Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Connor Bedard / Taylor Hall [Gold] #OT-30 sells for $148 against $67.00 raw: a $81.00 spread, 2.2× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($134) 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.
