There's just no way to really know how many cards are in the "research" line...that is, if your order is in the research line. Depending on how many comps a card has, some may go through research quick while another card with few or no comps will take a lot longer for research. The research line is just one possibility...as mentioned in previous post, the bigger delay is most likely the need for every single card needing a high resolution scan after assembly/encapsulation. The month of April had 22 working days (Mon-Fri)...they graded 1.56 million cards. That's almost 71,000 cards a day that would need to be scanned before packing/shipping. We don't know how many scanners they have and how many people dedicated to the scanning process.
