I've dealt with quick and long turnaround times with them but something feels off about this last order. Most of the group subs are being logged and graded quicker at a better rate. As with every sub, some players are blowing up while others have fizzled. It's also an opportunity to edit the sub. From that I've seen, I have a much better chance of getting my grades graded with a preferred group sub than I do by myself. I'd gladly pay $20 for "guaranteed" standard 20 day service. It also seems PSA would prefer most people to sub this way based on the numbers of emails i've received advertising 3rd party services.

This is the worst I have experienced from PSA as they have not even logged my 2 orders. I called on Monday and they told me its 3-10 Weeks to log orders. I'm considering just having them return my cards and grade with one of the group subbers.
This makes reverse sense. o_O

It's definitely not linear, mine went in like 5 days after yours and hit assembly like a week earlier.

I wonder if the type of cards have to do with it?

Mine are all basketball, nothing out of the ordinary other than I'm likely getting upcharged on a bunch of them. 2013 Giannis Hoops rookies being the oldest, then 2017+ Prizm/Select rookie stuff of Tatum, Luka, etc.

I guess sending in multiple service levels in a single package to get faster log times is no longer a thing...

Order #1 - Economy
Received at PSA: 7/25/2020
Logged: 8/27/2020

Order #2 - CF Gems (CC Quarterly Special)
Received at PSA: 7/25/2020
Logged: Nope, not yet

Not a big deal, but I just picture a big room with a sign on the door that says, "Open Door, Begin Work, October 1st, 2020" and my little stack of cards is just sitting there in their card savers, rubber banded, on a table... collecting dust!

Anyone else notice the new submission forms at PSA. They completely changed the layout of the printed papers you send in with your order. Looks like they're finally changing some internal procedures and mechanics. There's new ID Barcodes for PSA to scan when they receive your order.

Nice to see progress being made in a storm of trouble.

sorry for the newbie question, but I just mailed in my first submission today. I can't find anything in my account that shows my order, where do I find the page that shows the different stages? I know it probably won't show up until they log the order but just curious where it would be found.

On mobile it will be under the account section. You won’t see anything until the package gets logged though.

YESH! Very happy with the grades. ^_^

Got my package in the mail 12pm noon!
Less than 24 hours shipping from Cali to Toronto! I'm not even sure how Fedex managed that. Very impressed. ^_^
Normally there are some delays at customs etc.
I'll be sending in more Economy orders from now on. xD
