Is Havok [Rainbow Foil] #41 worth grading?

Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Havok [Rainbow Foil] #41 sells for $75.00 against $4.71 raw: a $70.29 spread, 16× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($68.00) 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.

Raw (NM): $4.71
