Besides, if you want them graded accurately, you should just send them to SGC.

Gonna disagree with you there. From PSA's website FAQ:

Q: How do I go about getting my cards/tickets graded by PSA?
A: Become a member of our Collectors Club. and enjoy the benefits of direct submission privileges. Once a member, please refer to your Collectors Club welcome package or the Submission Center for submission instructions. Some PSA Authorized Dealers will submit items on your behalf; please check with the Dealer to find out if this is a service they offer.

Q: How much does it cost to get cards graded by PSA?
A: You must be a Collectors Club member to submit cards directly to PSA. Once a member, the fees to have cards graded vary by the type of cards, values, quantity submitted and turnaround time. Please visit our Submission Center to view our complete Fee Schedule for PSA Services.

I thought PSA changed their policy about this. Here is a screen shot from their fee schedule page. Look at the bottom line. It notes that one must be a Collectors Club Member to use Bulk Services. It doesn't say that about the other services, so one would have to assume that you do not need to be a member to submit at the other service levels. Otherwise, why only note it about the Bulk Services?

Edited to add: I could be wrong. I haven't submitted anything to PSA in a few years. However, I thought I remember reading that change on the PSA message boards.
