Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Stephen Curry [Blue] #143 sells for $42.99 against $1.34 raw: a $41.65 spread, 32× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($27.99) 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.
