Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A PSA 10 Shohei Ohtani [Orange Foil] #1 sells for $14,750 against $2,900 raw: a $11,850 spread, 5.1× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($3,337) 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.
