Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Farfetch'd sells for $43.00 against $2.70 raw: a $40.30 spread, 16× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($36.95) 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.
