PSA Crossover Service

I have a bunch of tobacco cards (T205 & T207) that I want to submit to PSA.....about 35 raw, and 17 more that are graded by SGC. I was just looking on PSA's website, and it looks like their minimum price for crossovers is $40 per card!

Is this correct? Does PSA really charge $40 per card for crossover service?

    Heard Nat Turner talk about liqbikity being highest on a crossover. If you have a minimum grade of 8 and PSA cracks the card and then sees a flaw that they couldn’t see in the slab - they can’t grade it an 8 and they can’t put it back in the slab. He said graders hate opining on a card that is still in a slab.

    By "liqbikity", do you mean liquidity, or liability? I think you mean "liability", but I could be wrong.

    I understand PSA's possible liability, but charging double for a crossover seems wrong.

    Also, all of my cards are 1's and 2's.

    I did mean liability - thanks for the correction.

    It's much more labor intensive than grading raw cards, as well as the liqbikity! Just raw dog them!!
