    I was sent a $150 “finish your registry set” coupon. Never gotten that before.

    Wow, interesting. What could you use the $150 towards? Is it essentially like a grading voucher?

    Yeah. It’s a code. Good for $150 off 20 card sub at value bulk or higher.

  • Nice! I hope to see one of these some day. 🙂

    This thread seems to be fizzling out, but I'll give it a shot. Got some good news today:
    Order Arrived: June 27th
    Order Prep: July 12th
    Grades: August 29th

    This was a Value vintage order using a "please come back" discount code and amounted to 6 1963 Fleer baseball commons that I cracked out of SGC slabs. There were 4 SGC 9s and 2 8.5s. Two of the 9s got PSA 9, two got 8, and both 8.5s got PSA 9. Quite happy with that. I'm nominally working on the set in PSA 8 and above and I came out decently ahead considering recent prices on the 9s.

    Congrats!

    What was PSA offering for this "please come back" discount code?

    My discount code had the following rules:

    "Here’s how to get $50 off your submission of $99.96 or more.
    Submit four or more cards at Value service level or higher
    $99.96 minimum subtotal (pre-tax, shipping, & handling)
    Limit of one code per eligible customer, one-time use only
    Code is not transferable—only the recipient of this email is eligible"

    Did not have to have an active membership and the stated processing time was the same as for a non discount order.

    This thread has been quiet for months, presumably because things were moving more quickly. The last few subs I've had (Nov-Present) have been lagging quite a bit on even getting to R&ID. They were running 7-21 days and then R&ID was less than a week usually. Now it's over a month on check-in and R&ID is taking 2+ weeks. I have another stack of stuff to send in, hoping for some decent specials in April but it feels like it'll be July before I get them back now which is not ideal at all. Especially given that some of the new football releases won't even be out til sometime in April. It's hard planning 3+ months in advance.

    Had my last one currently (ever?) there move to Assembly Friday. The other that I sent in the same box was sent back to me Feb 21st, so explain how that works...

    After almost 8 weeks, my modern special moved to grading today.
    Is anyone grading 2024 Prizm NFL? I have a stack to send in and they look really good but I'm turned off by the gem rates. Seems like most of the guys are in the 20% range. I'm pretty confident in my pre-grading but is there something I'm missing or what are all these other people missing?
