PSA photo authentication turnaround time

[the-illini]

Hello

Has anyone used PSA's photo authentication/holdering service lately? Are the turnaround times as bad as they currently are with cards?

Thanks

Chris

i HAVE USED THE PSA PHOTO AUTHENTICATION SERVICE IN THE LAST
SEVERAL MONTHS AND THE TIME IS SO MUCH BETTER. I ALSO HAD A PHOTO AUTHENTICATED AND THEN AUTOGRAPH AUTHENTICATED AND THAT WAS
PRETTY QUICK COMPARED TO CARD GRADING.

I might say, the cost on modern day player press photos authentication is terribly high, in my opinion.

That's pretty much a no-brainer determination that should take them about 8 seconds max. What did they charge (if you don't mind me asking?)

I got a North Carolina Jordan photo back in a couple of weeks this past summer.

Standard, no rush service.

Package arrived on 1/20 and has not been logged into the system yet if that's any indication. Have no idea what to expect on overall turnaround time.

Edited to add: I followed up with PSA and it's already been authenticated, so looks like turnaround times aren't bad at all right now.

It takes a highly skilled “authenticator.”
