how to grade cheaply?
So, I've decided I want to grade my HOF RC PC. Obviously since most of them are older, I want to use PSA. Now my question is, what is the best way to grade through them to get the best bang for my buck? Thanks for any help, I've never used them before!

A lot at once. The more the cheaper. Get a group of trustworthy traders and send a bunch at once.

Go the group sub route. I don't know how many PSA submitters are lurking on the Beckett forums, but statistically speaking there must be SOME. I'm BGS all the way myself, so I wouldn't know what direction to point you.
If not the Beckett forum, investigate other hobby related forums. But you might find one here.

Group subs are the best way to go. But, make sure it's someone trustworthy. Since vintage isn't serial numbered they can easily be swapped out for low grade cards by some dirtbag. Make sure and scan your cards high res front and back so you know exactly where any stains/soft corners/creases are so you know if you got the same card back.
