PSA Grading Question

[LoveLondon]

Seems like it’s taking forever. How much longer when it’s in this stage?
Thanks

Depends on the service you are paying for.

[Bjackson24]

In my experience not real long. About a week or so.

[MikawlBBC]

Yes, a week or so seems about right.

I am hearing reports of PSA being a lot more difficult with grades and potentially grading on a curve. Can anyone share their experiences? Sorry to hijack, couldn't find a thread.

I sent in 15 Trae Young Optic Holo rookies and not a single card came back a 10. Guess I got the wrong grader...……….

And all those previous 10s were totes 10s.

[kefskala]

funny you posted that i have three orders stuck at grading for two weeks now...my other orders got done fairly on time of the 45 days.... but at your stage another week

[Thirsty Whale]

My cards are in QA2 since 19 days.

Not familiar with the lingo, please explain.

I am hearing more and more of these reports... frustrating.

If you want your cards in less than 2-3 months, probably want to go with a Standard Submission...could be a while on some of the Bulk Submissions.

Regular submissions aren't getting done in 2-3 months. It takes 7-8 weeks just to log submissions at this time so you are probably looking at 4-6 months even with those. If you need your cards back pretty fast, pay the $75 for express. Really the only option at this point.

Maybe people are just not sending in gem mint cards.

But what if they got it from eBay and it said "PSA10?" in the title? :cool:

I have a few I’ve sent in recently and they seem to be getting logged within about a month at the most, pretty close to the 20 day mark on grading as well, could just be good luck I guess.

Even looking at the standard sub tracker on PC Sportscards for the sub times, I haven't really seen anything too outrageous on turnaround time recently.

I’ve been using @nashcards and most of my orders (20 day) have been on time or earlier. Just less of a headache this way for me and I still get my cards in a decent and timely manner.

I sent a 14 card Economy order that was received on 7/10, logged into the system on 8/5, and is currently in Research and ID. Guessing that the package should hopefully be shipped back to me by the end of this month, or early next month. Hopefully lol

If so though, that is about 2 months from the date I sent it.

Ive never used a sub service, are you saying that the 20 day is actually taking 20 days (or less) to get back to you? How much does that cost per card?

[Pickahit]

I am just preparing my first PSA submission to ship. Is it ok to ship with signature required?

Yes, I've shipped them all with signature required

[KingInTheNorth]

Thought this was fast...

Sent in 3 orders (same box - express, regular economy)

Thursday 8-13 (overnight)
Friday 8-14 PSA receives package
Monday 8-17 receive email order processing Research stage when I checked it.
Monday 8-17 express and regular service levels already in "grading"

Very surprised by the speed of this.

My last 15 submissions that was released last week: 9 -8s, 3 -9s, 3 -10s.

Tbh, I wasn't expecting that many 8s. There is a couple I though to have a shot at 10s, and ended up getting 8s.

[ttyler516]

I have an economy order that has been in the grading stage for 2 months. No rhyme or reason to their schedule!!

What a riveting basketball thread!

Send this sh*t to the Grading Forum.

Thanks for this info. I had 2 out of 49 come back as 8s and 16 of 49 come back as 10s. In the past, I was 80-90% 10s and it dipped to 65% to now less than 33%...

I will try and find the grading forum.
