Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 ガブリアスEX sells for $178 against $35.33 raw: a $143 spread, 5.0× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($97.85) 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.
