Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Stufful sells for $44.83 against $0.26 raw: a $44.57 spread, 172× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($30.01) 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.
