You could probably call them and upgrade to a 5-day, with payment, right over the phone.

Thanks gator, didn't know you could do that, I'll have to call them up.

Do you call whichever person who's in your region, or just regular customer service?

Probably something like $10/card to bump to 10 day service. The 10 day service is about 20 business days behind so you'll still have to wait another 4-6 weeks for the 10 day service bump. 😂

Yeah if it was 30 day you may not get an email for a couple weeks (unless things have picked up)...with 2 days you should get the email likely the day after they receive the package. (Maybe even same day for some lucky folks)

How easy is it to call and upgrade your order to a faster turn around time? I didn't know that was an option. Got the order received e-mail on 5/14 and no movement since. This was my first submission and wasn't aware of the delay on 10 days when I submitted or I would have ponied up the extra $5/card.

I'm torn because I have already waited this long but the times people are reporting in this thread for 10 day orders have a pretty wide range.

I would prob just email Beckett with that exact question. You're pretty close to getting done anyway---your email may just prompt them to bump it up a bit without upgrading...

I asked them to bump them to 5 days since I was being told that it wouldn't be done for at least another month. They changed it so I think the order will pop this week or next week.

I also have a 5 day order for another 17 cards that was received on May 27 and due date was 6/3/20. I think this order will pop this week.
My 5 day order popped that was due on 6/3/20. 3 business days late. Not too bad.

My 2 day just completed, they hit the deadline. Pretty excited to get this one back, hopefully Fedex doesn’t run it over or lose it.



Here it is raw.

If I didn't write the service time on the outside of the box, how screwed am I on grading time? I sent in 2 cards at 2 Day Service that was received on 6/5 but haven't received an e-mail confirmation yet

You don’t have to do that with BGS, they open the box the day after receipt. That’s my experience, I’ve had two 2 day orders in the last month complete on time without writing on the box.

Thanks for letting me know. I'll wait and see if I get an e-mail today from them.

If they got there Friday, I would've guessed you'd get an email confirmation yesterday (for 2day service)...they usually get picked up from the post office late in the afternoon. Prob get the email today.

Writing on the box shouldn't make a difference.

Whats the best way to ship to BGS? I'm submitting 10 cards with a 5-day service and would like ~$2k insurance on the package.

The power of the Blowout forum!! Just got my received e-mail. Does that mean my grades might actually be ready today too since they received it on Friday?

You’ll get them today. Late morning you can start searching the pop report for your cards. Think I’ve had mine show up as early as 11am CST. Pretty easy to figure out your sub.

Good luck!! For my last one, my card got graded and shipped the day AFTER I received the conf. email. But my last couple of emails have come at 5:42 in the evening.(exactly 5:42pm, lol)...if your conf. email says "deadline 6/9", they may grade AND ship today.
