They want to wait until after labor day, vacations and all.

The East Coast office is all but done. Just finalizing the lease and security. Sorry, but no on site card grading. The initial purpose of the East coast office is for autographed items such as helmets, hockey sticks, bats and things along these lines that would be difficult to ship. PSA is trying to accommodate dealers / collectors so they don't have to ship these type items back and forth across the states.

That is awesome news for me. Will we be able to drop off and pick these items up?

Why don't they just put it in Chicago near Steve Hart? They could speed up the process of pack grading and probably reduce the cost. Perhaps they could then also offer pack grading specials.

Minimal office space in Central, NJ (Woodbridge area) from what I've heard. Just a drop off for PSA (still ships to CA) and onsite for PSA/DNA only. Last I heard it was expected for late August/early September.

Yes sounds like no card grading here to start, just autographed large items.

thanks, more details than what I heard before. sounds like a waste of time for the majority of collectors

I don't think it is about the collectors, but rather a weigh station for accepting submissions, but also allowing more ease to attend East Coast shows for on-site submissions (not grading).
