Just curious does anyone of you ever wait for the package from PSA before looking to see what grades your cards got? I just submitted a bunch of cards for grading and I think I will wait for package to discover what I got. More exciting for me.

    That would be like waiting until your child is born to find out what the sex is... no way. lol

    I know some people can wait, but I'm checking like every day and twice on Sunday.

    Now that PSA ships Priority, I always get my cards in 2 days, 3 max so the wait isn't long.

    I waited just once for them to arrive and probably never will again.

    I check for poppage 2-3 times a day so I gotta know right away.

    It makes the delivery even better knowing what is in there.

    I waited on both of my kids...

    I do! I would much rather have the Christmas scenario versus just reading what I got.

    I never check grades beforehand--love the excitement of going through each card/pack as it arrives--like Christmnas morning, LOL!

    Edit to add: I'm on like Day 65 (12/5) for my last pack sub--hope it pops soon!!

    The 3 times I sent cards in to get graded, I looked at the results twice before recieving the cards. The last time I sent cards in I tried my hardest to not look at the email and I actually kinda enjoyed the suspense of waiting to see my grades. I think I will wait again.

    I disagree. I believe a better analogy would be waiting until your child is born to find out that your wife was pregnant. At least with the name scenario, you know (roughly) when your kid is showing up. Now, if gestational time for humans was variable between 10 and 75 days, the name analogy might work. image
