Is Psylocke [Promo] worth grading?

Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Psylocke [Promo] sells for $89.00 against $8.00 raw: a $81.00 spread, 11× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($81.00) 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.
