Is Daredevil [Radiance] #5 worth grading?

Marvel · Marvel 2015 Upper Deck Vibranium · full price guide →

Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Daredevil [Radiance] #5 sells for $110 against $63.44 raw: a $46.56 spread, 1.7× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($100) 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.

Raw (NM): $63.44
Grade 9.5: $110
PSA 9: $100
Gem premium: 1.7×
