Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Jalen Duren [Blue] #13 sells for $48.00 against $1.65 raw: a $46.35 spread, 29× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($44.00) 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.
