Strong grading candidate — 7.1× premium in PSA 10
A PSA 10 ガブリアス sells for $143 against $20.00 raw: a $123 spread, 7.1× the ungraded price. A PSA 9 ($11.92) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Centering is the usual reason a clean copy misses the 10 — measure it before you submit.
