Is it worth grading?
Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Slimy HYMIE #584a sells for $39.99 against $3.49 raw: a $36.50 spread, 11× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($31.33) 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.
