Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Berserk Dragon DCR-019 sells for $83.34 against $3.75 raw: a $79.59 spread, 22× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($55.00) 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.
