Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 8 Mew-EX sells for $164 against $88.56 raw: a $75.84 spread, 1.9× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($143) 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.
