I also have an Express service update.
2 cards submitted for Express which were received on 10/20 by PSA. Went into grading on 10/22 and was in QA2 on 10/26. Grades popped today 10/27 via the upgrade fee email because one of my cards got a 10 which increased the grading fee.
Funny thing about that card is that I bought in an SGC 10 slab. I looked at it closely with a loupe and knew it would cross to a PSA 10 as it was perfect in all aspects. Also, the slab was new and very clear and easy to see through, so I sent it in as a crossover to PSA in the SGC holder (which I usually don't do, but did so in this case because the slab was perfectly clear). PSA rejected it for 'Mingrade'. The grader was kind enough to put a little sticky note on the back that read "Corner -->" which pointed to the bottom right back corner. So I looked at that corner again under 30x magnification and it was as perfect as a corner gets. I looked at the other corners again just in case he accidentally pointed to the wrong corner and again, all 4 corners were perfectly razor-sharp even under 30x magnification. Pretty frustrating, but not surprising. So I just cracked it out and sent it in raw, and surprise surprise, it's coming back in a PSA 10 holder. Their crossover service is pretty frustrating to say the least.
