Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 9 Mismagius sells for $27.00 against $0.63 raw: a $26.37 spread, 43× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($27.00) 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.
