Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Umbreon sells for $96,338 against $160 raw: a $96,178 spread, 602× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($7,098) 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.
