Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Dragon Master Knight 15AX-JPM34 sells for $116 against $7.37 raw: a $108 spread, 16× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($35.98) 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.
