Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Red-Eyes Black Dragon [Ultimate Rare] QCCP-JP108 sells for $167 against $28.39 raw: a $139 spread, 5.9× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($139) 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.
