Nahhh...delegate it to someone else. You'll immediately pass the course.

Piman58 · April 30, 2009 11:45PM

Thread move to the top so posts can be added before the next pop and inch the post count closer to my guess.

Is the waiting for these grades to pop more like:

a. When Quint, Brody, and Hooper were sitting around on the Orca in Jaws waiting/drinking/singing?

b. Hoards of people fixating on Devils Peak in Close Encounters?

c. James Caan laying in the bed recuperating in Misery?

d. Rudy wating to get into his first ND game?

e. Michael Madsen waiting for for Uma in his POS trailer in Kill Bill?

f. Other obscure movie reference?

I have given up hope.. and quit the hobby

Sportsamerica · May 1, 2009 3:19AM

Well since my cards popped, I just need the count on this to go about 100 more until I should be in the winnings...

I vote all graders work thru lunch break on monday!

Piman58 · May 1, 2009 10:08AM

Please join me in protesting the inequity of the poppage times of our submission that was carved into 4 orders. I can already sense some unease
amongst the submitters in the two remaining orders yet to pop. Will this group submission cause strife within the forum and then possibly spread like
a virus into the hobby itself?

How can we protest? I submit that we should refrain from adding to the post count of this thread until one of two remaining orders pops.
Let's make a statement of unity!

Please pay no attention to the fact that the current post count is within one of my guess.

Sportsamerica · May 1, 2009 10:11AM

VETO.. Keep the thread going.. This way more posts will make them move faster as they will run out of server space, thus the graders will look at them and say 10, 10, 9, 10, 10, 8, 10, 10, 9, 10, 10, 8.....

The best way to protest? Every group sub participant begin to root for the Cleveland Indians!

1025!

edit: I do not think non-sport cards pose a challenge for most of the PSA graders. And I do not think "poppage delays" are directly related to non-sport cigarette cards vs. traditional trading cards, like topps.

Why?

grading for the most part, is "surface, edges & centering". Whether its a smaller tobacco card or a regular card, like topps.

Personally, I'm actually impressed that PSA graded 1/2 the 1500 card 'group thread sub' already. I'm certain, parts 3 and 4 are "just around the corner"

My spin is "POPPAGE ON MONDAY, TUESDAY OR WEDNESDAY!"

f. Opening scene in Once upon a time in the West, Jack Elam and his crew waiting for Harmonica's train to arrive at the station. (That scene is longer than this wait. haha.)

skilow · May 1, 2009 5:17PM

...interesting!

mealeworm · May 1, 2009 10:40PM

I just hope it is worth the wait. The only thing I care about is good and fair grades. But early next week POP would be good too

EagleEyeKid · May 3, 2009 5:48AM

I'm actually checking the shared order page on a Sunday.
Yes it's stupid, but it's a disease.

Sportsamerica · May 3, 2009 7:45AM

Don't worry I always seem to check first thing Monday morning (I live on the East Coast), then I remember they are 3 hours behind...I guess I was hoping they were working weekends to catch up on demand...

CrimsonTider · May 4, 2009 2:07AM

I'm wearing my special "My grades are going to pop today" underwear!!! To keep the luck from being washed out of them, I will not allow my wife to wash them. After each luck wearing, I simply re-fold them and put them up til the next special occasion. And today is the next special occasion!!!!

bsidegrve · May 4, 2009 3:47AM

I'm about to leave for work, When I come back in 12 hrs I expect to see my grades

CrimsonTider · May 4, 2009 4:02AM

I wish that the grades would pop, I'm starting to chaff!

rbdjr1 · May 4, 2009 4:04AM

poppage pleeeeeeze!

EagleEyeKid · May 4, 2009 4:06AM

Yea, I'm running out of xanax.

CrimsonTider · May 4, 2009 6:27AM

I'm bored, so I'm bumping this thread

OAKESY25 · May 4, 2009 6:37AM

the last 2 aren't popping until day 45.. because I am in on em both.. sorry guys...
6 total subs in house... 7 if you count a mech error.. you think one could pop for me??

EagleEyeKid · May 4, 2009 8:00AM

because I am in on em both.. sorry guys...

Cool, now we have someone to blame it on.
Let the stoning begin.

My April special will probably pop before our group sub.

EagleEyeKid · May 4, 2009 4:30PM

The third batch; Order # 20285138 is listed in the Shared Orders Page as of 11:20PM Monday night,
but the view icon says it's still processing. I believe it's done and grades may be posted
Tuesday morning sometime, otherwise it would not be on that list.

Bosox1976 · May 4, 2009 8:27PM

So close...

gumbyfan · May 4, 2009 9:44PM

I know it's only 4:30am in California, but I keep clicking the link anyway.

Whoa! That's my order.

What a cruel, cruel thing to say if it's not true.

When I posted the cards I sent in, I finished up with "I guess I'll find out in a couple of months"
The date of that post was March 6th, so I always assumed the grades would pop tomorrow.

What is even more cruel is your post was number 1049 and officially takes me off the button as a possible winner in the guess the post count contest.

Good luck to next man up, xbaggypants, it looks like you may be a winner.
