Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 ラティオス sells for $1,110 against $250 raw: a $860 spread, 4.4× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($293) 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.
