Price history
Is it worth grading?
Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Dark Magician LN-53 sells for $2,811 against $151 raw: a $2,660 spread, 19× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($944) 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.
