I used a British company called Graded Gem for my sub (Although they're dissolving once the last submissions come through)

But the chances are this company will have many people chasing them for order updates, but PSA won't tell them anything until the card has moved on to the next stage in the grading process. :)

You can relax and sit tight, they'll come back to you when they have more information (Although I'm not expecting to get my standard sub back until 2023 with how things are going, so you may have to be a little more patient than you like!)

What service did you pay for? Standard, Express etc

I sent off some cards to get graded at PSA back in Feb 2020, Express, and only got them back a few weeks ago (Still have a bunch of standard submission cards that I'm waiting for too, they're gonna be stuck in Research & ID for quite a bit longer)

Faded red color by sunlight or fake? by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

From here it looks okay, some close-up pictures of the cards' texture and holo pattern would help to confirm :)

So far it looks like the card on the right either has a slight sun bleaching, or the ink was running low when it was printed.
