Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Jose Canseco #72DB-JC sells for $62.00 against $20.75 raw: a $41.25 spread, 3.0× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($50.79) 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.
