Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Red Knight [Holofoil] #285 sells for $103 against $5.62 raw: a $97.38 spread, 18× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($93.51) 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.
