Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Arjun Nimmala #BAA-AN sells for $95.09 against $56.70 raw: a $38.39 spread, 1.7× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($87.76) 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.
