Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Aggron-EX sells for $748 against $44.05 raw: a $704 spread, 17× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($160) 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.
