Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Leia Organa [Dathomir Red Refractor] #103 sells for $63.00 against $3.99 raw: a $59.01 spread, 16× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($57.00) 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.
