Popped at 9:45pm CT last night. This is my first big bulk order back, so I'm waiting to see grades until they get it. I'll edit post with breakdown once it's in.

10s - 25
9s - 50
8s - 26
7s - 4
6s - 1
5s - 2

Overall- probably about right...most were dug out of bin boxes at my card shop.

Turns out my Bowman's Best Kobe atomic did get graded, just didn't do well (6).. womp. I guess the set registry app trick isn't 100%.

Just got an upcharge email today for one of my Express orders, which is always a good problem to have. I had an SGC 9.5 card that had a big greasy fingerprint on it. So I cracked it out, wiped off the fingerprint and sent it in to PSA where they gave it a 10.

I see Nat Turner tweeting at the National, wonder how much time that event will tack on? 1-2 weeks?

I have been looking at the daily numbers of cards graded on the pop report and it seems to be a little lower this week.

Explain how a handful of graders being gone for five days would add on 1-2 weeks of turnaround time.

Explain how this won’t impact output in CA?

The funny thing is most have been waiting forever for cards. Even if it does slow things down for a couple of weeks who would even notice? Lol…..

Quarterly Special received 9/29/2020, entered 1/5/2021 went into QA2 7/27/2021. That's well ahead of the CTD.

On the flip side, Value TCG arrived 9/15/2020, entered 10/15/2020 and is still in grading.

Also worthy of note, several of my value orders entered the first half of February went into the grading stage over the past two weeks.
