SGC grading is super fast.

[Lorewalker]

Trent,

SGC has done a great job since expanding and being able to deliver faster turnaround times for less money than all of their competitors. My point, which you have missed because you took offense to my post, is that all 4 TPG are returning cards much faster than they had been even 2 months ago. It suggests that all of them...including SGC are returning cards faster because they are all getting fewer cards. If you want to believe it is because SGC is even more efficient now then run with it.

That's much better than PSA. My 20 card Economy submission is now on day 87 and still in QA Check 1. They have not been doing submissions in order either. When they started their Economy Events back in January they were returning orders in 5-7 weeks. That doesn't seem to be the case at all now.

I sent two orders to SGC and got them back within 10 days.

I'm also waiting for two bulk orders at PSA since March 2021.

To Notfast- way to miss the point! Since you're into parsing words, I'll make
it really basic. Chick Fila is a restaurant where a customer can go in, or get
food by driving through(!) the property and getting food from workers who
are NOT inside. And Chick Fil A does indeed have a "window" where both
payment AND food/drink are exchanged (unless I've been having out of
body experiences while there). Any comment on the actual topic?

Lorewalker- I didn't miss your point, I defeated it. If you want to refer to
being correct as "running with it", then by all means...run with it.

To prestigecollectibles(Robert)- thanks for the lucidity and real world
example. It's not that difficult, gang!

Wow I definitely missed the part where you defeated my point but how about I give you an "atta boy" for the effort? Seems very much like you need it. And of the two of us, I am definitely not the one hung up on needing to be correct.

[ClementeFanOh]

Lorewalker- you're not "hung up", but you keep replying...got it. If you and
BobC can find a few more Infinity Stones, you can use the Gauntlet against
me! Trent King

[Lorewalker]

King Trent are you an adult? Just checking. Might want to find one who can read this thread to you and explain it. But you really do not look THAT foolish, honestly.

[ClementeFanOh]

Lorewalker- have you been checked for a cranial/rectal inversion lately? And
you DO look foolish (honestly). Keep trying, hoss! Trent King

+1

Orioles 1954

-1

Gosh, I feel so good writing that. Did I negate your +1?

(Sarcasm for those of you who miss it)

Orioles 1954-

I've changed my mind, I'm going with -2!

Think I'll focus now on acquiring cards, thanks for playing.

I think we are going on month 14 for our Swingin' 60's sub to PSA.

The official times is this sub was received in March 16th. It was officially logged in on May 4th. That doesn't take into effect the weeks that passed before it was even registered as being "received". Right now, we are in "GRADING".

But what does that have to do with Mickey D's wanting $2 up front?

If Mickey D gave food out before they received payment, no one would pay. Even the federal government learned that trick a long time ago.

I dont see ruth chris going broke and they dont take payment until meal totally over....a check at ruth chris unpaid would equal 300 or so McD orders ..

some of the biggest crooks in the world had 'money',

If speed, and lower prices has no net gain at the end of the transaction, what is the advantage?

I would guess everyone has different end games to why they choose different TPG or none at all. IMO if you want the max return on investment then PSA at this point is who you want, and you may have to wait for that, and pay more for that max return. I think it also matters what cards you collect as to which grader you want to use, as I'd imagine that also goes into another realm of AH for certain types of cards being sold. The options of multiple is a good thing for we can all achieve what our brains think is best.

I forgot to mention for me faster isn't always better neither is more expensive depending on the end result or gain.
