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.

How long did it take to get the crossover card back? I've been considering this as well as possible "reholder" service, but I'm not sure of the time frame for either.
