Ones I sent in back at the end of November took 8 business days. I have one that was received Friday so today is actually business day 2. It is still just marked as received.

Yah, I have been going through Boca Card Subs and you can see the state each of the subs is in and it looks like it's taking a couple extra days. Still not like the end of 2021 where they were around a month to six weeks door to door.

They're blowing it away with their special and regular service. Subbed some Pokemon and regular stuff in the same shipment, arrived 1/27. Non Pokemon was in post grading around 9am this morning (my time, so 10 @ SGC) and the Pokemon was at post grading at 1pm my time.

Default They are amazing......

I dropped a small flat rate priority at post office Friday 1/27/23 bound for SGC.

Today 2/1/23 the cards hit post-grading processing!!!

Less than a week from my home to post grading! All for about $22 per card!

All of the other grading companies should really take note of SGC.

They are simply amazing!

sgc should change the insert COLOR FOR POKEMON. The black does not match the younger pokemon demographics and card. Maybe a light blue or white insert or something more flashy for the younger pokemon collectors. IDK.

I live in FL a couple hours from SGC, so my cards usually get to them in a day and back in a day, so right off the bat, I am saving 2-3 days in shipping, and as lof late they are knocking them out in 2-3 business days. So from the time I ship the cards to the time I sign for them it's about a week.

Wish I lived in Florida...... it is -41 (minus 41) windchill tonite! That translates to an SGC -41! These SGC cards warm me up though! lol

SGC graded my 4 vintage card order in 3 business days, and mailed them back to me on January 30th. My problem with the order this time was not SGC, but the postal service. Cards were supposed to be back by 2/2, instead Priority Mail took 6 business days - I got them on Monday. Oh well, all's well that ends well. I suppose you still cannot complain about the speed of the order overall from the SGC perspective.

Weather played a big factor in shipping last week across the South.

I agree and hate waiting for the post office for my SGC cards. I pay the $60 now always for Fedex next day return shipment. Have not had a problem since.

Yeah I found that out after the fact. It always sucks when your package goes dark and doesn't get a scan for 4+ days. I was beginning to think it was lost or stolen.

I hear you - but for many of my small subs that's almost more than the grading fees. The USPS for all of the times we get momentarily scared does get the job done 99% of the time.

What are people's experience in regards to changing SGC graded cards from the older Green flips to the black ones? According to the website, it is the same price under 50 and only $1 cheaper for bulk submissions. They will be regraded. That seems a little extreme. Do you normally get the same grade as before? Better to just crack ahead of time?
Sometimes I feel like the older green label is a bit harder to move, but it doesn't seem to be worth $17 (in most instances) to change over. Not really worried about it in the short term, but IF they ever get a registry, who knows how it will shake out.

Sent my first SGC order off today. I’m a PSA guy but they can’t get the slabs right on these odd sized vintage cards so SGC it is.
