Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Kyurem sells for $1,010 against $4.67 raw: a $1,005 spread, 216× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($76.27) 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.
