Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Exeggcute sells for $61.41 against $2.31 raw: a $59.10 spread, 27× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($29.96) 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.
