Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Dark Master - Zorc [1st Edition] DCR-082 sells for $150 against $6.93 raw: a $143 spread, 22× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($35.78) 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.
