Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Vanity's Fiend CDIP-EN017 sells for $2,830 against $83.77 raw: a $2,747 spread, 34× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($416) 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.
