Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A PSA 10 Alonzo Mourning [Row 1] #66 sells for $120 against $3.21 raw: a $117 spread, 37× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($60.44) 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.
