Strong grading candidate — 4.1× premium in PSA 10
A PSA 10 ディアルガ sells for $4,640 against $1,127 raw: a $3,513 spread, 4.1× the ungraded price. A PSA 9 ($678) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Centering is the usual reason a clean copy misses the 10 — measure it before you submit.
