Is Beat, Bladesman Fur Hire [1st Edition] DASA-EN017 worth grading?

Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Beat, Bladesman Fur Hire [1st Edition] DASA-EN017 sells for $70.00 against $11.98 raw: a $58.02 spread, 5.8× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($63.54) 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.
