Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Anderson Silva, Chris Leben [Silver] #46 sells for $1,165 against $113 raw: a $1,053 spread, 10× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($1,059) 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.
