Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Elly De La Cruz [Red Foil] #48 sells for $49.95 against $9.50 raw: a $40.45 spread, 5.3× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($38.83) 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.
