Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Christian McCaffrey [Cracked Ice] #6 sells for $74.00 against $25.01 raw: a $48.99 spread, 3.0× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($67.50) 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.
