That’s crazy. So it is either bulk and see it 7-9 months later or $75 for Express Service.

The backlog may have increased from the rumored 1.5 million cards a few months ago.

They literally have a popup that says try value bulk grading membership, express or super express. I knew this was going to happen. I submitted 7 cards express last week and am going to have to repeat this over and over and over

Does anybody have any idea how quickly the Quarterly Specials move as compared to Value or Bulk submissions? I had an order that fit the QGS criteria and sent it that way even though it was greater than 100 cards. Is there any substantial difference?

Question...previously the CC vouchers were being processed as economy. Are they now being processed as regular submissions?

They are filling them out as economy orders as originally submitted. I’m using CC vouchers as well from a submission from May. That order is actually being delivered to me today.

I sent in an Economy submission the day before they shut it down. It just showed in my list, but still not logged. The Service Level shows as "Regular (plus Voucher)" Thought that was interesting, as I'm not using vouchers. Anyone else get this?

I used Vouchers recently and mine shows the same. I think they just removed Economy and are likely treating all old economy, all vouchers, and all new regular orders together (unless there’s a separate order name for Regular (no voucher)).

PSA updated their system to include arrived orders in "My orders" section, even before they are entered. They are making improvements weekly and I also see them making some strides to catch up.
