Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Black Widow [Blue] #MM11 sells for $671 against $281 raw: a $390 spread, 2.4× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($610) 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.
