Nice! Tomorrow will be a month they have had my cards. I think throwing some Japanese cards into the mix might have slowed down my order....

How long do cards usually sit in “post grading processing ?”

Remains to be seen, but a few days at most I imagine.

Mine's finally getting close!

Submitted - 11/27
Received - 12/4
Post-Grading - 1/12
Grading & Shipment - ?

They decided not to grade my Calbee Homerun cards (even after I made a 400-card photo-reference website for them), but for a hot second they considered it, as I saw 3 of them switch from "Do Not Grade No Charge" to the actual card info, before they ultimately changed them back to "Do Not Grade".

And as for the processing time discrepancy on my order....well, I am keeping SGC on their toes. Besides confusing them with my Calbee Homerun cards, three other cards had slowed down the order:

1) One card is now entered as "Hand cut" (so maybe there was a decision to be made about that)
2) One card was a stamped "Prize" card (in the same vein of the Cablee Homerun cards, but Yamakatsu factory-stamped a logo on the back) that I assume they had to decide whether to grade and how to label
3) The final troublesome card was from a 1957 set, but the player was from 1958, so it probably required a decision on renaming the whole set. I do see that it has been entered as 1958 on my invoice

Now to wait for grades to populate......

Quite a delay on a 5-10 day sub but I think it was due to the Wheaties card that was oversized.

I do have one card headed back with a labeling error.

Yeah, I threw a Wheaties card into the mix and that’s probably what held me up.
