Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Pokémon Breeder sells for $1,258 against $59.27 raw: a $1,198 spread, 21× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($201) 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.
