Is it worth grading?
Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Nidoking sells for $7,463 against $42.69 raw: a $7,421 spread, 175× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($152) 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.
