Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 J.K. Dobbins [Tie Dye] #310 sells for $169 against $90.00 raw: a $79.00 spread, 1.9× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($153) 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.
