Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Umbreon sells for $16,674 against $160 raw: a $16,514 spread, 104× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($7,007) 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.
