Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Emma Frost #64 sells for $93.00 against $16.30 raw: a $76.70 spread, 5.7× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($84.59) 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.
