Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Julio Rodriguez [Power Plaid Prizm] #40 sells for $237 against $23.99 raw: a $213 spread, 9.9× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($216) 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.
