Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Summoner of Illusions [1st Edition] LON-063 sells for $52.00 against $1.75 raw: a $50.25 spread, 30× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($46.94) 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.
