Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Kate Bishop 20th Anniversary #MA-28 sells for $321 against $32.53 raw: a $288 spread, 9.9× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($292) 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.
