Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Jirachi sells for $4,098 against $28.21 raw: a $4,070 spread, 145× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($180) 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.
