Guess its LIFO now.

Order Type: Regular
# of cards: 8
Order shipped: 2/28
Order delivered: 3/5
Order received per PSA: 3/12
Research & ID: 5/8
Grading: 5/26
Assembly: 6/23
QA1: 6/28
QA2: 6/29
Shipped: 6/30

10s - 1
9s - 3
8s -2
N6 - 2

I can understand why my Derek Jeter SP Foil got N6 - min size requirement, but I can't for the life of me figure out why a Tatis Chrome Refractor got one....other than pop control.

Hopefully this is encouraging… my 1 regular card sub went into R&ID 5/13 and a 10 card regular sub went into R&ID 5/18

Many 2019 Topps Chrome “Big 4” (201-204) were cut WAY short. Base and parallels.

Thanks for sharing. Based on this mine is about 10 days out which is faster than I expected.

Right there with you! 3 card regular order that hit R&ID on 5/14 - one of which is a Conor McGregor orange refractor that I'd be elated to get before his fight in ten days but that still seems like a pipedream. I really thought we were going to be getting our cards back come Fall. We'll see, I guess...

One of my first bulk submissions finally hit grading

Bulk - Modern (24 Cards)
Arrived: 10/21
Research and ID: 01/20
Grading: 6/30

They seem to be ahead on Bulk Modern compared to Ultra Modern Cards.

I wouldnt get excited and expect within 10 days to have yours back. His could have been an one off. but im not in the office, so maybe they will. I have two regs that got logged in and immediately went into grading on 5/7 and there is where they sit.

Grades popped
Most of my stuff was 80s and 90s of basketball and other various sports like golf. I received numerous upcharges as expected and did get some tens but overall 80% of my stuff seemed a grade lower than usual. Some of the BGS stuff I cracked came back lower than expected.

Submitted 4 cards

None came back higher than a PSA 8.........

Unreal - I should have at least gotten a 10 and maybe 9's on the rest.

I presume you weren't expecting a high gem rate? I like the older refractors of Jeter and Brady, I think those will always be safe plays.

This was sent the same time as an autograph authentication, so they opened the whole box and entered this right away...I inadvertently hacked my way ahead as I have order that were submitted earlier than are still in grading. Shoot I had an Economy order I shipped a month earlier that will end up taking the same amount of time as this.

Overall net actual versus expected was +6. I had 5 cards grade higher than expected, 9 cards grade as expected, and 1 card grade lower than expected. This is pretty consistent with my recent subs. I don't submit a whole lot that are gem worthy because I don't deal with much ultra modern anymore. I think I'm more critical of my cards that are in the 8-9 range. Only card that graded lower is the Daenerys Artifex, and that was a PC throw in to get me to 15 for the CC vouchers.

Big fan of early Brady and Jeter TC also. The Jeter is a pop 12 with no 10s. The Brady is a pop 29 with 8 10s. Bought both raw. Turned out nicely.
