Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Miesha Tate #TCAR-MT sells for $70.00 against $20.50 raw: a $49.50 spread, 3.4× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($64.00) clears the raw price after an economy-tier ~$25 fee, so a near-miss still comes out ahead. Centering is the usual reason a clean copy misses the 10 — measure it before you submit.
