Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Captain Marvel [Refined] #2 sells for $57.00 against $24.99 raw: a $32.01 spread, 2.3× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($52.00) 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.
