Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A PSA 10 Kuriboh [1st Edition] MRD-E071 sells for $3,109 against $66.32 raw: a $3,043 spread, 47× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($330) 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.
