Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Jafar sells for $44.00 against $0.87 raw: a $43.13 spread, 51× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($64.97) 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.
