Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Cradily sells for $67.04 against $9.52 raw: a $57.52 spread, 7.0× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($76.92) 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.
