Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Drake Maye #13 sells for $2,605 against $767 raw: a $1,838 spread, 3.4× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($1,055) 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.
