I had 28 to submit, so the monthly special worked out to be better for me as long as it cost me less than $32 to ship them to California, which it did.

But if you have between 10-25 cards (or cards worth more than $100), the National is probably the way to go.

I also wasn't sure about the lines at the PSA booth either. Don't want to spend too much time standing in line to submit cards!

Lastly, my understanding is that the submittal process at the National works the same way as by mail - just fill out the form (with payment) and drop them off at the PSA booth instead of shipping.

From the PSA site:

National Take-Home Collectors Club Special:
$7.00 Card Special– 10 Card Minimum Quantity Required

For All Years, cards valued under $150 each
Sport and non-sport cards
Regular size, thick/patch, Coins/Pins, and Tallboy cards are accepted
Excluding Supersized, T3's, and Autographed Cards
For Collectors Club members only
Turnaround time approximately 50 business days/varies with demand

Hope this helps! Dave
