Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A PSA 10 Diglett sells for $467 against $28.93 raw: a $438 spread, 16× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($97.82) 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.
