Well, I dropped mine off in person 11/20. On the return invoice it was dated 11/23 at the top of the order sheet. It wasn't entered into the computer until 12/2, then grades available 12/6. delivered 12/15. So 5 days is nearly a month.
Mine were sent on Nov. 12 and logged in on the 23rd.......Now I know there is no grading timeframe and it varies on demand but when night after night you watch people posting their results and their submission's were logged WAY after your own it makes you want to freak.......***#&#&$(*$()#@&@&$(#@(@)$(&($*)(#)*
I already vented about the $5 special folks getting their "no turnaround guarantee" grades in a few days when it took almost 2 weeks for my $12 five-day specials to even get logged in. Once they were logged, the five-day pledge was honored. Funny how that worked out, eh?
I think the trick was to get your stuff in as early as possible after the special started. It didn't matter what level you paid for, once you got behind the traffic jam you were screwed.

That's theory doesn't hold water.....most of the orders I've read were submissions that were logged in late Nov. and early Dec. and they've gotten their grades. That's what p***** me off. Seems like the cut off was 11/3 to 11/15 got theirs....then the 11/30 to 12/3 got theirs. Anything from 11/16 to 11/29 are under a pile of rocks. #$%$^@$%^^@$^&@ARRRRRGGGHHH!!!!
Did you send in cards that were not previously graded? Even if PSA has graded 10000000000 1985 Topps cards if you send in a player/card that wasnt graded befor it will delay things my orders always take the max amount of time.
Mine is still showing logged in 11/23 and still no results. I called PSA to see what the delay was after seeing people recieve their card in just a couple days with a Dec submission. They guy obviously couldn't tell me what the delay was, but did say if the cards were common they would be graded faster since they have to check authenticity on all cards. I sent in some non sport with a couple sport cards so this is probably why it is a little slower. I also noticed some guys that took longer had OPC cards in the mix and this could possibly delay the grading. Overall this is frustrating to see others get their cards back so quickly while some of us poor ba$tard$ have to wait. So overall it probably comes down to the type of cards you sent in.
Same here, no grades posted today. What's worse is I have a total of 6 different submissions now at PSA. I think I'm not even going to check online anymore, when they show up at my door it'll be Christmas over and over.
<< <i>Another day and still no grades. Now on to week 5...............sad............ >>
gimme a break.. they let us know from the start that they're not making any promises on turnaround time.. (if you're talking about the $5 special).. next time, pay for a service level that guarantees a turnaround time, if thats what you want..

I thought this was a vent here if you haven't received your Nov. special thread? Just a vent...no breakage needed.
Since the special was extended a month and since you are charged as soon they arrive at PSA, I decided to wait till the end of December to submit. That way I have extra time to gather coin for the submission fees since the transaction will be on the Feb. CC statement.
I couldn't believe that in less than one week from when I mailed my cards, a "your PSA grades are ready" email was in my mailbox! I didnt even get to check the USPS webpage to see if the package was received yet! For the first time I have to say I was more than impressed with the service. I was expecting to get my cards back after the new year and would have been satisfied considering the volume it probably generated.......
Here was my crappy experience.....sent in the first order on the 3rd of Nov. I had the cards back in my hand on the 10th! WOW! So I calculated...got a little lazy and didn't get an order out till the 20th. No sweat right? WRONG! Didn't log it to their website till the 3rd of November....still no grades. Sent in another one about 5 days after that (found some goooood cards) and it got logged on the 6th....still nothing. UGH! They baited me in!
Apparently my 12/4 submission has yet to even slide within sniffin' distance of the grading room. Does PSA charge the ol' credit card before items are even graded?

I got mine super fast and I even requested that Joe make sure my submission was handled by a grader who laid the night before.
Heck, I thought that would take three months.

So overall it probably comes down to the type of cards you sent in.

you are correct.. but mine was received today, logged today, and i just got my grades 5 minutes ago..
just kidding.. actually, mine was received 12/6, logged 12/14.. still no grades..
