Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Tom Brady #378 sells for $55,641 against $3,350 raw: a $52,292 spread, 17× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($8,074) 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.
