Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 9 Eevee sells for $32.85 against $4.91 raw: a $27.94 spread, 6.7× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($32.85) 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.
