Is it worth grading?

Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A PSA 10 Venusaur sells for $2,466 against $103 raw: a $2,364 spread, 24× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($347) 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.
