Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Jakub Dobes #726 sells for $422 against $55.84 raw: a $367 spread, 7.6× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($124) 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.
