Cards that were Modern when submitted will be vintage by the time they're returned.

What’s going to stop the backlog from starting all over again once psa lets the dam break again? I can see them at least putting a limit on submissions per month or so.

It's possible they'll try to control the inflow of new submissions through pricing models.

I *believe* they're trying to avoid a huge surge of ultra-modern cards. Don't be surprised if they have a separate tier for 2017-present or some similar date range.

So, if you use the #'s from the SCD article, which are 10,000,000 cards backlogged and they are grading 20,000 cards per day, and you do the math, that is 500 days until they catch up. There are 250 or so business days per year, so that is 2 years - not counting any new submissions that come in during that time period.
