Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Genesect-EX sells for $488 against $11.20 raw: a $477 spread, 44× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($55.36) 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.
