Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 ユキワラシ sells for $194 against $4.67 raw: a $189 spread, 42× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($89.70) 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.
