If it was, you just lost... 'cause there's only 1 guess...LOL. No, I'm helping some board members who aren't PSA members by sending in some of their cards and I'm trying to figure out how much it'll cost to ship anwhere from 10-15 PSA slabs.
10-15 regular size slabs should go in a much smaller box. That's a 2 lb. package. Flat Rate is more expensive, and the cards will need a lot more packing material.
I am able to put 10-15, with bubble wrap and peanuts, in a Small Flat Rate Priority Box for $4.95.
You can fit about 70 in a Medium Size FRB for $10.35.
Probably 100 - 125 in a Large FRB for $13.95.

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.
Okay, I just picked up some small flat rate boxes. If you put 15 slabbed cards in there will be VERY minimal room for buble wrap, in fact, the only way to fit 15 in is to stack them vertically with 8 on one side and 7 on the other. That leaves about 2" of room on the right hand side but none between the slabs and the box on the side that has 8 cards and very little room on the stack of 7. It looks as though it'd be risky to ship 15 at once. 10-12 looks fine though.
I've done it just as you stated ... 8 and 7 ... and have had no problems.
STAY HEALTHY!

I also think the Small Flat Rate box would work well.
Use Click N Ship from the USPS website and they add free delivery conformation. Total $4.80.

P.S. the USPS says you can load up to 70 pounds into this flat rate box! What would weigh 70 lbs? Gold, Kryptonite?
