Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Corey Dillon sells for $256 against $11.77 raw: a $244 spread, 22× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($51.45) 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.
