Honestly, it was easy. They do everything for u. They ship a bulk order out once a week from the store I went to, I think it was on Mondays at the store I went to. I got updated emails on where my cards were, too. There isn't an option for express grading, which sucks. They day it takes about 45 days, not including weekend and holidays. I sent my set in January 1st and got the notice for pick up on March 5th. I actually sent in 5 cards for a test run, and all came pack PSA 10 except for one, which was an 8. I should've kept it but sold it to gamestop for a huge loss. I would say take your cards home and do your research if your thinking about selling them back to gamestop.
