Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Beast King Barbaros JUMP-EN032 sells for $92.21 against $10.63 raw: a $81.58 spread, 8.7× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($40.00) 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.
