Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 M Aggron-EX sells for $3,972 against $96.95 raw: a $3,875 spread, 41× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($227) 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.
