Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Abra sells for $34.01 against $1.06 raw: a $32.95 spread, 32× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($31.37) 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.
