Current PSA Grading Submissions

Hello!

I was wondering if now is as good a time as any to be thinking about doing a PSA submission. I’ve heard various rumors about PSA being backed up. I have a few cards that I have been wanting to submit for the past few months and was wondering what you trainers thought about the current submission climate. I thought about sending them through TCA Gaming since I watch his youtube channel and have purchased from him in the past. Do you trainers think it would be fair to wait or should I just go ahead and follow through with it anyway?

Thanks for your time!

PSA being backed up is far from a rumor - their own CEO admits they have a backlog of over a million cards - and that was before coronavirus.

Then add in the spike in the value of collectable items recently and the fact that PSA wasn’t grading anything for a couple of months. Oh, and don’t forget the $7.50 special they decided to throw for bulk Pokemon orders!

The point is - yeah, you’re going to be waiting a looooooooong time if you want to submit a bulk order to PSA.

But you know what? The time isn’t going to be any sooner if you decide to wait. So if you know you want some cards graded, you might as well jump in now.

I have been sending numerous orders in during the thick of thing. where i see them back up is in the initial entering of your sub into the system and then shipping. I know right now that it is taking like 2-3 weeks to ship out orders once they are completed so my subs have been sitting on QA2 for forever which in my opinion is the worst because of the anticipation. Everyone is different but to be honest i think they have been handling it pretty well.

If you’re planning on doing a PSA submission the best advice I could give is to submit sooner than later.

@rush27 ,@hyruleguardian ,@surgenius ,@fresh , Thanks for the help! I’ll go for it.

Ludkins is a pretty sweet option too if you don’t already have a PSA membership. I was in the same situation you were last month and finially decided to get it over with and submit through ludkins. I plan on doing a submission every month or 2 from now on so once the long wait is over I’ll be getting a steady trickle of cards back consistently.

@amcgl58,I’m definitely going to be looking into them. I do not have a PSA membership. I only have 5 cards that I would like to be graded at the moment. Thanks for mentioning them!
