Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 W:P Fancy Ball [Starlight Rare] MAMO-EN028 sells for $432 against $58.00 raw: a $374 spread, 7.4× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($283) 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.
