Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Saggi the Dark Clown sells for $451 against $6.89 raw: a $444 spread, 65× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($75.80) 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.
