I have a couple submission questions, help??

BigRedMachine

I just renewed my subscription and was getting ready to send in my six freebies. I have a couple of other cards I want graded and didn't know the exact way to do it.

The first two are hand signed cards from 2001 of Joe Montana and Steve Young. Although I believe these cards were available directly from Topps, the two I bought are hand signed. They come with a COA from tristar so I believe they are legit. Is the cost to have these cards authenticated and graded $20?? There is a place on the order form that says "AUTOGRAPHED CARD GRADING & AUTHENTICATION", is that what I want?? The more I look around the website, the more confused I get.

Another card I want graded and authenticated by PSA is a 2001 Quantum Leaf Autograph of Fran Tarkenton. It is from the 2006 Hawaii Trade Conference. IT IS CURRENTLY ENCASED IN A BECKETT HOLDER. I assume it is legit, too, but there is no grade given. How do I go about getting it graded and in a PSA holder??? Do I send it in the case?? Do I crack it and then send it in??? What is the fee for this one??

My final question, can I send all these cards in on the same order as long as I fill out seperate sheets?? Can I send in all the cards with different orders together in the same box?? Can I total up the seperate charges and seperate shipping and handling but pay for it all in one lump sum??

I'll try to get a scan up soon but my usual image host isn't working now.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks guys, Shawn.

for auto cards read the psa submission guidelines.

"Autographed cards dated pre-1998 and/or those not directly from manufacturer must be sent through the Autographed Card Grading and Authentication Service (fee may vary depending on card value, see listed restrictions and requirements). Autographed cards dated 1998 and later (direct from manufacturer or previously authenticated by PSA/DNA) may be sent through any of the listed services (note restrictions and requirements for each level)."

This is straight from PSA. So if your cards which were issued after 1998 were Factory issued autos they are submitted like a regular card. For cards pre-1998, regardless if its a factory issued auto they have to be submitted under the PSA/DNA listing for auto'd cards. This is a $20 fee to have them graded and cert. as long as the declared value is at a certain limit. Just look it up in the PSA submission center link.

for your other questions.

cards submitted under different service levels have to be on their own invoice. you can ship them to psa in one box, but you will have to pay seperate return shipping. psa ships out orders when they are ready. since you would have different service times they will come back in separate boxes.
