Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Andy Serkis as Kino Loy [Gold Refractor] #AU-AS sells for $205 against $115 raw: a $90.00 spread, 1.8× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($186) 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.
