All were described appropriately via SGCs drop down menu

Graded fast...but no excuse

People really graded VG commons at $25 a card?

Do you have some examples of these backs next to the typical red backs and black backs that you can post? Same card side-by-side, one gray, one not?

Last time I had an issue with a couple of SGC graded cards, I reached out to customer service and they were on it right away. I literally received a phone call that evening from an executive and the following morning I had a FedEx overnight label in my inbox. I shipped the cards out from CA to FL that day, and literally had them back in hand with new holders 42 hours later. Granted, they were high-ish end cards, but the customer service I received was outstanding. Hopefully yours will be as well.

has anyone had a recent SGC submission?
what is their current timing from receipt of cards to the grading stage?

I sent in a small 9 card standard submission that was received on 9/21. It remains in "Received" status.

interesting... they were turning around in 10-14 days for a while. I doubt there are more submissions coming in now .... did they fire employees?

I sent 7 cards that were received 9/9. They just updated to ‘post grade processing’ today, 10/14.

Yes, they are receiving more submissions now. And you should expect the trend to continue until PSA reopens the floodgates. SGC is gaining significant market share. They are still hiring, not firing.

My last order with SGC was received on 9/2, graded on 10/4, and shipped back to me on 10/5.

I sent 10 T206s to SGC last week. My only choices of service were 45-60 days for $30 each or $2500 for 3 business days turnaround ( I assume that's for all 10 cards ) ?

good to hear that, but are you guessing? or do you know this to be the case... I find it hard to believe that submissions anywhere are higher than a few months ago..

SGC received my three cards on September 9th and they were graded on October 13th. They are shipping them back today. Since I live only 30 minutes away I should receive them tomorrow.

I know this to be the case that their submissions are increasing. Or rather, I take them at their word for it. Peter, the CEO, recently posted a video on social media where he talks about their decision to increase their promised turn-around times from 25-30 days to 45-60 days because they are getting slammed with an increase in submissions. It also aligns anecdotally with what I'm seeing on other forums and chat groups I've been in where a lot of submitters are making the transition over to SGC now because their turnaround times and customer service have been so good lately. Plus, the gap in sales prices between them and PSA has been narrowing. All are good signs for SGC. Also worth noting is that a lot of people were holding out in anticipation that PSA would have reopened bulk grading by now. I think they're slowly realizing that this actually isn't going to happen any time soon, so they're more willing to try out other options now.

i sent in 2 orders over the past few weeks. they are saying 45-50 business days now - not sure if that's accurate. my oldest one was received on sept 20, still in "received" mode.
