Quality Check -- The Big Tease

The increased transparency into the grading process is nice, but watching an order sit in "quality check" for days sure is nerve-wracking. (Yeah, I should relax and get out more.)

When it goes from quality check back to grading, that's when I get nervous.
They should throw in some curveballs to keep it interesting for those watching the coins progress...
"Emergency spot removal"
"third side examination room"
"coin-flip specific gravity test"
"heating under a halogen light"
"learn by doing with PCGS interns"
"Some of these mintmarks are really hard to see"
"Brought as offering to the lair of the Finalizer"
Will the collector market ever be satisfied??
I think not... 
Patience is not a common commodity in this field. Cheers, RickO
How about "Rolled under the refrigerator in the break room."
You don't think @HeatherBoyd is looking at these for their April Fool's potential 6 months from now?

Haha hopefully they are taken in the spirit intended...
What I don't like is the coins are shipped and images are not available yet. Actually, coins have arrived and images are not done. I know they will show up, but it is sort of a pain (considering images were the reason for the submission)
How about: "Pending Further Examination"
"Searching Inventory"
"Waiting for Validation"
"Looking for Paperwork"
"TruView Meltdown"
