Thanks. They just emailed me yesterday that it was received. They seem to be running a month behind and (as of two days ago) they shut down their call center to catch up. Hopefully others who are waiting get notified soon.

Moving onto a month, should I have been charged yet? It seems that I should have.

Beckett received my order on yesterday and is now in verification. It was a priority order. The card raw sells for 1200. Manga Ace

It depends if it is BAS no issue they don’t charge until the product is reviewed by the authenticator, if it is BGS you probably should’ve been charged by now though it can sometimes take longer.

Got email from Beckett. People who submits the priority orders get 20% off by using Promo Code: RUSH20.

No details on when this offer ends or not.

With how they had to increase the turnaround times and stop group submissions they really shouldn’t be running any specials at the which involves grading.

Does Beckett still do walk in on site grading and how was your experience? The Plano Tx office on summit Dr . I used to go to the old farmers branch location but that was several years ago. Thanks!

BAS doesn’t charge you until the day the authenticator looks at your item. So when you get charged that is a good way to know your order is close to being complete with them.

I said the same thing. Kind of crazy trying to intake priority turnaround orders when you just doubled most people’s turnarounds.

Saw a video w/Neo interviewing Ryan Hoge of PSA. Says Beckett has about a 5 month backlog of cards. Said the optimal range at anytime for these companies should be two months of backlog. Also said these companies should only run specials if the backlog of cards is under two months.

Is this a new email from them I haven’t seen the bottom one before.

From what I’ve seen this year labels seems to be the area with most issues. 23 days in that area give or take

Received this update two days ago. Monday is exactly one month from when I was told they would be making me a check.
Now two months since I was told I would be receiving a check. Customer service phone number has been shut down. Emails do not get responded to.

Beckett is an absolute #@#@#@#@ing joke.

Final update. I had asked them(forgot to update this prior) to just pull my card and ship it back to back to me. Magically graded the next day. Card will be off to PSA as soon as it gets back.

3+ months in labels seems wild to me. Email to CS hasn’t been returned.
Received a check in the mail yesterday (2/17/2026) for $750. Thanks to those of you who followed this journey.

And keep your eyes out for this missing card, which is probably worth more than $750:

CERT NUMBER
# 18001810
Set Name 2024 Absolute Glass
Player Name Drake Maye
Date Graded Tuesday, May 13, 2025
Centering Grade 9.5
Corners Grade 10.0
Edges Grade 10.0
Surface Grade 10.0

Mailed 2/18/25
Rcvd 2/21/25
Marked as received 3/10/25
Grade received 5/13/25
Lost sometime after 5/13/25
Lots of radio silence and emails to CS, finally connect with someone through LinkedIn
Credit Card refunded 1/13/26
Check received 2/17/26 (check dated 1/13/26)

New CEO is quietly doing something over at Beckett

For the past 12 months I've been watching, their daily grading tallies are generally between 2-5k.

For the past month they've been doing closer to 5-10k.

I also see TCG swinging hard in Beckett's direction. I think that momentum will carry. Hopefully it slowly translates to some of the old sports heads coming back.
