I received no response.

I now wonder whether this suspension by PSA doesn't offer an opportunity for SGC (or Beckett or someone else) to institute, or test out, such a service and thereby increase revenues or maybe even grab a portion of PSA's market share.
I believe that was the original point of Beckett Raw Card Review. Your card would get graded but not encapsulated and then for a couple of extra dollars it could go to the home office for the encapsulation. That way, you knew the grade of the card and if anything occurred everyone was on the same page.
