Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Oscar Piastri [Checker Flag X-fractor] #113 sells for $31.97 against $3.57 raw: a $28.40 spread, 9.0× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($31.23) 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.
