Default Who is farther behind? The Post Office or PSA????

Anyone else experiencing packages just sitting in post offices somewhere????

or........


Cards sitting forever at PSA? I heard that bulk PSA subs (if you sub now----I just like saying "sub") won't be back until next September or October......


Anybody think that Post Office is worse or PSA is worse??? P.S. Nat, if you are reading this, don't read this...........

I have two high dollar cards that are not just stuck, but stuck in locations that went the opposite direction of where they were supposed to go. Not ideal.

While expected, the delay in USPS shipping is a little frightening. I have a few cards currently in transit to the buyers that haven’t updated for a few days. I have made sure to contact those buyers to keep in mind the longer wait times. Luckily they have been extremely understanding. I have been shipping via small flat rate boxes on cards I don’t normally ship that way to protect against potential damage. Considering a lot of parcels are just sitting around for a few days, it has given me some piece of mind that small flat rate boxes should be more difficult to lose or be damaged in theory.

I am tempted to slow down on selling until after the holiday season.

USPS is not scanning alot of their packages. This provides an opportunity for employees to swipe a couple of packages.

I have 4 or 5 incoming packages that seem to have been stuck for 7-10 days. Really frustrating, as a couple are pretty high dollar items (for me anyway).

One package I sold just got scanned in at the post office this morning, when I put it in their drop box last Tuesday. So it took a full week just to be accepted into my small town post office.

I have multiple cards that were supposed to be delivered first week of December that haven’t arrived yet.

I have multiple 20-day PSA submissions that were supposed to be done in mid-October that are still in the Grading queue.

Can’t tell which is worse. Fitting way to end 2020!

Oh DAM, Jeremy. Sorry to hear about that. Mine is stuck in Hazelwood, MO....you bought a card from Normal? I wonder if it is from the card shop owner (Sean Phillips)???

Crazy. I have 2 incoming that were scanned on the 10th and no update since which isn’t that out of the ordinary. They were supposed to be delivered by yesterday but I’m aware of the current backlog so I’m not really trippin.

I had ordered a few other cards like December 2-3 that both showed up ahead of schedule though, which is weird because it seems most of you have been having these issues for a few weeks now. Maybe I just got lucky or maybe the Detroit area didn’t get as backed up.. or maybe we are late Christmas shoppers and this is just starting to get bad here.

I read the thread title too fast... lol.

I thought it said “Who farted behind? USPS or PSA.

Obviously, PSA is further behind.

This isnt on Nat whatsoever, he literally just bought it.

He seems like an incredibly sharp guy and though i don't know his actual role i think he will really transform psa into a much more efficient and streamlined process...it is going to take AWHILE to get things back normal/caught up though i think.
