Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Unown [G] sells for $116 against $24.58 raw: a $91.29 spread, 4.7× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($64.77) 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.
