Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Justin Jefferson [Autograph] #D21 sells for $197 against $143 raw: a $53.80 spread, 1.4× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($179) 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.
