Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A PSA 10 Magnus [Crystal Shard] #273 sells for $1,063 against $12.52 raw: a $1,050 spread, 85× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($109) 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.
