Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Winged Kuriboh [1st Edition] TLM-EN005 sells for $550 against $8.63 raw: a $541 spread, 64× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($95.00) 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.
