Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Doriado's Blessing [1st Edition] TLM-EN043 sells for $120 against $0.60 raw: a $119 spread, 200× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($100) 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.
