Throwing this out there because it seems like the info we’ve gotten may not be 100% true.  My bulk order went into Grading/QC status about a month ago.  Status disappeared about 3 weeks ago.  I was told the same thing that is posted in this thread.  Status disappearing = progress.  Unfortunately that isn’t the case and my status finally updated again after 3 weeks of being blank and I’m back in grading/QC.  I was expecting finalized/shipped.  Bummer....

I guess that gold Bieber is a keeper, huh? Not that the rest aren't too.

Haha, I listed the Betts as a BIN/BO as a test of valuation vs other higher end graded cards.  Bieber is my favorite pitcher in the league right now and I can’t see moving it.  I pulled and held that one since release...  knew it was one of the cleaner cards in my collection and happy to have it validated by CSG.

Awesome Soto Pristine 10!

Thank you!  I subbed 7 and all gemmed with this one coming back pristine.

Glass half full kind of thing...  I graded them more for preservation than secondary value.  Auto grades are certainly something that an average collector shouldn’t really rely on to determine if they like the way the signature looks IMO.  I’m indifferent towards the “grade” of an auto and rely more on the aesthetic of the auto to determine if I favor one vs another...

No, all manufacturer autos (pack-pulled) must have the auto graded.

 

Interesting.  I was an early adopter and I paid for the auto grading but y’all returned them to me without them.  Not bringing it up as a complaint on my part.  I don’t mind eating the $10 and don’t want to deal with a resub to fix.

Here are a few that I already received back from my first sub.  Love the look of the cards in the holders and the grading quality was spot on in my first 17 cards.  We shall see if that continues when I get back my bulk sub with the next 127.

Not a complaint.  Love this company and you’re now my exclusive graders.

I have an order that’s been in grading/imaging/qc status for over a week.  Is that typical?  It only took like 2 days with my first order and I figured once I was at this phase it wouldn’t take long for grades to pop and my cards be shipped...

Thanks and keep up the great work!
