Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Stone Cold Steve Austin #4 sells for $1,304 against $365 raw: a $939 spread, 3.6× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($523) 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.
