Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 I:P Masquerena [Prismatic Secret Rare] LPST-JP023 sells for $446 against $64.00 raw: a $382 spread, 7.0× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($318) 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.
