Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Obelisk the Tormentor [Prismatic Secret Rare] LPST-JP047 sells for $194 against $25.00 raw: a $169 spread, 7.8× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($124) 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.
