Does it refer to Beckett 'book value' or some other indicator? I believe some PSA criteria revolves around the amount the card(s) would be insured for in the mail, but if that were the case, couldn't someone send a real valuable card along and just insure it for $100? And, along those lines, is it the graded value that counts? What if you have a 'valuable' card that's in rougher shape, do you base its value on the card in general or specifically on what it would be 'worth' based on its final grade??
Thanks!

Someone could do that, but they would only be reimbursed $100. So that is the gamble they take.
When filling this out the first time with the help of a rep at the PSA table at a show years back I was even suggested to lower some values to lower my cost because some where just $10-$20 higher which bumped the cards to the next level.
