I've sent a lot of submissions to PCGS since 2006, but this is the fastest ever order received by our host.

And I'm not talking 'Package Received.'

I'm saying in less than 48 hours, my submission shipped from the east coast to the west coast and is now in PCGS 'Order Details.'

Anyone else have this experience?

Shout out to USPS and PCGS.

Happy Weekend All!

    Yep. And last time I commented here on appreciating the speed of PCGS checking in packages I got blasted. 🤔🚀

    But yes they seem to be on top of things in my last few submissions, at least in terms of checking in orders.

    Wow, that's certainly extraordinary. Great performance by all concerned.

    USPS seems to be on point. Took only two days for me to receive coins coast to coast.

    Couldn't agree more. My last two coast to coast shipments to CAC were delivered (and received in their system) in one and two business days respectively. My inbound packages are arriving on or ahead of schedule. Nice to be able to compliment USPS for a change.

    Mine always get entered fast. They get graded fast. They get to Encapsulation fast. They get to quality assurance fast.

    Let me guess... Express service? 😅 The encapsulation and QA are the most obnoxious to me... The waiting waiting waiting!

    Last year when I started this adventure, I was torn between the two main TPG's. I quickly picked our host as my main go-to for the very reason of how fast my coins got into their system. My packages to the other guys remained unopened and/or unacknowledge for much longer and it bugged me much more than the wait times. It was an easy tiebreaker.

    Happy to hear good news about the speed of the grading process. Might be only the front end, but could bode well for the rest of the sequence. Cheers, RickO

    Nope...mine were shipped and received the same as OP back on 6/13. They went to grading status quickly but there they sit...2 months later.....

    Please keep us updated on when yours hit Encapsulation stage....my guess is we won't here back from you for a couple of months🤣😂

    That's ok, they will make up for "found time" towards the end. Keep us posted on the end results.

    That means you get to start your 90 day wait earlier. 🤣

    You didn't get "blasted". I pointed out that ultimately, what counts, is how long it takes for your order to be shipped back to you, starting from the day it arrives, there, not how fast or slowly it gets logged into the system. The below copied post from this thread is an example of what I was talking about.
