Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Christian Pulisic [Maroon] #201 sells for $183 against $120 raw: a $63.00 spread, 1.5× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($167) 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.
