I don't think tiered pricing would work with Paul. It will take approximately the same amount of time to authenticate either "cheap" award (ie Friendship order) or more expensive one.
Paperwork takes fair amount of time as well, plus don't forget packing and trip to post office.
I'd estimate he invests comparable amount of time no matter regardless of the value of award, so why would he charge $50 vs $250 for the same work?
What could work - trying to negotiate custom deals directly with Paul (say award sells for $300 and paying $225 for a paper is a bit expensive).
He's been giving discounts in the past (ie. if you send him several awards - the price could be lower).
