The future of the PSA set registry

As long as it doesn't still take 45 seconds to load the population pages every time...

Yes, new set registries have been closed for a while now. In the interview he mentioned that there is one lady that handles all of the registry creation and she has to input everything manually. So big opportunity there and he commented on some of what they are considering as improvements.

One other notable item that I probably should have posted in the original message. They are now scanning all cards and going to start 3-D printing the slab insert. This should improve the slab aesthetics as it sounds like this will allow them to get rid of the mylar inserts which are included to protect the cards and prevent them from moving around in the slab. Should be good for vintage slabs since there are a lot of cards that aren't a standard size.

Sure hope this new feature doesn't result in a new bottleneck in their operation.

Or an added potential for damaging the card if the new insert is accidentally too small to actually fit the card.

For what it�s worth they created the 1927 Yankees World Series ticket registry when I requested about 6 months ago. That said, 4 tickets is not a huge lift and seemed odd it was not already created.
