Some super fast poppage!!!

divecchia

Here's some super fast poppage from a small batch of Nolan Ryan and Tom Seaver baseball cards. The grades are pretty much what I thought, except for the 1991 Pacific Silver Holograms. I thought both of those cards should have been PSA 9's, but to be fair I did not think I would get as many PSA 9's as I did on the 1992 Pacific Gold cards. So I'm very happy overall.

Thanks for looking,
Donato

How fast did they pop?

They were logged in on September 19th and they popped on September 24th. That's only 3-4 business days on a 20 day sub.

Yep...I think it's pretty random when things pop. If you ever watch the PSA tutorial video, I imagine that is how they do it for real - someone rolls around with a cart full of cards (kinda like a dim sum restaurant), and the graders randomly pick at boxes on the cart.

Wish I understood the algorithm for submission poppage?
FIFO
FILO
LIFO
LILO
NROR (No Rhyme Or Reason)

Crazy

Doesn't FIFO=LILO? From reading these boards, NROR would get my vote.

Great Ryan grades. Congrats, Donato!

Yes, FIFO=LILO. FILO also is the same as LIFO. That having been said, there does seem to be a bit of randomness on POP times. I'd like to better understand the logic behind this too. I wonder if it's normally FIFO but with a sort of "RAOK" (Random Act of Kindness) like thing where they grab a longer sub and do it to brighten someone's day. This is my glass-half-full theory, LOL.

In all reality, I think it all boils down to whether the items submitted have an existing spec number or a new spec number has to be created.
Creating a new spec number takes PSA more time as the submitted item has to be researched.
