Is Rhamondre Stevenson #RPA-RS worth grading?

Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Rhamondre Stevenson #RPA-RS sells for $45.00 against $10.39 raw: a $34.61 spread, 4.3× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($41.00) 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.

Raw (NM): $10.39
Grade 9.5: $45.00
