has anyone had any success at having cards added with the new online forms. I asked for cards to be added with weights around the deadline for the last awards cut off. they still havent been added to the registry yet? anyone else have a similar experience??

It will probably take a while. There will be a Mad Rush to get them all incorporate before the next Registry deadline - but it will be a very low priority item until then.

This may be heresy but would anyone else be willing to pay for the registry's services on an annual basis to achieve more timely service? I love the Set Registry and it is the primary reason I buy PSA graded cards but I wonder about it's usefulness with the staggering delays in updating sets. Just a question to the interested masses.

Brent - more than anything else, I think these are a lumpy-type service/expense. Once a lot of these sets get updated - they should 99% be done for awhile. And as more sets on the Registry are completed, the ongoing service element won't be so necessary.

All that said - The Registry is a great service provided by PSA. Free for collectors and it has been great for collectors. But the service pays for itself many times over in the increased numbers that PSA set collectors pay for ugprades/additions to their sets. The Registry was a true win-win for both PSA and the collector....

My feeling is I pay for a membership to PSA and that should cover these services. If someone who isnt a member has a problem with the speed of posting registeries, tough luck. But in the end I feel I pay enough with yearly membership and then also paying for submissions, I dont want to pay for additional services to speed up the process.
