For those you who use multiple companies to grade for whatever reason, Has anyone used CGC or BEckett Lately? Please share your experience and how long it took. Thanks in advance.

If PSA has no Oversized special next month, I'm going to try Beckett for the first time.
I'm hearing they take as long as PSA.

Yeah. I like Beckett and they grade pretty darn fair, but it takes forever. I was debating on CGC. they have a $9.80 special for 25 cards or more. Sounded decent and they grade a ton of cards, but mainly Pokemon and magic, etc.

CGC has a flat $9 special, partnerning with PWCC.
Any year. No minimum. Any value. No upcharges.
The cards are sent to PWCC vault after grading.
I think the catch is, there are fees involved with vaulting, and I'm not sure if you send the raw cards to PWCC first, or to CGC directly. I would be concerned with the ol' switch-a-roo when sending to a middleman, if that is the case, unless it's a modern serial numbered card.
I don't know their timelines.

what i saw was $11 bulk for 25 or more and if you join for $25, the price is cut to 9.80.
