They have consistently been doing about 125k collectibles a week. Guy is doing an amazing job tracking all this on youtube by looking at how pop reports are changing week over week.

I would bet that by middle of June the express and regular will both be over 100 days. The others will take longer but by November i would guess you'd see one year waits for all the other service levels to the right.

how far back does this data go? considering the numbers that have been thrown out there RE: backlog and subs pre price-hike, that's nowhere near enough. and if there's no improvement to production even with a complete shutdown of subs, what was the point?

They told me crossover varies by demand. Mine are entered 12/14 and they said at least a few more months. These were already psa graded, to add a numerical grade

He started tracking it right after the shutdown so its only the last month. Below is the link to the last video. He updates every Wednesday. Its a very thoughtful analysis. The conclusion isn't great depending on what you assume the backlog to be.

Big fan of that YouTuber. I appreciate him being a regular dude who uses his professional skills to analyze. His math has been pretty spot on.

Although your username claims you to be a TC genius, you clearly cannot identify sarcasm.

That other poster was me. I wasnt being literal. Which is the reason why i just replied to your comment. Seemed to me that your sarcasm was directed toward PSA not making any movement. If that was the case, then my comment still stands. If its not the case, then you're right i cant understand sarcasm on a forum that constantly is complaining its hard to discern

Had a bulk ultra modern order and bulk modern order that arrived mid March logged last week and moved to R&ID. An Express order shipped in the same box as the other two orders wasn’t logged and move to R&ID until today. Not sure there’s much significance to that but is entirely the opposite of the order I e had things move from the same package in the past. Seems like Express CTDs are going to lag quite a bit more than they are currently for the foreseeable future.

Does anyone know how they are handling up-charges for cards graded/valued higher than submitted? It's going to be pretty frustrating if people have values/economies that took a year to get graded but then they still have to pay the regular fees without receiving that level of service.

The Complete Through Dates are supposed to provide some transparency on what's going through when, but it is a gigantic failure. I suspect they are now grading for their largest commercial accounts first and leaving the individuals behind. The dates aren't moving because they are not doing first in / first out even within a service level.

Quarterly Specials have literally moved two days (!) since 9th April. If this continues I won't have my orders that were shipped in May 2020 and entered mid August back until December...

So frustrating tbh. And don't even get me started about upcharging cards that went up in value after they've sat on them for a year...

They seem to be very lenient on up charging, as they should be. I don't think they would upcharge unless it is something up two service levels or more. I wouldn't worry about it.

My standard order submitted in August through PCsportscards would say different

I had a 9/30 economy order pop last week and an 8/19 TCG monthly special just went into assembly today. Perhaps they are a little further along with most than the CTD would suggest. Those monthly specials should be easier to kick out since the cards are all generally the same type/era.
