What he means is if you had multiple quantities of the same card, initially the list shows one row with the qty amount. Once it's close to popping the list will expand and you'll see 3 rows of the same card, instead of one row with qty = 3.

What I have noticed with my last 3 order is that from QA2 to complete has averaged 8 days. I know some get stuck in there for a much longer period, but mine has been exactly 8 days. I have another one hitting day 8 today, 2023.226. We will see if it holds true.

I believe it is how many submissions PC has at each level

How do I use that information?

If anyone has any success stories with grade to consignment I’d love to read about them.

There is nothing to use from it. It was important during back log and we sorta just kept doing it.

I’d like to agree, my first sub I sent a small batch of 11 cards just to try it, did grade to consign on 8 of the cards I sent in, sold them at auction with PC and kept the rest and still came out with a positive balance, can’t beat that at all. Now I’ve sent in 5 more larger subs that are at PSA all in different stages. Big shout out to Kevin for answering all my questions to help me along this process.

2023.275 modern bulk jumper from assembly to QA 2. Completely skipped over QA 1. I ain’t complaining, honestly thought that batch was not gonna be finished until late august, seems like these will be done at least in the next week or so (depending on national slowdown)

bulk 2023.213 went to grading on 5/17, with no updates since.

Is this normal now?

Considering sending about 35 to PCsportscards and using the “bulk modern” level. Could I get some feedback as to approximately how long the current turnaround time is?

I submitted a handful of bulk modern cards in a recent PCS submission. Received by PCS on 6/9/23 and was completed 7/14/23. FWIW.

So I send in a batch to PSA probably every 4 to 6 weeks. I am a collectors club member so I get the lower rates...Other than I know Jewcer is a stand up guy (As i have dealt with him in the past) What is the advantage(s) to sending to PC and having them send in to PSA instead of myself...I dont care about the consignmet end.

Thanks for the response fellas! Cards are boxed up and going out tomorrow. Fourteen Ohtani HM1’s, fifteen HMT32’s, one 2018 heritage Ohtani purple that will probably grade 9 but what the hell. Along with three Juster Herbert (2020 Panini Prizm red ice and red, white and blue, 2020 Donruss Optic holo).

From my one experience in the grade to consignment is that I used my 11 card submission and sold 8 of the cards at auction to pay for or subsidize the cards I actually wanted to keep for my collection, and have money left over. I don’t ever plan on paying for grading directly ever again as long as I use that strategy.
