PSA/DNA for (3) Ripken Cards - Authentication Only **FINISHED PRODUCT**

I've never done the PSA/DNA thing before, so I have no idea how to figure out the cost. Could someone maybe point me in the right direction? My goal is to have all three of these cards slabbed authentic. No grades.
I want the orange/red flip, not the blue flip. For the life of me I can't find the difference between the two. I just like the eye appeal of the orange/red flip. I'm not interested in getting the card or auto "graded".
Since I really have no idea how this works, I thought about driving 2 hours to the Pittsburgh Show on May 17th to have them done in person since PSA will have a booth there. What I really need to do is figure out how much it's going to cost me. I see the fee for Cal Jr. and Cal Sr. are $30 each. Not sure how much Bill will cost. Are there any other fees I'm not seeing besides the $30 per card?
My goal is to have all three cards slabbed with consecutive cert numbers, frame them, and give them to my Dad for his birthday. I acquired the Bill TTM back in 1989 when I was 12 years old. The other two were ebay pick ups in the past 6 months or so.
Thank you very much for any input you have.

Any autographed card with a declared value under $500. Autographed cards with a declared value over $500 must be submitted under higher service levels. Declared value rules apply.

If you wanted the blue flip, it would be the more expensive stuff on the PSADNA site.

TELL ME THOUGH YOU ARE PUTTING "JR" in the middle when it gets framed.

My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 2 (2003). My son was diagnosed with Type 1 when he was 17 on December 31, 2009. We were stunned that another child of ours had been diagnosed. Please, if you don't have a favorite charity, consider giving to the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)

On a side note...do you and Donovan live together? I think you have the same kitchen counters.

It's being shipped to Maryland today, and it's due to arrive on Saturday. It's going to be from both my Brother and myself, so he's gonna love it!
Excellent end results. It's always nice when a plan comes together.

Your dad is definitely going to pop a cork when he sees it!
You do realize that it's going to be pretty tough to come up with something to top that for next year, don't you?
Anyway, congrats again on such a thoughtful and creative gift for your dad!
God bless you both!

Good Job
This should go well with the gift I gave him and my Brother at Christmas 2002. I made one for myself too

Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.
