You waited a year and a half for 266 cards to come back to you?

Anything for a deal. Yes it was a year and a half wait, but we paid $9/card for grading.

We paid it before the shutdown. Back when everything was normal. Before PSA got innundated with a million Pokemon cards. We had no idea it was going to take a year and a half. To be frank, we will probably never get to pay below $10 per card for grading ever again.

1) It was a serious question.

2) Belize is a beautiful country. You should visit. Try the chocolate.

Thank you for the explanation. That makes sense. I only submit to SGC so I have no experience with PSA's turnaround times.

Glad to see these cards got graded before the upcoming Sagging Seventies promotion.

I have visited Belize. That is why I mentioned it.

Guys....I sure hope this isn't the case, and I am not trying to jinx us, but PSA gave me a tracking number with no activity on it.

Of course nothing is easy. The saga continues...

bobbyw8469 09-28-2022 06:13 PM

Why do I seem to be the only one upset about the missing order!?!?!?!?

Maybe they have their own postal meter and assign a tracking number before actually posting the package. Lets see if there's any movement in the morning.

That happened to myself and another collector friend of mine last week. Took several days for the shipment to actually get shipped after shipping number created by PSA.
Hopefully that's all it is.

Were the cards insured, or are we out the cards’ market value and the grading fees? If there is no evidence that the USPS ever took possession, how is PSA not liable?

When I personally ship cards, I watch the counter person scan the package and receive a receipt. Does that not occur at PSA? When the USPS package handler comes to PSA and picks up packages, are they not scanned immediately into the system with a handheld device and a receipt created?

You had a prior submission get “lost.” That’s twice in what a year? Please tell me you are going to make a call and kick some butt. How does two submissions go missing in a year? PSA has some explaining to do. Please stay on this.

Yeah, I’m not happy about losing over four figures worth of cards, but those cards have been in my family since they were pulled from the packs. I want the cards!

Oh really???? I have NEVER had an order take several days after the shipping number was created. It was always same day.

PSA has been running a day or two for it to show up beyond "tracking number created" recently...I've had two orders ship within the last week and that was the case both times.

Thank you Mike. I hope that is the case this time. If another one of my packages happens to get "lost".......well........let's just say it won't be good.

Bobby what was the outcome of the other package?
Did it finally get to you, if not were you compensated for its contents?

It never got to me. PSA had to cut us a large check based upon the declared value of the cards. I guess that is why I am a little leery about this one too. I already lived through it once.

Jay Wolt 09-29-2022 11:10 AM

Thanks for the response, hopefully that was a 1 & done scenario & this package reaches you.

We got the package today. It was weird, because it got no scans whatsoever, until it got a delivery scan today.

Vegas Cards 09-29-2022 11:18 AM

Thanks for the update. Great news. I saw the data USPS provided for your tracking number, and yes, it looks really weird. Nothing showing the cards were picked up, and then almost straight to delivered.

Totally understand your worries. Once bitten, twice shy as they say.

Bobby, you son of a gun! You got us worked up for nothing! Haha. Thanks for the updated great news. Thanks for doing this group. We all appreciate it.

bobbyw8469 09-29-2022 05:50 PM

OK Guys....I have spent the last hour and a half putting these in chronological order and I am STILL NOT DONE!!! Also, I have a commitment at my job, so I am unable to do anything card related tomorrow......but I promise....Come monday, I will be contacting people asking if they need special services or anything. Thanks for beating with me.

bobbyw8469 09-30-2022 06:11 AM

I was able to get a few boxed up and are going out today. The rest of you guys will be early next week. Stay tuned.

You are welcome!! That was a nice 1965 set you had!! That Olivia PSA 8 was sweet as well........I'm just sorry for the "slight delay" you had with PSA.

Tyruscobb 10-04-2022 07:11 AM

Hey Bobby,

Just picked up my cards this morning. Thanks for everything!

Imagine the excitement of coming home to this, like I did today!!!!!!

Attachment 537284

After over a year and a half of labor (by Bobby), my 14 lb., 4oz. miracle has finally arrived!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Cigars for everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I know, I know, tobacco bad...and it probably contains gluten, whatever that is.)

Woo hoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Attachment 537285

Wait...how concerned should I be that his skin color doesn't match me or his mom's????? Has she been cheating on me by buying cards from places other than eBay?????? Now my heart is broken. It's always the ones you trust who screw you over.


To Bobby:
I know we sent you a ramshackle card with a very bizarre gift card amount, but allow me to reiterate (hopefully for everyone)...

Thank you so much for doing these group subs for us!!!!

What an absolute pain-in-the-butt it must be dealing with not only all of us, but the TPG people as well, and you never complain or bitch and moan at people, even the godforsakenly frustrating ones. I can't even imagine the annoyance such an undertaking must become, but you do it anyway to help everyone out. Thank you, fine sir!!!! You are such a great asset to this site (and the world)!!!!!!!!!!!

Phil are you selling some of the cards you got back?

After a year and a half, I guess I learned to live without the cards I had submitted. I just sold the three Maris cards and I've already consigned my 1965 set to an auction house. Likely more will be listed.

I am, I've gone further down the pre-war rabbit hole in the last 18 months. If you don't hear from me for 6 months call the Gendarmeire, they can find me locked up in Luckey or Hotchkiss's basement living on bread and water while searching for some elusive off back that some guy in Ohio allegedly owns, or knows a guy....
