If that's your primary concern, there used to be a much cheaper alternative wherein PSA would slab cards for $1 each without any flips. No grading done; just something they offered if people were only interested in preservation, such as yourself. It was never advertised as far as I recall, but they would do it on request. You probably had to give them a lot of material in order to facilitate such an arrangement. This was also a very long time ago and it's a safe bet they have far too much business to be bothered with this anymore.
If this sounds like it's of interest, you may wish to place phone calls to the various TPGs and inquire if any are still willing to do this at a reduced rate. I'm thinking they're all too tied up to consider it, but no harm in asking.
