Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Wobbuffet sells for $7,900 against $3.16 raw: a $7,897 spread, 2500× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($38.89) 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.
