I have two orders that arrived on 12/10/24 and they've been in grading for three weeks now. I have another order that arrived on 12/16/24 and grading finished on 1/13/25, and another order that arrived on 12/26/24 that just hit Grading yesterday and Assembly today. At what point should I consider reaching out to PSA about the two orders that have been in Grading for three weeks, or should I just leave them to it?

I had these collecting dust for awhile! I can’t believe how much the raw ones have sold for.

I'm literally 1 month behind you (16-card Value bulk order arrived 1/31 per PSA).
Hopefully my progress tracks similarly to yours (or quicker)!

Just saw that tcg has 654k graded over the last 30 days. Can't remember it ever being that high.

Maybe it hasn't been long enough since the tcg fee hike, but, if they want better TA times, they may need to just price tcg and sports cards the same until the tcg market starts to cool.

PSA is going to milk the TCG market as long as they can. Grading a Pokemon card is a lot easier than sports cards...so PSA wants as much of those cards in their holding area as possible. So don't see turnaround times getting better.

Does PSA only update the order status in the morning?

I got my R&ID notification at 9 pm EST so I’d guess EOD or live as they update

Damn, my Jan bulk entered order prep same day as yours. Hopefully that means my status moves to R&D any minute now.

Not sure what’s going on, but I have 3 orders that have been stuck in the Assembly step (with blue check mark) since late last week. Usually this phase lasts a day (max) for me.
