Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Jonathan Kuminga #PRA-JKU sells for $72.00 against $36.14 raw: a $35.86 spread, 2.0× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($65.00) 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.
