Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Zlatan Ibrahimovic #SS-ZI sells for $219 against $147 raw: a $71.25 spread, 1.5× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($201) 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.
