SGC picked up my package at the post office? SGC offices currently closed?

My guess is nobody was there when they attempted delivery (early AM perhaps), so they went to pick it up. I would not worry at all. It can take a few days to log in and they are likely backed up from missing 5 days at the show.

Hmm, so the SGC offices are closed right now? Because of the various shows?

I doubt it, they might not get there first thing in the AM though and maybe that's when their mail comes. It will be fine.

I have been under the impression the address to which submissions are sent is a mail box center and not SGC's physical address where the cards are graded. Rather than posting into a vacuum it might make sense to phone them, as was suggested.

No disrespect to the OP but I never understood why people post issues like this on chat boards rather than going directly to the company with whom they have a question. Seems far more efficient.

That’s actually what I did. Should have mentioned that. I called them and I get their voicemail which says their office is closed. This was today around 10am eastern time.

That doesn't sound right to me since those places are always open during business hours to take deliveries, whereas on at least a couple of occasions cards I have sent to SGC have had notices left and been picked up later or the next day at the PO. But I don't know for sure.

You could be right but in a recent conversation with someone at SGC I was told they pick up packages 2 times a day which suggested to me their shipping addy is not the same as the grading addy. It was not an issue to me so I did not pay further attention to it.
