Exactly, depends what you value.
1) Do you want the most accurate grade? 2) Do you want the highest resale value? 3) Do you want to track your set collection progress on the most used website? 4) Do you want the most attractive frame/case? Or the most difficult to break case? 5) How much are you willing to spend per card, or are you willing to submit your cards with others to get a lower per unit grading cost?

I would go with SGC, unless you want to wait several months for PSA to get around to grading them.
Also, with SGC, when you submit your cards, there is a place on the submission form that allows you to have your cards graded as "authentic". If you don't check that box your card may be returned to you without being slabbed. (This is from the online submission form) Grading Service: Check here if you would like SGC to encapsulate any trimmed or color-enhanced card(that is authentic) with the "A" designation

To your question about should you take a low grade or an AUTH, most collectors prefer to have a number grade, even if it's low.
PSA will also slab cards as Authentic if you put "PLEASE SLAB ALL IF AUTHENTIC" on your submission form. Otherwise, if they cards are trimmed or recolored, or fixed in some way, they will return them unslabbed.

PSA is your best bet as they will bring the best price. No one plans on selling their cards, but eventually we all do.

For resale value unquestionably PSA. For quicker turnaround and a grade more consistent with what you expect (assuming you have a trained eye and have examined it thoroughly with loupe and black light) go with SGC. Seems like my cards always come back from PSA at least a grade or two lower than what I expected, especially since they’ve gone to the new hologram holders.
