Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 DeVonta Smith [Silver Prizm] #RA-5 sells for $90.00 against $50.00 raw: a $40.00 spread, 1.8× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($82.00) 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.
