Will PSA grade 1993 Finest jumbo All-Stars?

I have the whole set (currently in penny sleeves/top loaders) and I was curious as to whether or not PSA will grade them (they're a bit warped but otherwise look pretty much flawless). Will they give you a discount if they grade the whole set? How much would it cost to grade all 33?

    What do they measure? That will determine what service they go under.

    Just under 5x7 I've never even seen graded ones here or on Ebay so I wonder if they don't do it.

    A discount for 33 cards? No.

    They would have to go under the Regular 10 day service at $15.00 a pop.

    You mean the fact it's a complete set doesn't count? No wonder there's no sets on the registry; it'd cost almost $500 just to grade, and I only paid $160 for the set! image

    So for a little under $750 you could have the #1 rated set.

    Just wait for the next $5 special.

    By default image Also, won't PSA refuse my order if they're in top loaders? That was the only decent holders I could find for them (I don't trust screw downs that are not recessed).

    I will say, they would look pretty sharp in PSA holders though; just like those giant Turkey Red cards someone here showed. I hope he completed his set! image As for gumbyfan's suggestion, if they'll do it for $5 each and don't mind them being in top loaders, I'll definetly go for it.

    Does anyone have a picture of what a jumbo all-star looks like graded? I want to also be sure it fits right and doesn't just bounce around in an oversized holder.

    Another alternative I'm considering is a custom frame job (there is a store around here that can make one). I was thinking of doing them all in one frame, in 6x5x6x5x6x5 formation (six on top row, five in next row, etc; similar to the pattern of stars in the US flag) with a green background felt, and done in such a way I can put the cards in the "holes" myself. About how much would something like this typically go for? I bet this too would make for a pretty nice display.
