GameStop x PSA - Page 17

KGD54 · 10-02-2025, 04:13 PM

I am canceling my PSA membership and only grading bulk through Gamestop. Same price for bulk plus the Game Stop Membership gives you $5 shipping and a $5 coupon per month meaning free shipping once per month. Stack on top of it that Game Stop gives rewards worth discounts which equal to about 50 cents per card and you are at $21.50 per card with no shipping, I also work on a military base, so there is no sales tax! I walk out of the store and i am at a flat $21.50 per card and getting better return times than doing it myself.
I will have to get a membership eventually, as i grade bulk dual service, but i can wait a year before i really need to do that.

Second sub at PSA

EscapePlan · 10-03-2025, 01:27 PM

Just picked up a small 2 card order that I dropped off on 8/15. One 10 and one 9. Sucks about the 9 because it looked better than the 10. Going to have to try again ughhh and I thought I was out of the grading game.

Is it true that Game Stop bulk orders have been finishing sooner than doing PSA direct or other group subs?

My last two orders have been about a 6 week turn around.

yep. my 7/7 order was ready for pickup 9/8. That's 40 biz days flat and 60 days if you include the weekends... which is still faster than the 65+ biz day value bulk timelines from PSA lol.

TXRunner · 10-07-2025, 03:28 PM

GameStop must have either overnighted the package or put the wrong date in the day they sent them out. Just got notice that my cards arrived at PSA today.

Gemmed the ones that I cared about - 5/14 10s, the rest were 9s, 8s and a 7 (thicker card so expected it)

Icollectstuff · 10-16-2025, 01:16 PM

Well my August 27th submission grades became available today.... grade wise it was my worst results yet of any of my gamestop submissions...

I did grade some cards that I was certain had zero chance at a 10 but still I was expecting to do a little better... luckily everything was pack pulled at original retail price... so value wise I still ended up way above what I have in to them...

I ended up with

10- 1x
9- 2x
8- 1x
7- 1x

The 7 and the 8 are the first times I've gotten those grades on a pokemon card submission

Does anyone have experience with submitting at Gamestop but have the cards sent to PSA Vault after grading is completed? Do I need a PSA membership to use PSA Vault and have cards move to there? Thank you.

I think the only option is to have the cards sent back to Gamestop after grading is complete.
