Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Spider-Man [Patterned] #MM1 sells for $123 against $70.83 raw: a $52.17 spread, 1.7× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($111) 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.
