Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Crobat sells for $478 against $50.23 raw: a $428 spread, 9.5× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($91.82) 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.
