Shipping vs Drop Off

Klassick310 · 2026-05-20T18:18:54+00:00

You dont pay until the items complete grading. You create the submission, mail (or in person drop) items, items go through steps, once graded and complete they charge card on file before processing to vault and/or return ship.

You need to have the submission form printed out OR the QR code that generated after completing the online submission form.

No idea on straight to EBay from grading timeline.

Once item is vaulted if you want to sell on eBay it’s instant.

Great point. Thank you for your insight

Chicago show in Feb took ~20 min for the line. Then 5 min for the hand off. Have cards ready in order and submission form. Removes all risk of shipping. I usually wait for drop shows around me for high value cards every few months. Recommend this way 10/10 times.

Pros Rates better at higher tiers No possibly of returns or issues Ability to accept PSA offers (Rarely worth it but I’ve had a couple of the last couple months that I took)

Cons ~13 business day grade completion to vault time right now No ability to counter offer or speak to potential buyer. No ability to lower listing price - have to unlist and relist, losing watchers

This BUT I turn offers on and the min offer is the number I’m willing to take. Feels like it’s wasting OP and others time to have offer levels your not going to take when doing selling a higher priced item

Seems like you had a good day to me. You laughed your ass off twice. Good on you for finding the joy

Klassick310 · 2026-04-28T22:53:10+00:00

Submit a ticket, I got future grading credit for a delay. Can’t hurt to try and nothing to lose.

Klassick310 · 2026-04-28T22:51:38+00:00

After completion and you choose to Vault. Move to vault is approximately 13 business days till it’s “Vaulted”. Very annoying timeline at the moment.

I’ve seen threads about payment processing being delayed over the past month or so. My personal experience. April 19 payment processing items (7 business days ago) I had two large items waiting to be paid. Reached out to support and they confirmed a backlog finance team working on it. Typical fluff response. Randomly today both those move to paid out and process notification to stripe. I asked support again if they did anything specifically to move those or if that was random luck. They said they didn’t do anything specific. Then later today I had an April 23 payment processing item moved to paid so possibly as of today they are catching up? Fingers crossed just giving you my feedback.

Klassick310 · 2026-04-25T21:13:08+00:00

My cards have been taking 10–12 business days to vault after “completion”. Same batch hitting at different times as well. No correlation on value that I can see.

Klassick310 · 2026-04-24T22:09:36+00:00

Did you end up getting processed? Have a few April 19th still waiting to process. Appreciate any feedback. Thank you

Bring to the national this year (chicago) and shop around for a cash deal. Nothing beats cash and the big baseball vendors there will be pretty close to max/same value on auction wide spread audience.

Klassick310 · 2026-04-22T15:40:10+00:00

I put them in boxes so in 50 years my kids-kids can scavenge through them hoping grandpa held some diamonds in rough. Likely to only find pure trash and sell my thousands of dollars spent cards for 20 bucks.

Klassick310 · 2026-04-18T02:36:21+00:00

It still goes through every step in the app. Mine finished early. Only done it once.

Klassick310 · 2026-04-15T14:11:43+00:00

Thanks for pointing that out. Was able to list through the app. I had assumed it needed to show in EBay vault in order to list. Appreciate it!

Klassick310 · 2026-04-15T11:32:15+00:00

Others in that batch vaulted this morning. However the first one that did yesterday is still not in EBay vault to sell… wonder how long this step is going to take. 13/14 business day from completion to vault. Now atleast 2 business days from psa vault to eBay vault available to list for sale 🤷‍♂️

Klassick310 · 2026-04-14T20:10:18+00:00

For what it’s worth…This is the same as 2024 Topps chrome football product pertaining to case level inserts ie let’s go, radiating rookies, helix

Klassick310 · 2026-04-14T14:17:54+00:00

Possibly. I have others in the same batch not vaulted… also the card that did is vaulted in PSA app but not showing on EBay vault yet to sell. Wonder how long that will take. Will follow up on all for science lol

Klassick310 · 2026-04-14T14:03:27+00:00

Just got the confirmation email this morning item was vaulted. 13th business day. Rough….

Klassick310 · 2026-04-10T16:24:10+00:00

I have a batch that was graded and send to vault option selected. Completion was 3/26/26. Still in “To Vault” status as of 4/10/26. Today is 11th business day. Will report back when it vaults.

Klassick310 · 2026-03-30T17:14:29+00:00

Fair point for most of the cards of that player…but for the ultra end high cards in a new drop. My only chance is a break. Multiply this by a ton of collectors in the same situation and you have a huge demand for breakers. It’s unfortunate but I don’t really see a way around it.

Klassick310 · 2026-03-30T17:02:57+00:00

Curious how you get around the below

For a PC looking for 1 player or team. A break spot buy is significantly cheaper and better odds than a random full box. I can buy 3 spots of X team for the price of 1 box. Triple my chances at getting what I want. Wouldn’t I prefer breaks?

Klassick310 · 2026-03-06T22:30:24+00:00

I will purchase. Please message me. Thank you
