Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Dracule Mihawk sells for $37.56 against $0.85 raw: a $36.71 spread, 44× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($26.00) 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.
