    NO, please say it aint so.

    I have one coin there right now which I was hoping to time right and get it back before the ANA show in Phoenix.

    I'll cross my fingers.

    I have some coins that I sent in for reholdering and true views that were logged in on 1/21, and still nothing!!!

    They are WAY behind, at least that's what I was told by customer service just a few moments ago.

    Anyone else having delays with their submissions?

    On-site grading at shows (FUN and Long Beach) tends to really slow down things back at the office. I've actually been a bit surprised at how quickly things have been getting done lately.
    When in doubt, don't.

    Where were you people when economy submissions were taking 4 to 5 MONTHS!!! A Jan submission might post by Memorial Day! I'm so glad those days are OVER!!

    2 to 3 times as long as advertised turn around time. I understand these aren't guaranteed-yet when you pop the extra few bucks for regular or express you hope to get more than economy service.

    Advertised turnaround is 20 to 30 business days. Submissions have been taking 40 to 90 business days?

    Have five submissions in right now. They probably think I'm trying to do a denial of service attack on their site as many times a day as I check in on them. image
