    Trying to get Turnaround Times nailed down a little more accurately

    I have a bulk order received 4/13 that was in GEI for a week and now is in Grading/QC status. I’m hopeful that means they’re almost about to ship but not quite sure what that status means. Would be nice if they were to update status explanations. Can anyone with a recently returned shipment let me know what that status means? Thanks 

    Here is what I saw on the website:

     

    Received

    The submitted cards have been counted and entered in CSG’s computer system along with the submitter information, submission date and requested service(s).

    In the next step, a detailed description of each card will be entered in CSG’s computer system (a process commonly called “verification”). The cards will be separated from any paperwork that would identify the submitter and the submission will be prepared for grading.

    Scheduled for Grading

    Each card has now been described in detail in CSG’s computer system and checked against the submitter’s descriptions. A unique identification number has been assigned to each card. These identification numbers are printed on temporary holders and will be used to track each card throughout CSG’s grading process.

    Submissions are then arranged by service and received date so that they can be graded on a "first in-first out" basis by service level.

    Grading / Encapsulation / Imaging

    Cards are authenticated, graded and encapsulated. Once encapsulated, they are re-examined to verify that the grade and accompanying description are correct. The holder is also checked for defects such as scuffs or nicks.

    After grading and encapsulation, cards are imaged.

    Quality Control / Finalized

    Cards are inspected and approved in Quality Control before being carefully packaged to return to the submitter.

    Shipped

    Cards have been certified, imaged, inspected and approved in Quality Control, carefully packaged and are being shipped back to the submitter. Grades and card details are now available for viewing online.

    Just sent in my first order with CSG and couldn't be more pumped. I did a 51 card bulk order and it was received on 4/14. The order contained a lot of 1990 Hoops junk wax and some Panini Chronicles football and basketball from 2020. Just got marked as shipped today (4/26). I wasn't expecting any gems, but got 10 out of 51, which exceeded my expectations. Unbelievable turnaround time!

    Hey everyone,

     

    Newbie here. Has anyone ever used Myslabs.com to sell their graded cards? If so, what are your thoughts on the platform? Pluses, minuses? I'm getting tired of paying all the Ebay fees. 

     

    Thanks for any feedback.
