Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Enemy Controller OP23-EN002 sells for $140 against $18.90 raw: a $121 spread, 7.4× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($99.40) 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.
