Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Dark Feraligatr sells for $2,109 against $375 raw: a $1,734 spread, 5.6× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($877) 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.
