Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Mace Windu #149 sells for $33.00 against $0.44 raw: a $32.56 spread, 75× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($29.98) 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.
