  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.
