Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A PSA 10 Harry Dorish [White Back] #167 sells for $1,850 against $12.90 raw: a $1,837 spread, 143× 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.
