I don't like PSA because I think that they charge too much for their services.

When I look at graders/authenticators, I don't look at how much I pay them, I look at this lovely measure:

I agree with you, but for most cards, they are not worth enough money in the first place to have them graded by PSA.

Just checked out both of their grading costs (I do not collect cards so this I don't know this off the top of my head) and PSA is currently grading cards for $8 per (which decreases with an order of 50+ cards) whereas KSA is charging $14 per that only decreases to $10.

The costs are much higher when you include shipping from Canada. It's like close to $100 all in for PSA.

For a card? No way.

Like $80. I have sent many away to be graded, so I know this.
