I would go with a smaller auction house like some of the ones already mentioned here if you want really good service.

Most of the auction houses who have an in with the grading companies will get the better cards graded unless you tell them not to. They do that to generate the most money for you as well as for them.

The collection you described will definitely get you a very low or no seller cost if you shop it around. The problem with any of them is that they will grade the better cards and likely lot up the rest of each set in a single listing and you will not like what that part of your collection brings.

Also, the process is long from beginning to end with the big auction houses.

Greg Morris brings very good money for raw cards on Ebay and does a good job with pictures. They will list every card in a set break as far as I know and although there will always be cards that fall below the Mendoza line, overall they do very well. If you really don't want to grade cards, they are a viable option.

The auction houses will run your complete sets just as they are if you insist on not grading(which they will charge you for)but complete sets overall are weak at present.

Some of the sets you mentioned such as the '33 Goudey will bring good money even raw but other sets will fall through the crack.

Good luck with your liquidation.
