I’ve got about 4 orders pending with PSA atm, they’ve switched to a different way of viewing orders (yucky). When i click into an order that’s in progress, it shows the 8 steps. There has always been 8 steps with the final two prior to shipping being QACheck 1 and QACheck2. They have now consolidated QACheck 1 and QACheck2 into 1 step (the last step before shipping). Interestingly, the order status now shows the second last step (step 6) as being ‘Grades released’ Is this a new feature? It’s pretty neat, although it would suck to see some high grades being dropped after ‘QAChecks’ taking place. ---

Yes, PSA now reveals the grades earlier (right after sealing cards into slabs) so you can choose to have some of your order forwarded to Vault or Goldin based on grades. Here’s their official announcement: > However past experiences tell us that PSA can change the grades if they found something wrong in QA stages. How they’re going to deal with similar situations now that customers know the grades before QA is something that we’ll have to keep watching. ---

Qa1 and qa2 combined into one step. Conspiracy theorists will say it’s a fake step! ---

Just had an order completed. I did not see grades until shipped unfortunately. Also, I cant see an easy image of the completed card. I have to copy and paste the cert to then verify it. The new system sucks lol ![Screenshot_20230907-085200](https://efour.b-cdn.net/uploads/default/original/3X/6/0/60cba575b4e24dcc757fa3a2974f84bfaf0c60cf.png) ---

I just had an order complete grading and was able to view scans and grades in the app easily. Maybe you were just unlucky there. ---

I noticed this too yesterday/today. Coincidentally my bulk order went from Assembly to QA1 to charged/grades are now ready extremely quickly (about 4 days). Not sure if coinciding with this step change or PSA improving the turnarounds now or what. ---

I think its because your order was far progressed under the original process. Im sure any new submissions you make or aleady have that are earlier in the process, will benefit from being able to see the grades prior to QAcheck. Hope there was some nice results 🙂 ---

Interestingly, i had two of my orders jump to grading in the last few hours. perhaps the status of orders were frozen for a few days while they were implementing the new view. ---

Same for me actually! (on my single remaining order). Took three weeks+ to get inputted after it was delivered but then only spent 48 hours in research before jumping to grading this morning. Also the beta reverted to the usual PSA order page for me which I’m happy about ---
