Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Mew ☆ δ sells for $13,200 against $3,500 raw: a $9,700 spread, 3.8× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($21,667) 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.
