Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Booster Pack sells for $58.00 against $15.50 raw: a $42.50 spread, 3.7× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($52.34) 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.
