Each of these is a 100+ card value sub. All seem to be on the same trajectory. Not expecting them back until spring of next year at the earliest.

Hoping for some movement before end of the year, but from the looks of all the other posted Economy subs & turnaround times I don't have my hopes up.
Yours looks almost identical to mine. Economy: Dlvd 9/1, Recd 9/27, Research 10/2, Grading 10/21. Not in QA yet.Maybe that last week of Dec they'll hit QA and graded by 1/18? The wait is killing me and it's only 21 cards.

What is done with the cards if a customer dies prior to grading completion/shipping.
That is an interesting question. It has to have happened. I bet they ship them and really wouldn't even know the member has passed away.
Not nearly as drastic, but a question I have that is in a similar vein...if your CC membership ends prior to your submission being entered, are they grandfathered in under your previous membership. I am sure with the current turnaround times, this has to have happened.
One new experience I had. The CC I use for the submission was flagged for a fraud alert by my bank, and subsequently cancelled, and a new card was issued. Now, at some point, I guess I'll have to call PSA and change the CC on all the orders.

By the time your cards are graded your credit card number will have changed two more times due to fraudulent transactions!

My CC is also in assembly and has been for a week. I am not getting my hopes up for much movement on the six subs I have in for a while. The one sub that actually did pop for me was in assembly for quite a while. I think like 3 weeks or more.

Me too. My 9 card economy has been in QA2 for 8 days or so. It seems like instead of finishing out the order, they are taking a bunch of orders and processing the same stage.

Very similar experience as above. This was my first sub to PSA and I went with a Collector's Club Special for Gridiron Greats.
It arrived 11/3 and has not been entered yet. Similar experience with Beckett, my last order was a 30 days service received 5/4/20 and I received the cards back last week. So I figure 5-6 months is the norm these days.

you went after some hard ones! the erving, the bly, hornung, reggie, robinson, heck all of those ones are tough. how did you think you did?
Up and down. They are all nicely centered cards and my collection houses lots of mid grade centered HOF rookies. Thought the DR J was a 4, and the Bly was a 6. Also thought the Reggie was between 5 or 6 and the Robinson a 5. So I will take the upgrades of the bly and Reggie and be happy. The Robinson is definitely the worst on centering so it will be sold and not kept.

I don't have my finger on the pulse, what does this comment mean?? thank you, feel free to PM me. as not to derail this thread
earlier this year psa 9s eclipsed $25k when you used to be able to pick them up for $5k. they have come back to earth since then, but i would assume once cards hit certain price thresholds they garner more scrutiny grading wise. zero proof to back up my thought process.
@blurryface I agree with that 100% but I would say the price point is significantly lower than even the $5k you mentioned that PSA starts becoming overly aware of the value their grade gives.
Anyone get back any $50 Regular orders recently? I’m trying to get a rough idea on how many business days it’s taking, their site says 25 days and I’m currently at 31 business days not counting Thanksgiving,Xmas eve and Xmas day.
@OAKESY25 said: @blurryface I agree with that 100% but I would say the price point is significantly lower than even the $5k you mentioned that PSA starts becoming overly aware of the value their grade gives.
$5k wasn't the price point that i was suggesting psa starts to takes notice, rather i was just stating the price point at what a 9 was sitting at not too long ago. by using the same 5x multiplier ($5k to now $25k) a dr.j rookie that was around $200 in value now all of a sudden is closer to $1k card thus resulting in more scrutiny and perhaps a now tougher grading standard keeping in mind 76s initial assessment was a 4 and came back a 3, i think.

I would have thought the horning should be a 4 as well.
dr J looks like a pretty good bend and twist on in the top left section so maybe 3 is right.
you were being pretty critical on the blyleven, unless the corners look really soft on the back no way would I have been expecting a 6, the chipping looks very minimal to me
being that it's been stuck in assembly for a month tomorrow, just trying some reverse psychology and/or low key flogging in some futile attempt to jar it loose.
My pack order just hit grading for those interested in wait time on packs. This was a 40pack order 16 per pack. Don't remember if it was considered a "special" or not.

@blurryface ____i'm sure they are grading a lil tougher on dr j these days after what happened a few months back__
I don't have my finger on the pulse, what does this comment mean?? thank you, feel free to PM me. as not to derail this thread
earlier this year psa 9s eclipsed $25k when you used to be able to pick them up for $5k. they have come back to earth since then, but i would assume once cards hit certain price thresholds they garner more scrutiny grading wise. zero proof to back up my thought process.
@blurryface I agree with that 100% but I would say the price point is significantly lower than even the $5k you mentioned that PSA starts becoming overly aware of the value their grade gives.
Anyone get back any $50 Regular orders recently? I’m trying to get a rough idea on how many business days it’s taking, their site says 25 days and I’m currently at 31 business days not counting Thanksgiving,Xmas eve and Xmas day.

$5k wasn't the price point that i was suggesting psa starts to takes notice, rather i was just stating the price point at what a 9 was sitting at not too long ago. by using the same 5x multiplier ($5k to now $25k) a dr.j rookie that was around $200 in value now all of a sudden is closer to $1k card thus resulting in more scrutiny and perhaps a now tougher grading standard keeping in mind 76s initial assessment was a 4 and came back a 3, i think.
Same issue here. I had a renewal and a regular sub hit Assembly on the same day. The Regular sub was delivered to me on 12/24 the Renewal is still in assembly
Took me right at 30 on mine
Thanks, hopefully mine gets pushed through soon.

Cards arrived today. Here are a couple I was hoping would go one grade higher. And the Blyleven that I was expecting a 6 on since they are notoriously tough on 71’s.

i like your style. decently centered dr j w no elbow fisheye.
a tough combo in any grade!
nice cards,
I would have thought the horning should be a 4 as well.
dr J looks like a pretty good bend and twist on in the top left section so maybe 3 is right.
you were being pretty critical on the blyleven, unless the corners look really soft on the back no way would I have been expecting a 6, the chipping looks very minimal to me
Arrived 10/5 bulk, no movement since 10/5

correction: hitting qa2 just a few days before the holiday and new years day run, coupled with them being on fridays is definitely the worst.
I have had an order in QA2 for about a month now
102 card sub, bulk
pre-barcode system.
arrived: 7/06
logged: 8/15
assembly: 12/5
being that it's been stuck in assembly for a month tomorrow, just trying some reverse psychology and/or low key flogging in some futile attempt to jar it loose.
what service level though? bulk?
Happy New year, here is the movement I have seen on my oldest orders to give some data to the group
My pack order just hit grading for those interested in wait time on packs. This was a 40pack order 16 per pack. Don't remember if it was considered a "special" or not.
