Is it worth to have cards graded for my PC? You can check my bucket to look at a few of my cards.

Its up to you, since there are for your PC you probably wont be looking to sell. But Grading is one of the best ways to protect and preserve your cards. If you have the extra dough to get them graded, I'd say go for it.

I have never done it before..how much is it per card? Also you wouldnt be worried about a poor grade? Even though its for my PC...they may be for sale one day.

At the top of the page, there is a grading tab. Click it. They have all the info on that page. They also have monthly specials. There's a tab for that too on their page.

Each month they have a different special. But if you call customer service, they also have a first time customer special. Well if they are for PC, i wouldn't worry about a low grade. But if its something you may sell in the future, then I'd only grade cards that you think would get a good grade. Examine the card and see if any scracthes, sharp corners, its centered.

I buy cards already Beckett Graded for my PC. I buy some raw in hopes that they will Beckett grade nicely.

If you're worried about a poor grade, you can set a minimum. That way, if the card doesn't meet your required grade they won't slab it. The only down side is, that you'll still be charged for it.

Here's the link to the Grading page:

I hope that this is helpful to you.

I'm about to get some done for the first time. I will send cards in but if I'm worried about the grade I will put a minimum "don't grade unless it's 8.5 or higher" on the card or If you are worried about a grade, but you want the protection of a case, then you can just get them authenticated. They put them in the case the only difference is that it has a blue tag in the holder.
