Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Hitmonlee sells for $3,762 against $90.50 raw: a $3,671 spread, 42× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($317) 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.
