Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Majestic Star Dragon [Ultimate Rare 1st Edition] SOVR-EN040 sells for $829 against $142 raw: a $687 spread, 5.8× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($224) 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.
