Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Pinocchio [Black Wave Refractor] #113 sells for $602 against $465 raw: a $137 spread, 1.3× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($547) 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.
