Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Deadpool [Orange Foil] #26 sells for $135 against $54.80 raw: a $80.20 spread, 2.5× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($94.00) 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.
