Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A PSA 9 Unown [C] sells for $49.71 against $1.72 raw: a $47.99 spread, 29× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($49.71) 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.
