Marty has a theory about the recent warp speed turnaround times for economy submissions.

RussRuss Posts: 48,514 ✭✭✭
The last few days we've seen turnarounds as low as eight days and many at under two weeks. Marty thinks it's because they're expediting them to get them booked before the end of the quarter. So, from now on, I'm only submitting at the beginning of each quarter-end month. image

    That's the theory I used to have (and follow!) up until late-2003, when everything went totally stupid and times ground to a halt. I hope Marty is right though! image
    When in doubt, don't.

    Marty is always right. He's a numismatic genius, a coin savant!

    Or could it simply be that PCGS was playing catch up on regular submissions to have them in before today so that people could update their registry sets ...
