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.
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.....

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!"
<< <i>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? >>
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.)
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...

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.

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

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.

Cool, now we have someone to blame it on.
Let the stoning begin.
My April special will probably pop before our group sub.
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.
