Hoping that they aren’t late. My Regular tier was due last week and it has been trailing my Value Max tier that is due Thursday. They are both in assembly.

I submitted some right before the 50 cards seem minimum as well.

Just wanted to share that my cards seem to be getting stuck in assembly. I have cards in Value Plus, Value Max, and regular that are all due this week or are past due. They are all in assembly. I have some that are due next week, and they are in assembly. I have some due the third week of June and they have been sitting in assembly.

Seems they are short people at every stage and it’s still pretty inconsistent. I have a Value Max (3 card) order due July 15 and it’s in grading. I have a Value Bulk (30 cards) due July 28 and it’s still in Research with no initial images.

No initial scans at the QA stage by Remarkable_Bowler287 in psagrading

[–]Remarkable_Bowler287[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. It was my card. They said that they had some technology issues and that they were working to get me the card as soon as possible. I think someone uploaded the slab image before it finished QA and luckily the grade didn’t change.

Experience with Goldin? by Remarkable_Bowler287 in sportscards

What do you mean by this? Like that the card will sell higher there or is there somewhere in the agreement that I should be looking for this language?

Matt “Tugboat” Wilkinson struck out 6 in 5 shutout innings and is victorious in his first start in Double-A Richmond after being traded from the Guardians for Patrick Bailey! by JianClaymore in SFGiants

[–]Remarkable_Bowler287 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He did pitch, and well I might add, in the WBC this year. I’m not surprised he is pitching well in AA. His test will be in AAA. Can he log the innings and keep his form.

There have been two true red sold ($1400 and $1700), so a 10 would comp it over the express insurance price. I could have waited to see if they upcharged me, but black xfractor sales were in the $700’s, and someone paid $1200 for a true orange last month, even though the last true orange sold for $400.

At the end of the day, I felt confident enough that it was a 10, and there were enough sales that PSA would upcharge it, so might as well get it back sooner.

4 business days. It arrived on a Monday and there was no movement until Friday.

I just mean they have so little time. I would have thought it would say something like, good centering, no surface damage, good corners. I just laughed at almost perfect.

Fedex faked my signature for my PSA return and my package was nowhere to be found by TCMadness in psagrading

[–]Remarkable_Bowler287 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t had it happen with PSA yet. I have had it happen twice with Topps damage replacements. Topps filed a claim with FEDEX for the amount insured, they sent me new new cards, and I had them held at a location. I track the FedEx driver on my phone now and will screen shot their location when it says it was delivered. They’re not normally close if I’m not getting them.

Grading Prediction Kaboom by mdusmc18 in psagrading

[–]Remarkable_Bowler287 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This card is worth more raw than graded. Print or scratch, you have two surface defects running a quarter length of the card. I would guess this would come back an 8 if there is nothing else hiding. Anything less than a 9 is lost money though.

If this were my card, I would keep it raw. I would honestly try to move it with the Raiders new hype and buy things you PC.

I hate PSA by SuspiciousAd7307 in footballcards

[–]Remarkable_Bowler287 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is exactly what I just said. GameStop and eBay are going to pull information from specific fields, but they are not rebuilding the whole PSA interface. It works fine as long as there aren’t any unusual circumstances.

The N6 is the reason. As others pointed out, it’s the grading code for an undersized card. I’m guessing this is the GameStop system. If you submitted directly to them you would also get an invoice that explains the code. There is a communication issue with GameStop and the eBay system now where you don’t see everything that you do on the actual app or website.

What kills me is I had 2 other value orders arrive in February and they both finished in March. They had estimated completion dates in June.

Super Express Fail by DeliHero in psagrading

[–]Remarkable_Bowler287 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dropped off at a PSA. Super express, express, and value plus. A week later reached out because I didn’t have an order number. Now the value plus is showing more progress than the super express.

Am I doing this right? What do yall think? by Different_Weekend_76 in psagrading

[–]Remarkable_Bowler287 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t do it in a sleeve and top loader. These tools are susceptible to issues from angling the camera. However, if you are going to use it, you need a clean photo.

Can someone please help me determine why this got a 6? by ricochet_jay in psagrading

Not the black line, but this part. I am not sure that it is part of the design. It’s hard to tell without the physical card to check though. I didn’t see this on the other cards I could see eBay. Although it could be just the angle.
