Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 B.E.S. Crystal Core CRV-EN021 sells for $550 against $15.00 raw: a $535 spread, 37× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($52.00) 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.
