Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A PSA 10 Wolverine [Promo Hand Cut] sells for $525 against $4.75 raw: a $520 spread, 111× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($34.03) 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.
