Is Genie [Pink Refractor] #186 worth grading?

Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Genie [Pink Refractor] #186 sells for $32.00 against $3.26 raw: a $28.74 spread, 9.8× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($28.77) 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.
