glchen,

That is the EXACT type of information I was looking for. I knew I could get basic info from SGC's website about the grading service and fees but I wanted to know the extra cost for postage and handling and anything else I should be made aware of.

Like I said before, not counting B18 blankets, S74 silks, pinbacks and a few oddball items, I don't have a lot of pre-war cards but I do have some big name players. So, overall, I have at least 40 items I would like to eventually get graded. Because of who the player is, the set the card is from and by guessing the grade, I see that my approximate cost would be between $1,000 to $2,000 dollars for postage, insurance and grading fees if I sent each card in individually for grading.

Your info gives me a better idea of how I should go about grouping items when I want to get them graded and thus lowering my overall cost per card.

I think I will call SGC this week and talk to them about my cards and see what they say.

Thanks for the help everyone,

David
