Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Jayden Daniels [Jersey Number] #389 sells for $1,815 against $1,537 raw: a $278 spread, 1.2× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($1,650) 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.
