Probably the market wouldn’t justify but… “Would you consider opening a small branch in Europe?” 😁 ---

My question would be: Why not First in-First out by service level? Bonus question: What was with the 8.5’s in January? Edit: @garyis2000 I made it less critical so as not to derail. A question by itself can’t really be negative, though the answer can shed a negative light for sure. ---

> [@crios711](#): > > What is the turn around for your employees is something I would want to know. The official answer on that one is easy. A: Each order is stripped of any identifying information relating it to the submitters, so no preferential (or selectively harsh) treatment can or will be given. I.e. the service level for employees would be subject to the same variance as non employees. ---

> [@styluspt](#): > > Probably the market wouldn’t justify but… “Would you consider opening a small branch in Europe?” 😁 ``` Dang, beaten to it. That was my first question. I suspect the demand from the Pokemon market would be sufficient but I don't know much about sports card demand in Europe. So my second question would be: "how many legitimate signatures do you need to start grading a certain signed card?" ``` ---

So there is that little huge niche. ---

I have **a** 5 part question: How many graders are in the Pokemon rotation, and what’s the likelihood of me getting the same grader, and do graders rotate card types (to gain experience & be more valuable to the company), and are graders paid based on productivity or work hours, and does the card value change how hard/long a grader analyzing a card if it’s under the special minimum ($300?)? In all seriousness, I would be happy with just knowing how many graders grade Pokemon. ---

I would ask: How long does it usually take the grader to inspect the card and give it its grade. How long does this process usually take? A minute? 5 mins? ---
