Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Imposter Oak's Revenge sells for $698 against $14.02 raw: a $684 spread, 50× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($92.64) 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.
