I dropped off a sub in-person at a card show in mid-December and has a 14 May estimated completion date. It went into grading status on 13 January so based on your timeline, maybe I can have my sub returned sometime March versus May. |

I sent through someone so don’t have dates of all movements, but here are my current orders:
Type - ship date to PSA - current status Value bulk - shipped 10/27 - R&I Value plus - shipped 11/28 - QA2 Value plus - shipped 1/5 - Grading Value - shipped 1/5 - Assembly Value plus - shipped 1/23 - grading Gotta love that my value order jumped my value plus order, and they were both sent on the same day. For the life of me, I still cannot grasp why they don’t go with a first in first out system. I can’t imagine having a free for all improves their slow times more than a FIFO system

My 2 card Value Max order which was an in store submission event in Dec with an ECD of 2/4 popped today on 2/4. Good job PSA on this one.
To anyone curious event on 12/17 and went into R&ID in ~ 1 week and 1 week later grading. Was in grading stage for ~ 1 month. And now time to pay the man. |

You can send them in the same package but I’ve found that it’s helpful if each service level is in its own box inside. Once you have your 2 separate orders, (make sure they are in their own box and each marked—I used the bar code on the shipping label paper (last page of your receipts package) to slap on each box). Then put both orders’ boxes into 1 main box to ship. Then, use the feature on your PSA order dashboard to “combine orders” and they will give you a new bar code to slap on the outside of your 1 box to be shipped. They will typically send them back separately—but neither may be even remotely close to the turnaround time range that you expect. Just be sure to watch the status on your “orders” page and do 2 things when it gets close to shipping back: 1. When it hits the last quality control stage, make sure you have the funds to cover the costs in your bank account (they run your card right before they release the results), and 2. Be sure to be home or have a plan for the delivery because it’s always signature-required. |

2 submissions popped that were both sent in October. All that wait time to get 9’d and 8 to death. I am over PSA now. I had already begun to send elsewhere. 21 and 23 cards. I split them to avoid that. To go from 65% gem to 25% is ridiculous. I know PSA will continue to dominate the minds and the market of the grading community, but they have become ridiculous.
Gem mint 10 Mint 17 Near Mint 16 VG 1 Waiting for that was not worth it. |

had a value order pop last night:
16 cards 5 - 10s 5 - 9s 1 - 8 5 - 7s this order, like a lot of my orders recently, have been hammered harder on small imperfections then last year. a small whiting is now coming back as 8s and 7s instead of 8s and 9s. combine that with their updated centering standards, and it can be a whirlwind of an order. i dont mind it being harder to get 10s if it was consistent, but it's not so here we are. haha. |

There used to be discount codes for $50 and $75 off a first order.
Anyone know of any now?

Sent out 4 cards, I'm extremely happy with the turn around time to open the box and get into grading. This has to be my best ever, delivered to grading in 3 days for value plus? I remember people saying their boxes sat unopened for 2+ weeks using value plus. I guess it's gotten better!

Had grades pop from an Oct value bulk sub last Thursday, but still no word on the tracking.
Is it normally taking them a week+ to ship orders? |
