Is Luke With Lightsaber [Foil] worth grading?

Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Luke With Lightsaber [Foil] sells for $84.00 against $20.00 raw: a $64.00 spread, 4.2× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($76.00) 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.
