Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Deadpool [Blue Precious Metal Gems] #27 sells for $3,520 against $2,500 raw: a $1,020 spread, 1.4× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($3,200) 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.
