Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 ミミッキュVMAX sells for $133 against $43.28 raw: a $89.68 spread, 3.1× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($151) 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.
