TL;DR The coin I purchased above was $290 with free shipping.  I had $28.00 in eBay bucks bringing my final purchase price down to $262.
Thanks so much for the reply.  I certainly don't mind sharing and running through the calcs and thought process I used to determine why this was a decent buy for me.  Disclaimer...when I say "you" in my response, I just mean the generic "you".
The dealer I'd buy the Proofs from is Govmint.com.  They have them in stock for $99.95 with free shipping over $149.00.  If you've got your rabbit's foot, four-leaf clover and your fingers crossed and decided to buy just one to send in yourself for grading, shipping from Govmint.com is $9.95 bringing your coin purchase to $109.90.  As you did and as I had considered doing, I'd buy two and send them in.  At that point, your coin purchase is $199.90.  Grading for modern world coins with NGC is $17/coin.  
So let's say you buy one, send it in, your all in price (not including shipping to get it to NGC) is $126.90.  Should your coin come back PF69 then you would have been better off buying the same coin, same grade with the unique label like the one above (which I think is awesome) for $119.00 with free shipping from MCM. If the one coin came back PF70, well...bully for you and go buy a lotto ticket while you're at it.  Me, I'm a glass-half-empty person and with my luck, it'd be PF69.
If you bought two, your all in price (not including shipping to get the coins to NGC...which would be what, $5-$10?) is $233.90.  If you're lucky, you get two PF70s back and you can keep one or both but likely sell one and recoup your costs.  If you're unlucky, there's the chance you get two PF69s back and you still don't have the PF70 you wanted to add to your collection in the first place (so you either give up at that point or commit more of your resources and time to pursue the PF70). In my search of the PF70, I did notice the PF69s are in pretty abundant supply so you wouldn't be able to command a significant premium should you try to sell and start the PF70 quest anew.  You also could have purchased two of the MCM PF69s with the special labels unavailable to all but the bulk/dealer submitters for $238 with free shipping.  Again, glass-half-empty, I'd get two PF69s.  
The coin I purchased above was $290 with free shipping.  I had $28.00 in eBay bucks bringing my final purchase price down to $262.  So for me, it was worth spending an extra $29 to get the coin I want in the condition I want with the label I want.  I understand if you bought multiples and didn't get the result you wanted you could sell those and try again and potentially not be out any money but for $29, it's not worth the hassle (and for my collection, I don't want multiples in this series...I'm happy with my single PF70).  I also had a pretty difficult time even finding a PF70 for sale so the market right now if you wanted to go that route is slim pickin's.
So that's my logic, flawed or otherwise.  When the RM releases the Griffin proof (whenever that is this year), I plan to not be so indecisive this go-around and quickly snag a PF70 from MCM hoping they have the same special label with an image of the Griffin on it like the Lion above.

3 2oz S1 lunar BU
Put in some bids on some overnight ebay auctions and won 3 at reasonable cost.
So these will go with the 2 I already have and so I guess I'm collecting them now
If anyone has any they are looking to sell............
 

I got in the mail today my 2017 Silver Krugerrand

Thank you @Jester and @Micky9776! I'm very glad with them! It's true that the MS70 also has a very nice price and i doubted, but need to make choices... So many nice coins to buy...  

I couldn't resist (damn you @Pete  So i bought a couple of these beauties:

Great deals on those slabbed/graded horsies!  Even the MS70s EMK has are quite reasonable when you see what the raw coins are selling for elsewhere.  Nice pick up!

Nice pick ups @PolarPanda the 2014 is a great design

Just bought a 1/4 oz queens beast lion, I know I'm a bit late to start with the QB series but I'm not to sure if I will buy the rest, the lion is my favourite so far. This takes me one step closer to my 100g goal!

Bought this First Day of Issue graded Krugerrand for 129 USD 
 

I'd been looking for a PF/PR70 graded 2017 Queen's Beast Lion Proof for a while but none were to be found.  I considered buying a few from the RM myself and sending them to NGC for grading but that still doesn't guarantee you a 70 (and MCM still has PF69s for sale for $119).  Found this today on eBay for a fairly reasonable price given the availability and what these slabbed/graded coins were originally selling for on MCM when I was too indecisive and didn't pull the trigger.  I did verify the coin on NGC and PM'ed the seller to ask about any toning or spotting not showing in the photographs.  He said the coin is perfect and comes with OGP and CoA.  Looking forward to the release of the proof Griffin!
