Is Ghost-Spider #89 worth grading?

Marvel · Marvel 2024 Upper Deck Spider-Man Renditions Impel · full price guide →

Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Ghost-Spider #89 sells for $34.00 against $5.00 raw: a $29.00 spread, 6.8× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($31.25) 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): $5.00
Grade 9.5: $34.00
PSA 9: $31.25
Gem premium: 6.8×
