Arrived Nov 20 2020
Grades Popped April 12 2021

So... haha. Took a BGS 9 2003 LBJ Topps RC with subs: centering 9.5, corners 9, surface 9 and edges 9.5; new grade today is a BGS 9.5 (hooray) with subs: centering 9 (how can centering change?) corners 9.5, surface 9.5 and edges 9.5... SO 3 out of 4 subs changed. What a scam

You got your preferred grade though. All that matters

Congrats!

Subjectivity can be a double edged sword...you came out unscathed this time. Nice snag!

Agree, and while this is coming off as a complaint, I am not... obviously the 0.5 bump is a big deal and I'm happy... I cracked it and resent because it looked perfect, including the centering!!!! So I'm so confused how it went from a 9.5 to a 9 on centering especially when it looks nearly perfect. I will submit a photo when it gets back eventually. I got lucky and took a screenshot when they listed my 3 cards last week (with serial #s) then within a day or 2 they disappeared. BGS is funny. Point being.. I did not expect the centering to go BACKWARDS!! lol, didn't think it was subjective

The balls that BGS has to screw up my order and then tell me to send the error order in with my next submission is almost unfathomable. I absolutely love BGS’ slabs and subgrades but I am going to take a break from sending any orders in until they get their stuff together.
It’s too bad it’s come to this because every single one of my slabs is BGS and now I just feel like grading is too inconvenient and inconsistent. I’ll enjoy my raw cards from here on out.
I can’t imagine their business is sustainable when you have people like me, who ONLY use Beckett, losing faith. Too bad.

Update...BGS told me to send the cards back and the whole process should take 2-3 weeks, which I thought was absurd considering this was their mistake. They should’ve made it a priority. Fast forward to today...three weeks after the cards were redelivered to BGS and they still have not logged my cards. This has been the worst experience. I love BGS’ slabs but I don’t see myself sending them another submission until they get their act together. I couldn’t be more upset with them and they couldn’t seem to care less. I think the bottom line is that they really don’t care about customers. I was willing to wait for my original order, even though it was twice as long as quoted. I am not willing to wait while they fix their mistake. Their customer service gets 0 stars from me.

Yeah usually when it is on the edge it is subjective then they kind of default to eye appeal....at least that is my experience. I bet the front looked solid but the rear centering was on the edge...who knows cant wait to see a scan

Anyone have a good idea of what premium and express levels are running at currently including:
-Log time
-business days to get graded



Estimated TA times on BGSs page haven't been updated in months, so no idea if premium is still 10-15 days or if Express is actually at 15 days, and this thread doesn't seem to have recent data for these two service levels

Service Levels Current Turnaround Times
Premium Submissions Approximately 10-15+ Business Days
Express Submissions Approximately 15+ Business Days
Standard Submissions Approximately 6+ Months
Economy Submissions Approximately 9+ months

Sent 5 cards in Express recently, I had been working on a pile of around 100 cards to send, but that ship has sailed. I'm not sure what I'll do with all those cards that I didn't think were PSA 10s, but are potentially BGS 9.5s.

Received Date : 04/07/2021
Deadline Date : 04/14/2021

Will update when that order has some movement.

Its going to be 4 business days for me, so I guess I'm in the same boat. Maybe BGS shipped most of their shipping employees to grading department.

Mine shipped today

Default TAT for 20-day Standard Gaming?

Does anyone know what the Gaming 20-day Standard turnaround times look like?

10/28/2020 -- confirmed delivery to BGS.
01/21/2021 -- email from BGS, start of grading process.

Haven't heard anything since 01/21. Anyone else have a 20-day standard that was shipped in September or October?

Had my 30-day grades pop & shipping label created like 2 weeks ago and still hasn't been shipped out. Should I be worried?
