An assumption is that all TPGs will charge on a sliding scale that charges higher $$$ for higher value cards. If they have a $15/card charge and "run" through the grading process, do they at least pause a little to grade a card that they are going to charge $500+ for encapsulation?
I looked at the PSA charges and it indicates $75 for a $1.5K card, $600 for a card valued at $9,999 (for walk through service). To me that's insanity. There's a $10K charge for grading a card value > $250K.
Sorry, I guess it's just sticker shock. It's been a long time since I looked at the PSA site for prices for grading.
