Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Charizard G LV.X sells for $96,000 against $451 raw: a $95,550 spread, 213× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($2,414) 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.
