Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Spider-Man [Red Prism] #153 sells for $134 against $18.50 raw: a $116 spread, 7.2× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($95.55) 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.
