Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Farfetch'd sells for $1,249 against $41.02 raw: a $1,208 spread, 30× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($246) 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.
