Yes. Maybe they’re adding the regular service to their website.

Hi guys - has anyone had their order in assembly for 2 weeks?

This is a modern bulk order from PSA received date of December 2020.

Obviously, not everything can be seen from the scans, but I do feel PSA was significantly tougher than the norm on these.



Could just be the scans but the hat and socks like a little purple to me. Maybe that's something PSA is grading hyper-critically?

I agree on the 8s, could be front surface.

9s could be lower right on the back. Or surface (gloss). Impossible to spot for certain on 2D scans. I checked all 8 corners under magnification, on each card, before submitting.

Here's some of what I rejected on over 100 Bichette's. I still only hit 12/18 gem. The rest 9s, and one 8.

I'm probably wrong but if I'm Nat Turner I'm overpaying staff to work through the holidays. Seems like you could get a good bit of work done in the next two weeks.

My last Value Modern Order was in QA2 for ~14 days. It turned out they damaged a card during slabbing so PSA had to put a hold on the order. I don't recall the specifics but it was definitely in QA2 for about 9 or 10 days before they contacted me. Then it took another few days after that before it moved on to the final step.

Edit: List was gone during the entire time period above as well just like you.

Oof, don't tell me that. I have a good bit in there that belong to a friend who goes overseas for awhile after the New Year. Hoping it ships soon.

Was stuck in QA2 for about 5 days, just got an upcharge email with my grades.

198/343 PSA 10 - or 58%. The bulk of the 9s are for junk Hoops Premium pulsars lol.

The upcharge was for a friends Tatis Chrome Rookie Auto that GEM'd. He will happily pay the charge lo.

They really are. Wonder if that’s from submissions slowing down with Regular opening soon. Makes me hopeful that the turnaround for Regular is quicker than 2 months.

I have a feeling all the bulk (modern/ultra modern) are going to move to a slow crawl even more. I see eBay flooded with mountains of just-back-from-PSA cards from sellers that seem to fall under the "I opened a box and sent it all in" category.

Yes...bulk/value modern and ultra modern will continue to slow down. PSA has not even graded ALL the stuff they got in February/entered into their system in April yet (have 6 orders in this time range sitting in Grading since late October). When they actually get to "Grading" orders that hit them from March 2021, that's when things will grind to what will appear a complete halt to those still waiting. But keep reminding yourself if you start feeling frustrated, you got your orders in at below $20 a card. That is, if you didn't submit any 2020 Topps base
