Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Monster Reincarnation [Ultimate Rare 1st Edition] RDS-EN045 sells for $366 against $42.39 raw: a $323 spread, 8.6× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($134) 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.
