Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Gyaku-Gire Panda [1st Edition] DCR-021 sells for $722 against $13.69 raw: a $708 spread, 53× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($76.74) 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.
