Large quantity, variable values. Send them all in? 0

[Dennis Respecki]

I have about 81 pretty decent cards (looked them up on Ebay and Mavin) which were in sleeves since new.  Do I send them ALL in at once?  The online form wants info for each and every card it appears?  Oh boy.   Or should I send in small amounts at a time?   Never did this before...

Thanks for any help!

Anyone with experience with multiple cards at once?  Thanks..

you can send them all in together but it depends on when you want them back... you can submit bulk and not see them until sometime in 2022 or you can pay up and get them back sooner. up to you to figure out how much you want to spend on the grading process.

Do I have to state a value for each and every one? (fill out the shipping form thing 81 times?)   Thanks!

How can I state a value if they have not been graded??  I don't understand.

I was told by CGC you estimate the value of a card in its "raw" state and don't guess the grade of the card to estimate a value.

Hmmm, I have no idea... One could be $10 or $500 depending on grade..  Oh boy.

Assuming that it's lost, it's just the insured value.

Personally, I would not send all of your cards at once just because of the risk. I mostly deal with comics, but during the Damndemic, I took some time to get some of my Pokemon cards graded. Consider sending 50 at a time for bulk rate.

This is silly.  I've sent packages containing 1600 cards, with my average being about 400.

 

Send them all in at once.

 

Fill out the shipping form for each card.

 

Do your best guess for the cards.  Guess on the lower range so you can get into the cheaper service, as it's very very unlikely CGC will dispute the value of a card you submit.

Silly? Uh yeah ok...

Since your snip at my personal recommendation comes into play, sending 1400 cards at once is silly in my opinion. 🤨

Also take into consideration grading in bulk is near a calendar year to get your cards back.
