Mine’s out of research into assembly but not sure how long assembly takes before Q1/Q2.

Anyone have experience with grading MTG/Pokemon and modern baseball? Are TCG cards such as mtg/pokemon grade on average quicker? I figure that they have certain graders specialized in different types of cards.

I've been in assembly for 5 business days now on a 3 card, 25 day sub, tomorrow will make it 6. I was hoping to see it move through assembly and Q1/Q2 rather quickly based on what others have had, but it doesn't seem to be the case for me. Which is unfortunate because I was hoping to have them back for a card show next weekend.

I have a bulk sub but it felt like others were moving through assembly quicker. Must be a bit off a logjam there or something, because I believe this is day 7 for me.

I’m just curious of the grades I got.

Are you moved to Q1 yet? I’m still in assembly...

I am also still in assembly. I thought calling them and having them "flag" it would maybe speed the process a tad, but I was wrong.

Order type: 85 Day Bulk (85 business days is roughly 12/17/19)
116 cards
shipped: 7/26/19
received per USPS: 7/29/19
received per PSA: 8/10/19
order popped:

Been in research & ID for almost two months. I know there's still a long time until it's "due date," so certainly not complaining, it's just funny that it sits at that stage forever

There's a BIG lag in crossovers. I believe everyone and their mother is sending in BGS cases these days. I have a 5 card order on day 49 now and they give me no updates any time I call.

Also had a 12 card regular order just take 37 business days and another one is sitting at 31 days.

Bulk submissions seem to be okay....for now.

Crossovers running 3-4 months?

Looks like bulk orders from end of June/early July are next in line to be completed. Any bulk orders received earlier than that by them you probably want to give PSA a ring and have them flag your order for some attention.

That’s my time frame. I have a couple oddball cards in there that might explain my extended stay in assembly, but hoping to pop soon.

So a bulk order (157 cards) just popped. Was logged on 8/27, so 29 business days.

Although this is great, my bulk orders that were logged on 8/7 (2 bulk orders were logged on the same day) and another on 8/8 are still in research.

Between the 3 orders, it's 739 cards that have been passed over to get to the 8/27 order.

My 124-card ordered received 8/6 is also still in Research & ID. It's got a mix from '50s, '80s, '90's, 2000s, 2010s...up through 2019. Also includes one hockey card and a couple basketball cards with the rest being baseball. I assume I'll be waiting forever.

Was the 157-card order all roughly the same (like all baseball from the past 3 years, or something like that)?

Would there be a reason I’m stuck in assembly? I notified them of one error during Grading but I see they fixed that and moved me to assembly. But I don’t need to do anything after that right? Been in assembly for 2+ weeks almost.

Im still in assembly too. I also notified them of an error the day it was logged (Aug. 8th) and that still hasn't been corrected.
