Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Happiness Is A [Pirate Win] #29 sells for $660 against $33.00 raw: a $627 spread, 20× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($600) 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.
