Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Matt Boldy [Acetate] #201 sells for $1,506 against $785 raw: a $721 spread, 1.9× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($1,369) 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.
