I think you are worrying unnecessarily. I am sure the Post Office has procedures in place to make sure that doesn't happen.

Bump.

Anone recently received cards from SGC without any notice whatsoever? Again, surprised I’m the only one who I’ve seen mention this.

Peter, I’m not losing sleep over this and I’m sure I will get my cards, but it’s not exactly how I would prefer a submission to be handled either. I only hope i at least get a tracking number when they ship my cards.

I haven't received my cards yet, but my submission from the national hasn't yet been catalogued to SGC. In the past, it had at least been entered by now

Seems most people don't care, but here are the thoughts from one guy on Blowout.

Thanks. Again, surprised no one else seems concerned. My submission was modest by most standards.

Pick up the phone and call them. Posting here will not answer your questions on your order status.

I got cards back from SGC last week and never got any type of notice

Transition period for them as everyone knows. Be proactive. I just emailed Matt as he had told me last week my order would be ready today, and he wrote right back with the tracking number. This really isn't difficult, and I'm not a major submitter so I am not getting any special attention I assure you.

I called them last week, they weren't able to look up my order. I called them today and they said they are still unable to look it up but that I will get my cards on a one-weekish delay. That's all I get Peter.

Not much you can do then except wait and have faith I guess.

It may have been better if SGC had been more transparent publicly about their growing pains however slight delays should be something we are all used to when submitting cards. BVG is running a year behind and people have been complaining about delays at PSA for years. Hopefully it will have been worth the wait for you. SGC is a great company.

A year behind? Seriously? Ouch.

Their economy submissions are backed up 1 full year. Not sure about the faster service levels.

Look on the bright side of the 1 year turnaround. You can send modern cards in and they come back vintage.

i remember the episode of The Office when Michael started his own paper company. as it continued to lose money, an analyst told him that the quicker he sold more paper, the sooner he would be out of business. the prices he was charging for his product couldn’t support his business. i know PSA and SGC recently have increased prices, but I wonder if the grading companies have reached a point they never envisioned: their product is TOO much in demand, and they can’t keep up if they stay within the operating budgets they’ve set up.

Yes, this. They could have made a pop-up or something on the website that stated their current situation and warned about delays and that no confirmation email would be sent out, etc. I've basically had to figure this out on my own.
