Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 9 Plusle sells for $180 against $19.57 raw: a $160 spread, 9.2× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($180) 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.
