Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Trident Dragion [Ultimate Rare 1st Edition] RGBT-EN043 sells for $1,413 against $55.23 raw: a $1,358 spread, 26× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($207) 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.
