Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A SGC 10 Armed Dragon LV7 SD1-ENDE1 sells for $99.00 against $16.04 raw: a $82.96 spread, 6.2× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($89.44) 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.
