Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Chris Webber [1st Day Issue] #224 sells for $405 against $19.99 raw: a $385 spread, 20× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($88.01) 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.
