Grading turn around times

Where on the PCGS site can I find current estimated grading turn around times?
Sure it’s easy, but I’m missing it.

    They don’t matter. I had 2 economy submissions arrive on Feb 7th. One is in encapsulation and one is still sitting in processing.

    It’s almost like someone grabs a handful and goes.

    There are currently - and for a while now - a lot of threads on turn around time. Do a search, you will find everything from months to - in some cases - just a couple of weeks. Wide variances. Cheers, RickO

    Current ones are harder to find than you might think .
    That is why I took the time to ask…

    These two subs sat in grading for a month and more recently have been sitting in encap for three (calendar) weeks. My US sub just moved to QA last night, eventhough the world sub has been in encap for a week longer. I'm just hoping my TruViews don't come out as poor as they have for my last few subs....

    I've received three proof coins back over the last couple of weeks and the TVs have been horrible. I have seen other examples that are as bad or worse than mine. (If curious, cert#s 45793087, 38705893, & 37234163)

    In terms of time frames, here's my outstanding orders:

    I agree, those images are horrible, especially the 2 & 3 cent pieces.

    I think it is better to wait for few months or even a year before submitting again. I will wait anyway. I will submit again when the turn around time back to normal. Maybe 20 days for regular.

    18 business days in encapsulation, Houston we have a problem.

    I just got a 3 coin submission back. Took 4.5 months and the TVs are very disappointing.

    I now understand why some folks crash and burn after being members on this site for years. My order went into grading 10/27/2022 Finally Feb 7th my grades showed up and true views followed a few days later. This is the Day my credit card was charged. Now over 1 MONTH later and they have not shipped my coins back.

    Last week I sent an email asking them to please send my coins back. The response I got was shipping is a different department and they will ship when ready? They got one variety wrong and still charged me 8 bucks and I believe there just playing games. Maybe they ran out of shipping boxes? This has been the worst experience in my 14 years.
