Is Kevin Garnett #32 worth grading?

Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Kevin Garnett #32 sells for $886 against $3.99 raw: a $882 spread, 222× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($805) 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.
