Gem rates are dropping because the new graders are afraid to give out 10’s. Sad, but true.

Default Checking in on Bulk Order Statuses

With PSA already turning around Value Modern & Value Ultra-Modern orders that replaced the old "Bulk" product, I'm curious how many of us still have those Bulk orders outstanding?

I have one, received on 5/1, still in Research & ID.

That’s insane. I have a 100 card bulk logged 6/8 that’s been in Grading for a week. I really don’t understand their “process.”

Mine was logged in 3/16 and in R&ID until 3 weeks ago. Remember they were down a month for Covid and then skeleton crew for a while. I would add 20 business days to the ~100 days for bulk. Hopefully they move for you this month

Crazy how behind they are and still probably fastest grading company. What a blown opportunity.

Ugh, my economy order was delivered 8/14 and I forgot to write outside the box. Looks like I'll have another 5-6 weeks of waiting

Just watched your new video. People only have to watch the last 5 minutes to realize the pop control is going on. Bowman's Best is literally the easiest grade on the planet. (Example - Juan Soto has 590 10's out of 606 cards submitted-97.4% gem rate). Your grades on that set were crazy.

That being said, the chipping on those acetate cards should always drop the grade so if you didn't get hit before on those, I'd say you've been lucky.

Brutal sub to see though. On the bright side, everything has gone up so much that you'll still do great even with those grades.

I've got one about the same. Had it packed with an economy that got logged fairly quick but nothing on the bulk.

I do not trust them enough to send them cards in top loaders.

This might be a dumb question but as someone who is new to grading, if I am submitting a small order of say 10 cards, can those be submitted in a bubble mailer or do they have to go in a box? Seems like every video I see suggests boxes

It took a month to log in. And, it took another month to go to grading. Hopefully this means I'll be getting them back within a month as well. =)

If you care about them? Box.
