Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Pedri #MB-P sells for $330 against $225 raw: a $105 spread, 1.5× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($300) 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.
