Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Secreterion Dragon [Starlight Rare] DUAD-EN037 sells for $318 against $45.74 raw: a $273 spread, 7.0× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($232) 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.
