Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Floyd Little sells for $62.77 against $9.15 raw: a $53.62 spread, 6.9× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($37.00) 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.
