Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Tri-Horned Dragon [1st Edition] LOB-E000 sells for $165 against $61.77 raw: a $103 spread, 2.7× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($150) 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.
