Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Zoroark-GX sells for $111 against $25.99 raw: a $84.78 spread, 4.3× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($51.81) 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.
