My hope is that they are under promising and over delivering, as these orders were taking only about 30 days before they lifted the allocation event limits. |

Arrived - 3/05/21
Entered - 4/19/21 Did not write down the other steps, but have been at graded for a long, long time! Assembly - 4/23/22 QA1 - 5/10/22 QA2 - 5/13/22 Shipping - Grades popped! Wasn't expecting it and I almost sneaked a peek at the grades. I would rather just curse myself out and throw some slabs in disgust with the crap I submitted. Lots of swearing will happen!

Order Type: Value TCG
# of cards: 13 Order delivered: 3/19/21 (FedEx) Order received per PSA: 3/19/21 Research & ID: 5/3/21 Grading: 2/16/22 Assembly: NA QA1: NA QA2: NA Shipped: NA Order Type: Economy Allocation # of cards: 1 Order shipped: 4/12/22 (USPS) Order delivered: 4/13 Order received per PSA: 4/13 Research & ID: 4/14 Grading: 4/21 Assembly: 5/11 QA1: 5/12 QA2: 5/12 Shipped: 5/16 kind of disappointed with the grade. I got a PSA 7 base set charizard. i expected it to be an 7-8, but i figured it was going to get an 8 because it was really clean. only thing holding it back was a very very faint scratch in the holo (couldn't see it unless you were in a certain light) backdoor method showed it being an 8 as well, so they must've downgraded it in QA. regardless, i'm just happy it's encased now. might resub it later once prices drop. i still remember pulling it as a kid. i pulled it while i was in a car. i was so stoked, i held it up to the passenger window in hindsight i probably shouldn't have done that, cause i probably could've had a shot at a 10.

Order Type: Value Modern
# of cards: 25 Order shipped (USPS): 2/23/21 Order delivered @ PO Box: 2/25/21 Order picked up from PO Box: 3/1/21 Order arrived at PSA: 3/3/21 Research & ID: 4/16/21 Grading: 11/22/21 Assembly: 4/22/22 QA1: 5/6/22 QA2: 5/9/22 Shipped:5/16/22 I used the registry trick beforehand to see grades and they pretty much lined up with what I got. Pleasantly surprised with a few of them, and some I regret sending in. I also messed up with a few setting min grades on, so I have about 5 that didn't get graded. Lesson leared. BUT it was my first ever submission since coming back into the hobby and I've since learned to carefully look over cards before submitting! I would share results, but I'll wait until they come in. |

Damn. Still no movement and Order received by PSA on 4/13/22 and others with exact or near same dates getting orders back with more cards. Mine was just 8 cards. What is the deal?

Order Type: Economy Event
# of Cards: 9 Received by PSA: 04/26/2022 Entered by PSA: 04/29/2022 Currently in the grading phase Grades: NA YET Shipped: NA YET Looks like my order could be ready soon if this info is all on point! My first economy even order went super fast about 1.5 months from the time it left my door until the time they arrived back at my door. Still hoping they drop their price soon. I have so many cards I need to grade but it’s tough to justify the $50/card price point. Has anyone heard when they’re expected to lower the price? I’ve heard that’s their plan.

Poppage finally on an order received 4/1/22. Love the grades, hate that the players aren't doing so hot. Mind boggling that my very first economy order (dual service) hasn't left received status yet.

5 Card Economy Arrived 4/15: still in Grading
3 Card Economy Arrived 4/13: still in Grading 1 Card CRC label correction arrived 3/11, still in Research & ID. It's the biggest card I own (owned?) and they can't provide me any ETA. Fun stuff from Nat & the boys! This is why I prefer SGC. Haven't had them hold my cards hostage like this. Last edited by Giroux; 05-17-2022 at 11:25 AM. |

I've sent a few more valuable cards to SGC but they are either ones I plan to hold for a while (wanted to get them slabbed fast, can always resub to PSA) or thicker cards that PSA seems to be harsher on. |

It's pretty much inevitable. Just a matter of how many uncapped $50/card orders they will capture in the near term. Then it's a matter of seeing a big or gradual step down.

Agreed, right now they are still grading around 600K cards a month to clear the last of the backlog. That’s a lot of volume to be made up and they sure as hell aren’t getting that many at $50/Card.

So today they emailed me back saying express estimated turnaround times are 30 days (mine has been sitting in R&ID for 42) and then 30 minutes later I got an email that it had moved to grading. Seems like the squeaky wheels get the grease...I wish it didn't work like that though.

Edit: 20 minutes later upcharge email arrives...had hoped for at least 50% crossover, got 35%. still consider it a win...may crack out in the future depending on if the gulf between a quad+ 9.5 and a PSA 10 widens even further. Last edited by oddstuff; 05-17-2022 at 05:54 PM. |

Sad poppage. I swear, submitting at the regular service level is pointless. ROI on an order like this is looking like 5-8%. Not even worth the time of submitting.

4/13 order just popped. Got murdered in the grades. All were RCRs from a company I trust and have had great success with. 2 8s, 6 9s and 2 10s.
Didn’t get an upcharge for a superfractor auto psa 10 so that’s nice. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
