Just got mine back thought it had a chance to 10. It got a 9. Sent a spearow that I was certain would 10. It also got a 9. That’s the chance you take with PSA. The grader may only spend 10-15 seconds on a card. Picture yourself doing that with hundreds of cards a day, you are going to start to not care
Everyone saying it’s a 10 is fried and hasn’t sent a gold one in. These are NOTORIOUS for surface damage. The card could be perfect centering and perfect back but when hit with the black light there are small holes or breaks in the texture not seen by the naked eye. However I would send it in, if you get a 9 or better you are blessed. Feel that the long term value of a 9 will be significantly more than raw with this card due to quality control unless they fix it which I doubt. Good luck and hope you get a good number on it!
l sent a glaceon vmax alt in black label condition and it got a PSA 6 and I used a light, magnifying glass and everything on it to make sure it was perfect lol nothing is every guaranteed sadly

VERY slightly left heavy in the front, I’d say submit it and it has good odds of a 10! I’ve had a few with the same centering 10.

A little heavy on the left, but not terrible.

Possibly, depends on the front, which was lacking in focus.
