To crack or not to crack....

I was going through my dupes (refractors only) and have about 25 or so that are PSA 9 or lower. I think I know what the resounding answer will be, but I want some reassurance: do you think I'll get better $ if I crack open those that are 9 and lower and sell them raw, or should I sell 'em slabbed?

BTW, all are Griffeys....

    Honestly, in my experience as a player collector, refractors that aren't graded GEM MINT, no matter who the TPG is, seem to sell for less than their raw counterparts.

    One man's opinion.

    Mint 9s, I'd keep in cases, anything less, I'd crack.
