Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Jonah Heim #PPA-JH sells for $261 against $33.89 raw: a $227 spread, 7.7× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($238) 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.
