Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Masked HERO Dark Law MZMU-EN070 sells for $171 against $20.94 raw: a $150 spread, 8.2× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($104) 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.
