Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Darth Maul's Assets [Aqua Refractor] #AM-4 sells for $40.00 against $2.25 raw: a $37.75 spread, 18× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($36.00) 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.
