Do PCGS Authorized Dealers get a discount on Show Grading?

I know they get discounted fees for most tiers...

    Hmmm. 6 hours of silence.

    Not even the sound of the low spark of high heeled boys...

    The answer is yes, unless it is no.

    I would only assume that I pay the highest prices for services.

    South CA dealers just save on shipping (which can really add up) because they're given the privilege to walk their submissions into headquarters.

    I am not aware of any other 'perks' of being a PCGS authorized dealer...

    Except that's not much of a perk since those inserts sell for no premium.

    Well then, it is my honor to enlighten you:

    For PCGS Authorized dealers:

    They pay $40 each for Express service instead of $50
    They pay $25 each for Regular service instead of $30
    They pay $16 each for Economy service instead of $18
    They pay $12 each for Modern service instead of $14
    They pay $40 each for Mint Error service instead of $50
    They pay $40 each for Special Issues service instead of $50

    My question is about Show service...

    I'm just a little fish looking in through the window, but I wouldn't assume every dealer gets the same deal. I imagine the auction houses, large wholesale outfits, and crackout kings get negotiated contracts. That's how volume sales work in virtually every other market.
