Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Shedinja sells for $2,633 against $2.12 raw: a $2,631 spread, 1242× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($45.72) 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.
