One of life’s great mysteries is how PSA decides which order they will grade first. Why some bulk subs pop in 30 days and others take 125 days? The world may never know

I hope this week as well. When I checked this afternoon, my account page wouldn't load so hopes were high. @ahopkins Tomorrow is your last day for the guessing game!
I'm tagging February 27th, 2019. On that day, if we have not popped, I will be standing on the iron balustrade of the Walt Whitman Bridge, poised to jump.
This Friday, Feb. 1. Grader in a good mood for Super Bowl weekend!

Saw 7 new posts and thought it popped. My guess is this Thursday. I’m pretty sure I subbed a few rookie cards from the star of the World Cup that ended a few weeks before this sub started. I don’t remember the guys name and pretty sure I top ticked the market on his cards. Oops
It was Kylian Mbappe and here are the two you subbed:
2016 Panini Foot Corentin Jean-504/Kylian Mbappe-505
2016-2017 Bravo Sport Quartett 29 Kylian Mbappe
Ok, so from what I am now hearing, a realistic timeframe is about 105-110 business days. There was 4x the amount of bulk submissions sent in at the end of August. As long as I know, I'm good with it. Doesn't mean I won't still check 15 times a day on my own sub.

I've been thinking along these lines, too.
What if this takes a full calendar year? This thread may be the longest ever by that point. We may also be banned by that point, too, based on the sheer insanity and outrage of our posts.

Were you actually 'now hearing' it ? or are you reading things and garnering an opinion ? Damn unapologetic Humans.
Pushed customer service a little. Typically its pretty cut and dry but they explained that the bulk orders were 4x the amount normally submitted...which I totally get. Took a little enticing to get the 105-110 timeframe. They don't know for sure but that's what they are seeing. I appreciated the honesty
85 business days is still not an accurate number. My order was logged 9/10 and nothing despite several calls and unfulfilled promises from CS. Business day 100 and counting.

Based on the poppage times of other subs that logged around the time of ours, we should see poppage by the end of this week or very early next week. Fingers crossed.

I believe it was 9/15.

It looks like "we will expedite your order" is now the standard answer. Translation is "please get off the phone and don't bother us. You will get your cards when you get them."
Mine was logged 9/10 and popped this morning. Yours should be close. My grader made up for his slowness some great grades. Hope all of you get the same outcome.

That Bravo Sport Mbappe is latter 2017 issue. If it were labeled (correctly), it should not have 2016 on the flip.

Seriously... anyone ready to start a new 115 day sub? I may have around 20 or so to put in.

90 business days and counting. Maybe this week?

Yes, the log date was 9/15. That was a Saturday which lets you know that they are doing extra to try and speed things up. 😊

I doubt it will even get slabbed. Do you have anything that confirms the date? I’ll get it to the specs department
