Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Donovan Mitchell [Uranus] #PPU-4 sells for $168 against $91.75 raw: a $76.25 spread, 1.8× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($153) 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.
