Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Jayson Tatum [Earth] #PPE-1 sells for $200 against $42.52 raw: a $157 spread, 4.7× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($99.00) 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.
