Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Koga's Weezing sells for $93.11 against $5.65 raw: a $87.46 spread, 16× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($45.08) 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.
