Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Kabe & Muftak #70 sells for $43.00 against $6.99 raw: a $36.01 spread, 6.2× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($39.50) 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.
