mine isn't older, it's 8/28 delivered, but it seems like the orders that went in before the barcode scan in process are being processed by their entered date instead of their delivered date. which means that during the time when the switchover happened, packages with the barcode just totally jumped ours and the rest of the month of August that had yet to be entered. Super fun.

The CTD is based on when it gets to R&ID. They seem to be processing orders right now with your Entered date including two of mine that have started to move. These both went in before the new barcode system.

ultra modern (2018-2020 baseball)
entered: 12/1/20
grading: 2/1/21
assembly: 4/10/21

200 cards with multiple duplicates in grading for two months. Really hoping for some upcharges from this bulk.

But it doesn't make any sense given the grading fee difference versus Economy. Looks like they are just starting to complete Economy orders from mid to late September 2020.

I keep hearing that the new graders are being trained on these orders. Not sure if that’s true but makes sense why they seem to be processed more quickly.

I've really just stopped trying to make sense of how things will be processed. A big part of it I think is that everybody's orders have different makeup...some have mixed moderns (paper and chrome), some have all moderns with paper only, some with chrome only. With moderns (1972-2017), that's such a wide range in years. With the non-bulk services, one single order could contain cards from the 1950s-1960s along with stuff in 2020s all in one order. I think the more variety there is in an order, the slower it takes to grade as the cards may need to pass through 2-3 different graders as opposed to straight up ultra moderns where one grader grades the entire order. So even when people share their movements here, unless we start sharing the makeup of the cards in the order, it's comparing apples to oranges. I think the only service tier where movements shared here may be a good indicator are bulk ultra moderns as those probably only require the eyes of one grader.

When you stop receiving cards, it makes the graders at ease and work faster. When you keep receiving cards and it seems like never-ending, it will feel like a grind.

Not waiting for June 1st

My 2 Day Priority from Tuesday (grades popped), shipped Wednesday. Delivered Friday and signature required.

Hmm email or call them maybe? Could be an issue with the credit card - I’ve seen others get held up for that before. I know some folks get randomly stuck in QA2 forever, but my 47 card economy order was only in QA2 for a day last week

My last express order two weeks ago took 5 days in QA2 til it popped and shipped and this would be the same debit card so I don’t think it would be that. One day was Easter as well, I have heard people being in QA2 for up to two weeks so I’m expecting anytime now.......I hope.
