Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Spider-Man #7 sells for $300 against $7.65 raw: a $292 spread, 39× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($38.23) 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.
