Is Diglett worth grading?

Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 8 Diglett sells for $251 against $130 raw: a $122 spread, 1.9× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($202) 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.
