Card's worth in order to pay grading fee??

leadoff4

With the new $8 special, I'm trying to decide what's worth getting graded and what isn't. For instance, I have a '67 Kaline ,'67 Whitey Ford and '58 Aparicio ASthat I'm pretty sure will be 7s. SMR for both '67s is $30, and SMR for Aparicio on 7 is $35. I have $5 each in them and basically you can count $10 per card after shipping/insurance etc. So, if I have $15 in each and SMR is $30/35 is it worth getting them graded? They probably won't sell for much over 50% SMR will they? Thoughts are appreciated. Basically I'm in need of some decent 50s-70s cards to get graded. Here's what I have so far and what I think they'll grade in parentheses.
58 Aparicio AS(7)
67 Kaline(7)
67 Ford(7)
64 F. Robinsonx2(7)
64 Sox Sockers(7)
64 NL ERA Ldrs. (6/7)
58 Mays(5)
63 E. Stautner(7/8 was SGC 86)
56 A. Fowler(7/8)
56 D. Rhodes(7/8)
56 B. Hofman(7/8)
56 B. Morgan(7/8)
72 Seaver IA(8)
74-75 NBA Scoring Ldrs. #1(9 was SGC 92)
69 Bench(6)
68 Rose(7 was BVG 7)
63 Pride of NL(6 was BVG 5 w/Cent. 4, Corners 7.5, Edge 9, Surface 8...old BVG slab 2001 or 02)

Yes.

But, if you could easily sell them raw for about $15+/-, your % gain would be comparable and you
could avoid some work.

Also, some cards bring more/less than SMR.

And, if you are not contemplating selling the graded cards, you may prefer having them in slabs
for protection and display.

Grading is good for more reasons than resale value.

Another option might be to wait for a cheaper special; eventually, one is likely to come along.

also, some raw has been doing quite well on ebay lately, others not so hot
