    For some reason, the number $35 is in my head?

    When BBCE made the post they said since cards were $35, but their special was $15, so I do believe $35 is correct.

    $35 to $250 depending on value of card.

    Isn't there a price chart anywhere? If you spend $35 ...I believe that is for 1 card valued under $500. That's beyond expensive. How about cards over $500?

    Steve,
    The only prices I see are for bulk.

    $35 per card is the correct price. Yes, it is expensive, but it's for on-site grading. It's always that much at these shows.

    Number of Cards PSA On-site Price Per Card
    10...................................$25
    20...................................$20
    50...................................$17.50
    100.................................$15
    200.................................$12

    Not sure what you mean Mickey.

    The way I read it, is if you want a cheaper price (not 35-250) then you need to submit 10
    cards to get the lower price. (25) each.

    Carol was online a moment ago, PM her and ask for clarification. On site grading is expensive.

    You after all get your cards back by the end of the show if not sooner.


    Good for you.

    They always seem to stay busy, so there must be plenty of people submitting at that price.

    Steve,
    1 card....How much? Valued at $800, $1300, $2400, $5000+, PSA 8 1933 Goudey Ruth for review. Is there not a chart like with their normal pricing? Is a $1500 card like $60 to submit?

    I believe the breakdown would follow the regular grading fee chart:

    If a card valued at $1999 can be submitted for $35 at the show...that is a good deal.

    Southsider is correct with one adjustment.

    The $35 per card is for cards valued from $1 - $1999.

    If you have 10 cards or more valued at $1 - $499 each you can then take advantage of the bulk pricing.

    The Bulk pricing and the $35 service are for Show Service which means they will be done by the end of the show Sunday (not end of the show that day).

    When you drop off your submission, the staff there will be able to give you an idea of what the turnaround time currently is so be sure to ask them. For reference, at past Nationals the turnaround time was approximately 24-36 hours.

    Service levels of $60 or higher are approximately 2 hours.
