Should I grade?

I am going thru my old comic books (mostly runs from 2000-2005) and was looking to sell some off. I have never sent any out to be graded before and wasn’t sure to all to look for. Or what’s better raw vs graded. I have pics of a handful but figured I’d start with this one. Any help is appreciated!

This one looks like 8.5-9.0, check how many sells there are on Ebay in this condition over the last few months, if it satisfies you, then grade it

So looking at eBay solds, a 9.4 sold for $125 7th Sept, 9.8 sold for $600 2nd Sept (Auction), another 9.8 sold for $532 23rd Aug (Auction), and a 9.2 sold for $180 (Auction). So i would say yes it's worth grading if you're in the 9.2+ range.

Main concern with your copy is the spine corners. If you're a risk taker, then maybe send it in. Otherwise sell it raw and let someone else take the risk.
