Is it worth grading?
Strong grading candidate — 17× premium in PSA 10
A PSA 10 Metapod sells for $145 against $8.58 raw: a $136 spread, 17× the ungraded price. A PSA 9 ($11.99) only about breaks even after fees, so the case rests on gemming. Centering is the usual reason a clean copy misses the 10 — measure it before you submit.
