Hey Scott, it depends... I sent my first order in a month ago. It was 18 cards with a 10 day turn around. Total cost with shipping and grading was approximately $21.50 per card ( I always calculate on a per card basis). It can be made cheaper by sending more cards and choosing a longer turnaround time. The order I sent in was all very high end stuff though so it is easy to recoup the cost when one thinks of potential sale value added. I would say I easily added 25 percent value. Just be honest with yourself before you send, inspect the cards very very carefully before sending, if you're looking for a high grade and its got a slight imperfection on a corner its probably better to keep it raw. However, if you are looking for a certain grade you can mark it "minimum grade 9" and if the card is a 8.5 they send it back raw, charge you a $7.50 reviewing fee and give you an explanation of why it didnt make the 9 grade.
Hope this answers your question....see ya at the next break. Lol
