Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 What Remains [Green Shimmer Refractor] #1 sells for $111 against $60.15 raw: a $50.85 spread, 1.8× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($100) 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.
