Is Hulk #H-2 worth grading?
Marvel · Marvel 1991 Universe Hologram · full price guide →
Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Hulk #H-2 sells for $285 against $8.99 raw: a $276 spread, 32× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($259) 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.
