$400.00 return shipping equates to 1.33% of the package’s total value for shipping expenses and insurance. Is this reasonable? I don’t know and have never shipped this many cards or for this much money. Maybe $400.00 is the correct rate. I have no clue. Just trying to understand and rationalize the $400.00 amount.

Out of curiosity, what is the total declared value of all cards? Maybe it would be cheaper breaking the total submission into four smaller ones of around 50 cards each? No clue. We appreciate all the hard work and headaches that come with running these submissions groups, Bobby.
The total declared value is 68k. What you say makes perfect sense. Break down one huge order into 3, 70 card orders. Value each one under their $25k threshold, and walla. Problem solved. The only negative part is I already entered all the cards. It is a pain in the ass to delete cards and reenter everything. I emailed SGC. Let's see what they say. It's a shame they have no phone number to speak to a living human.
