Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Junior Caminero #HFA-31 sells for $700 against $111 raw: a $590 spread, 6.3× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($240) 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.
