SGC Delays

[UKCardGuy]

I made my first SGC submission at the National on July 28th. It was a "take home" submission with a 5-10 day service expectation.

After 2 weeks, the only update that I have is that they received my cards.

I contacted customer service and I was told that they're having delays due to the volumes from the National and moving into their new HQ.

Anyone else experiencing delays at SGC?

I can handle delays but it's not great having no feedback about how long the delay is.

I turned two cards in to SGC at National on 7/27 and they were graded yesterday. I’m got a shipping notice last night.

Thanks

Hi Gary (long time, no talk-

I'll come at this from another angle. I did not attend the National this time;
however, I did make a regular submission to SGC (less than 10 cards via
mailing), that happened to arrive at SGC the day before the National began.
I thought it would be an interesting test case, to see if my "normally
submitted" cards got a delay at SGC due to the National intake...

My SGC cards just arrived today. I shipped on July 20 and received on
August 12, a 22-day turnaround. My SGC submissions have consistently
been at a 17/18 day turnaround, so I basically saw a slowdown of 1 business
week. Personally I think that's pretty good, given the glut of cards they likely
took in when compared with the norm. I feared it would turn into a month
or longer delay, which I wouldn't have liked. All in all, not bad. I hope you
see a result next week.

23 cards submitted on 7/26 at the show. Still waiting at "received" status.

Thanks guys. Hopefully I see some progress next week.

My current submission (and first since 2019): Submitted 8/3, Received 8/8, Graded 8/17, and is now in post-grading processing. I was hoping the order would ship today, but I guess that didn't happen.

My submission has progressed to Graded now. I've been told it should ship on Tuesday.

Received 7/28, Graded 8/18

Its only a 7 card submission. I can't wait to see the grades.

Good luck with the results!

Just wondering...has anyone submitted items at the National and not received any communication at all yet?

I have them in hand today.

The cards look great in the SGC holders. Some of the grades seem a little harsh but reasonable.

I'm a little surprised by the grade on the 1932 Sanella Ruth though. The corners are sharp, the back is clean and there's no creases or surface damage that I can see. I was hoping for at least a 6.

Nice cards - congrats. They look great.

They all look great, especially those 55s!

Maybe its just my computer, but I feel like I see the slightest hint of a diamond cut. I may be wrong though.

No creases on Jackie or Ryan either? If not, those two and the Sanella Ruth make little sense.

My latest order -- Received 8/28, Graded 8/31, and shipped 9/5.

Edit: Received 9/7.

My pre-war were low end, I didn't expect anything but 1s, but a couple got 1.5 bumps for eye appeal, I suppose.

I wonder how grading at the National impacted return times (if at all).

[Yoda]

The grade on the Sanella Ruth is a travesty. 10 years ago it would have received at least a 7,

Submitting a small group today, will see if they stick to the 2 1/2 weeks turnaround. Prewar and vintage baseball primarily. Trent King

trent- they just dropped to $15 per card and are saying 5-10 day turnaround. interesting to see how that goes.

[brunswickreeves]

Currently SGC 1-2 business day turn around is actually 1 day for review and grading, and shipped next day.

Overall pleased with my order. I knew what I was getting for the most part, 2 surprises. One of my cards came back A minimum size not met. How do they measure these things now a days, machine?
