Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Charizard G LV. X #143 sells for $26,537 against $238 raw: a $26,300 spread, 112× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($2,329) 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.
