Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Green Goblin #15 sells for $1,200 against $2.81 raw: a $1,197 spread, 427× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($1,000) 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.
