Nice, this is great news for me. My 14 card Economy order was received by PSA on 8/5 and has been in grading forever. Haven't seen any movement. Hopefully soon.

How did the pop look??

It was like most of them lately....they hammered my 86 Fleer's a bit I thought..

I did get 2 PSA 10's Kobe Topps RC's & the other 5 came back a 9. So like $7,500ish in Kobe's. That was the highlight...

I had 2 Chrome Wade RC's come back a 9 and really felt like at least one of those deserved a 10.

I sent in 3 lebron Rookie Exclusives and got 2 9's and a 8.

I don't know...PSA is tightening the screws. It's becoming tougher and tougher to get those 10's. Gone are the days (for me anwyays) of pulling strong gem numbers in bulk orders.

all in all it went about how I expected it to go.

PSA just told me that they don’t have a numerical turnaround time for bulk orders anymore. Incompetent.

I was just on their website trying to find estimated turnarounds and couldn't find it. I have a bulk that was delivered on 3/13 and logged 4/27. It is still in Research and ID.

They took all of the estimated time frames off the service offerings sometime in the last 24 hours or so.

Also it looks like they got rid of the need to subscribe to submit bulk? And the different pricing tiers for different types of bulk orders? And the minimum size for value orders - as in, they eliminated the concept of bulk? These seems like some dramatic changes if I'm seeing this accurately.

100 card bulk sub popped today. 90 of the 100 had minimum 10 grade.

71 x 10’s
7 x 9’s (Bellinger US50)
22 no grade.

Pretty stoked with the grades.

Wonder if I am in bad luck with my recent Express order not even having received the email after UPS confirmed delivery on 14th or if we can expect a month turnaround times for express from now on.

Including my other Express - I was referring to PSA not even sending the automated receiving message from the barcode scan.

That being said, check the other and my Express order times - not that far away from taking a month... mine was delivered on 5th and not shipped yet, so exactly 2 weeks by now.

Delivered on the 5th.. when was it registered in the system? It appears that PSA is handling Express orders within or pretty close to 5 business days like advertised.

Please read my previous messages to avoid confusion. There are 2 Express orders I am talking about.

It says that for the 2nd submission delivered on 14th, I did not even get the automatic confirmation email for the barcode being scanned.

I said not shipped yet, it is at QA2 since today for the order delivered to PSA on 5th. The scan happened on 5th and it was in the system 5th or 6th, I updated in this thread at page 218 I think.

I do not consider the 11th business day pretty close to 5 biz days as advertised - especially not at the price point of Express. Not sure where you seen someone getting close to 5 business days, but pretty sure it‘s not one of the most recent submissions/October submissions...I guess we just have different standards of seeing things, but a more than double TAT to what‘s advertiser certainly isn‘t impressive. The only thing running smooth is SuperExpress/higher right now.

Economy order just went to Assembly. Odd that it was only in grading for 5 days, where the CC order before has been for almost a month now. Possibly an error on PSA's part? Or did it really get through grading in just 5 days?
