Is Daredevil #9 worth grading?

Marvel · Marvel 2013 Fleer Retro · full price guide →

Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Daredevil #9 sells for $2,497 against $3.97 raw: a $2,493 spread, 629× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($2,270) 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.

Raw (NM): $3.97
Grade 9.5: $2,497
