Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Pokémon Park sells for $95.03 against $48.32 raw: a $46.71 spread, 2.0× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($101) 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.
