When I used to send often to PSA (before they jacked up the price and the turnaround time became 8 months +, It could take 3-4 months for me before my submission showed up on their website. One reason I haven't submitted in quite awhile

But you are speaking of the California office and most likely for grading or dual authentication. For just authentication when you send to the NJ office the wait is not that long.

The original post did not say who they were authenticated by. PSA will not classify and encapsulate an autographed photograph when the autograph has been authenticated by another company, i.e. JSA. You would have to have the autograph recertified by PSA. I have tried in person to no avail. I have a large collection of vintage (1930's - 1940's) snapshot autographed photos certified by JSA. PSA will not classify and encapsulate them as certified autographed photos without having the autographs authenticated by PSA, example attached.

I am fortunate in that I live about 2 miles from PSA NJ office. So I make appointments and drop off items for autograph authentication and pick them up when finished. I can drop off items to be authenticated and slabbed, process now about 3 weeks. But for many years was a week 10 days.
My comment to this thread is that my last submission it was about 2 weeks to log in. But the good news is that they were finished a week later. |

Just curious - when you submit a group of photos to PSA, how do you pack them? I have about 20 I want to have authenticated and slabbed, but I am not sure what the best way to pack them is.
Thanks Chris

I would place each one in an 8.5” x 11” poly sleeve and then place all 20 between 2 slightly larger pieces of cardboard and ship in a USPS medium long flat rate box.

Thanks Randy - that sounds like a good way to do it.

I pack them just like Randy stated in his response. The only difference is I place a sticker on each holder with as much information as I can. Usually just the name, era, etc. Totally not necessary but my train of thought is it might assist the person doing the research if they have a starting point. If it's a snapshot it might really assist - I don't know for sure - but maybe.
Attached are 2 of the photos that I just got back from PSA NJ. I'm very happy with the results, it's just the process. |
