Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Togepi sells for $416 against $33.35 raw: a $383 spread, 12× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($185) 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.
