Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Space hero no more #49 sells for $41.00 against $2.84 raw: a $38.16 spread, 14× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($37.50) 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.
