my standard TCG 10 card sub

Delivered: 4/5

received: 6/17

Scheduled for grading: 6/22

grading: 6/29

Shipped: wtf?

How can the same type of sub be delivered OVER A MONTH before this completed sub and still not be done? I’m a bit confused at this.  (Hoping for your good grades btw Kylez450)

Yeah idk how mine got thru so quick. I didn’t send it with any express or walkthrough. I assume that since I paid to require a signature that it was thrown in on top or in a separate pile? I also wrote Standard all over the box. My 1/28 bulk has been stuck in scheduled for grading for 40 days , so it’s not all my orders ):

I think it's because his was 4/5. Mine was a 4/2 delivery that didn't get done until 7/1. They didn't have us write ST on the boxes at the end of March and it was sitting with the bulk. I'm assuming his got opened sooner because it was marked. I think it just gets added to the back of the SFG pile when it's opened regardless of when it came in. Really shafted everyone on the early April standard subs.

Still no updates. Guess I'll check back in a year lmao

My bulk w/subgrades was delivered the same day as yours. The recent reduction in the turn around times gave me hope, but I don’t think we’ll see our cards until November.

April submission finally opened! Just to confirm for everyone who wasn't instructed to write "ST" on their late-March/early-April submissions, I did call customer service on an unrelated issue with my second submission and brought up the question many of us had as to whether they would be moving those submissions through faster because the lack of the "ST" instruction when submitted. The answer is yes, they intend to move those submissions up the line and work through them quicker to try to keep it closer to the originally quoted turn around time. Excited to see some movement on my first standard sub!

Has anybody had their cards go through the Grading/Quality Control recently that could give me an idea of the current pace?

 

I have a 15 card Economy submission with subgrades. Received 2/1, I don’t remember when it got to “Scheduled for Grading” but I feel like it was in that step for 5 or 6 weeks. It changed to Grading/Quality Control this morning.

Thank you for the update. I think November is optimistic, but I'm hoping you are right lol

I sent out my cards express in may... They still haven't arrived or anything. I submitted a Japanese Neo Genesis Lugia and an Error Ampharos. Both of them express and it's now July with no sort of update. Not really sure what the deal is.

My Bulk with subs received 2/2/21 just shipped today! Super excited!

My bulk subs both received on 2/2/21 are still on Scheduled for grading.  Nice to see a little more recent progress though.

Did you tattoo "express" on your forehead and cut off your left hand? That is what you are supposed to do to get your cards back within the estimated express turnaround time. It's gettin' hard out here for a collector.

How big was each submission, because ive heard lower amount of cards in submissions get out days faster than high amount of cards in a submissions but i dont know if thats true. 

I have 2 subs in right now

2/8 bulk: scheduled for grading 

2/8 bulk with sub grades: scheduled for grading

with the time dropping too by like 30 days, im hoping to see my cards back soon due to me sending them in when the tat time was 45 days

My 2 subs are updated 7/8

2/8 bulk: grading/imaging

2/8 bulk w/ subs: grading/imaging

 

approx how long will it be until i get my cards back do you guys think?
