Raw value estimated between $15 to $30. Graded (CGC 9.4/9.6) value estimated between $50 to $90 depending on market fluctuations.
Recent Sales
Recent sales for The Amazing Spider-Man #363 in Near Mint condition range consistently around $20 to $40 for raw copies and up to $80 for graded 9.4 to 9.8 copies.
Grading Recommendation
Unless grading as part of a larger submission to maximize value or preserve personal collection grade, raw condition value may not justify the grading fees for a 9.4, though a 9.8 could yield a modest return.
