Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Arcanine G sells for $229 against $22.00 raw: a $207 spread, 10× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($79.68) 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.
