RE: graded cards?
Look under the "Grading" tab and click on "grading faq" and click service level and fees. It will tell you how much per card depending on how many cards you send in, but don't forget there is also shipping and insurance fees as well.
Grading cards can definitely be worth the fees depending on why your grading the cards. If you're looking for resale then grading a modern base rookie card at an 8.5 to sell for $15 may not be worth the fees/shipping/insurance.
If you want to grade cards for your personal collection (for sentimental reasons) and don't care what the grade is then it's worth it, just depends on preference.

I forgot to mention high grade cards. If you have some cards that you think will grade very high like a 9.5 gem mint or even a 10 pristine (which is probably unlikely) and in some cases a 9 mint then it can be worth having them graded for protection and presentation, even if you're not trying to sell them.
hope this helps.
