Is it worth grading?
Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Poliwag sells for $156 against $19.37 raw: a $136 spread, 8.0× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($46.27) 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.
