Question about grading

Perhaps someone can answer this so i don't have to wait for CS to open. I am taking advantage of the $5 set registry special and submitting 29 cards so not all fit on one submission form. Do I have to enter a separate shipping charge on each form so instead of paying something like $23 if I could combine it or do I have to pay twice as much (about $38)? Also do I have to send it registered or is that what they recommend? I usually use a bubble mailer cause I don't have that many cards at once and a box seems like a wate. sometimes the PO gives me a hard time saying they can't ship that kind of packaging registered which of course is complete bs since I have done it before. I also have 1 crossover I am thinking of doing would that have to go on a third submission form and then i have to pay a this shipping charge? I hope not having to pay a separate shipping charge on each form seems rather excessive.

Thanks

    All you need is to print this out Linky

    Good luck with your submission!

    Oh yeah, about the shipping, you can do registered but it could take like 2 weeks or something like that.

    I use USPS Priority mail with signature confirmation and have had no problems. A buddy of mine told me he used that method a million times so I did too and there was no problem at all. And the best part is that it takes 2-3 days only image And they also have to sign for it.

    But I would suggest you use a Priority mail box for your cards to be protected the best way.

    Only the crossover would need it's own form and separate shipping.

    I always send registered mail. also remember to mark the outside of the box
    the service level you are using.

    Last time I sent in 106 cards I simply made my own form from #76 thru 106

    Good luck with your grades!

    Thanks. Another question, I just noticed that the registry special mentions 1972-2002 so i guess the few cards I had from 03-07 I can't use the special and the cheapest i can get for those is $15 unless I wait till I have 100 cards to send and use a bulk level. Also, do you have to put the stickers on the plastic sleeves.. that really is a pain. I have only done 2 PSA orders so far, mostly because most of my good stuff is newer. Unfortunately most of my 70's cards are not in good enough condition to make grading profitable.

    Thanks, you replied before I had a chance to edit my message. Do they really make you do the stickers.. that is a huge pain. Looks like I will have to redo my submission forms cause I had the 03-07 stuff on there but I used the manual forms not realizing I can use the one you sent me and get 50 on there. I have to see if it will allow you to type in the info. That would make it easier.

    I always use a sticker, but many here say they do not.
