Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Ravage [Crystal Shard] #283 sells for $160 against $5.99 raw: a $154 spread, 27× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($145) 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.
