Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Pangoro sells for $41.00 against $0.32 raw: a $40.68 spread, 128× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($39.99) 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.
