UPDATED: Bet you get faster PCGS turnarounds for the rest of March!

claychaserclaychaser Posts: 4,406 ✭✭✭✭
With C.U.'s quarter ending March 31, they will have to report on "units" processed - for us, coins graded. This is called a metric, and the reports last quarter were disappointing to Wall Street. This is CU's 3rd quarter of it's fiscal year.

I'll speculate that they don't want another disappointment, and that they will process as fast as they can for the rest of March.

Anybody notice faster, or slower, turnarounds when they expected dates for "grades available" falls shortly after March 31?

    I hope you're right...

    ... but I'm not going to hold my breath.
    When in doubt, don't.

    Ive done 3 submissions in my life right to PCGS. I have one in right (economy) that has lasted almost 3 times longer than the others. PCGS economy times just rose from 40 to 45 days as well. Sure doesnt sound like its speeding up to me...

    And the fastest turnaround is a bodybag, right?

    Coincidently, it's the most profitable too. image

    The turnaround time is meaningless, they book the revenue at the time they receive the submission.

    It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    They are going to be cranking on the bulk submissions, they don't get paid for until after the coins are graded! The ones that are paid for wait!! They already have our cashola!!image
