Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Novak Djokovic [Refractor] #AIV-NDC sells for $1,099 against $493 raw: a $607 spread, 2.2× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($999) 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.
