I actually know a guy who helps large businesses with this type of transformation….

All levity aside - I had planned on getting my set graded all by PSA when it was done (which it is) however I’m 36 years old and cannot imagine parting with such a large part of my set for over a year when a competitor does it in 1/12th the time (if I line up for PSA grading and I live to be 80 years old, I’d essentially be giving up my cards for 2.3% of my remaining life, pass on that).

Real curious to hear if they are working on solutions. Thanks!
Yes, the solution has been to lower the submission price thus presumably increasing the flow of submissions and ADDING to the backlog.
