  • That is great I hope the grades are what you wanted. I can only dream of a turnaround time like that.

  • Oh yeah, here's a link to your submission - nice job!

  • I had one logged in on 12/1 for the $5 special and still haven't received the grades yet. I don't understand their system for logging and grading!

    Congrats to you on the quick turnaround!

    I am of the opinion that if PSA were not to push turnarounds as a marketing ploy and submitters were to exercise more patience overall then maybe - just maybe - PSA would lower their overall prices on grading. It bothers me to see specials like $12 for 5 days turnaround when $12 is generally way too much to pay for any grading (unless it's an expensive card). If they would have specials like $3 for 45 days turnaround, that would get me more interested in joining again. There must something fundamentally wrong when many here joke about graded cards not even worth (or selling for) the price of grading. Maybe the problem is the price of grading?

    Sorry, to threadjack. Just a knee-jerk reaction.
  • i sent one out yesterday so wish me the same luck!
  • Nice on the quick turnaround.
    I finally received grades for both of my submissions sent for the Nov. special.
    Logged 11/16; grades posted 12/22 205 cards; 139 PSA 10s.
    Just got my grades for the second one (only 5 cards) gradeds posted today.
    Logged 12/3; grades posted 12/31. I wasn't lucky on quick turnaround which
    both shows about 1 month which still isn't bad.

    Almost batted 1.000.

  • I DON'T FREAKING UNDERSTAND PSA! I read about these quick turnarounds and it makes me more and more frustrated. Once again I had 2 seperate submissions, one hit on the 3rd of Dec. 8 cards. Had a second that hit on the 6th. - 12 cards. Then had a 3rd that was logged on the 16th. - 5 cards.
    So I called one day 3 times in a row and got three different "customer service" specialists. I know what you are going to say...but here are the answers I got on the explenation of why the delay on the first ones logged vs. getting the latter one back in my hands first. These are real quotes....
    "You just got lucky"
    "Congratulations- not sure why you are upset"
    "Different cards take longer/shorter" (the cards are ALL from the SAME SET!)
    "Looks like your cards got bumped up to the front of the line- seems as if you got lucky"

    So- one of my replies was "I thought the cards were lined up like guys going to the bathroom....the first one in is the first one out." "Well sometimes that happens and sometimes it doesn't" I asked if I should be concerned...."Oh no- remember there is no guarantee on the service." I know that....but it doesn't explain the jumping around of grading, etc.

    I just don't get- after I get these cards back....it will be a looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong time before I send back to PSA. I guess when you go cheap you get crappy service.
