Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Toxicroak-EX sells for $1,674 against $22.77 raw: a $1,652 spread, 74× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($141) 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.
