Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Dark Necrofear LN-14 sells for $845 against $14.45 raw: a $831 spread, 59× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($82.40) 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.
