Anyone else waiting on an Economy submission? It was 31 days Friday, now it's 37 days?

I was pretty pumped for this week, since by my count my submission logged in December 4th should be coming up today or tomorrow, based on 31 days. But as of this morning it's 37 days for Economy.

Does this change mean I have to wait more than another week?

I still don't know if the 37 days means that 1) Economy submissions coming out today were on average submitted 37 business days ago, or 2) Economy submissions arriving today are estimated to take 37 business days from now, given the backlog and how many they process each day?

Anyway, still waiting, like a lot of others, I imagine.

    You got how many holidays and weekends there?

    I'm assuming every weekend day doesn't count, and I'm assuming five holidays (Christmas Eve and Day, New Year's Eve and Day, and MLK day) since Thanksgiving.

    I've got 2 Economy submissions in also. Submission date was 11/29/2012, entered 12/04/2012. Hopefully this week.......

    I'm still waiting on on an economy submission entered in the system 11/29. They don't care about Economy submissions, that's pretty obviousimage

    Are those raw coins for grading or crossover coins?

    Crossover coins can take 10+ business days longer than what's advertised at least that's been my experience

    Also did you specify a trueview photo.? That can add 5 days

    I had no crossovers or TruViews, just 7 franklins, two indian head cents and three nickels.

    Mine were submitted raw, no extra services.

    One of my 11/30 orders posted grades on Friday, but the second one is still in process. One coin in that batch has a variety attribution.
    When in doubt, don't.
  • bigolebigole Posts: 385 ✭✭✭
    DennisH- thanks for the potential good news. If November 30 posted Friday, then December 4th shouldn't be too far behind.
  • DIMEMANDIMEMAN Posts: 22,403 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Mine have only been in since Jan 16th and they are variety also so it may be Easter before I see mine! image

    I see the turn around time in economy is at 37 days now.

    You should probably assume a few more days.

    I'm not holding my breath on my submission of economy logged in on Dec 12th....
    From the sounds of it, it could be awhile.

    When in doubt, don't.

    Service U.S. World
    Regular 18 24
    Economy 40 53
    Modern 22 29
    Express 7 5
    All turnaround times in business days


    So now it's 2 months for economy, 1 month for regular and a week and a half for express. That's a long time!!

    Since I started this thread here is an update. I got my Dec 4th submission grades on Wednesday and then was shocked to get my Dec 10 submission on Thursday. ALL IS WELL FOR ME!

    They are still working down the giant pile of submissions that came in at the end of 2012 to beat the price increase. I tagged along with another forumite on a submission that got in just under the wire on 12/27, I'd rather wait a few extra weeks than pay the new prices.

    I got results today on my crossover submission that went live in the system on Nov. 30. image
    When in doubt, don't.

    It's 40 business days now. That is at least 2 1/2 months from when you send until they come back. Since mostly common date coins are sent in under this service, is it really worth waiting that long to get a 63 or 64 Morgan? I predict a serious drop in the number of low value coins being graded.

    AND, even regular service is going to be about 5 weeks now.

  • Psychology is Odd. I had some coins sitting around for perhaps 3 yrs, just never got around to submitting these particular ones. No big deal. That is until I submit them. That's when the anxious wait begins. A couple more mths shouldn't matter, but it's like the week before xmas it seems.

    I sent in 11 crossovers and 47 raw coins to be graded and attributed (all Morgans). The 47 coin order was logged in 11/28 and I got the grades this past Tuesday. My crossover order logged 12/4 and those graded came in a day earlier Monday.
  • Regular tier logged 12/31 and still no results

    i'm just hoping they are grading my coins so high it is taking them forever to log in all the 000000s

    if they'd just give me my pr70 franklin i'd pea happy as a pig in *#*#&

    How many graders are they down?? Anyone heard/know? That has to contributing to the extended times.......

    Who remembers the days when we were waiting 70-80 business days for submission results? This seems paltry to that........ image
