Is it just me or are the current PCGS turn-around times obscene?

    69 WORKING days for 'economy' world coins, 40 days for 'regular' world coins. Their 'target' times are 20-30 days, and 15 days respectively.

    So a person could not see their coins for the better part of four months.

    Anyone else find that to be a bit unsatisfactory?

    NGC looking better and better...

    I got 2 orders back from there in the past couple weeks. Both were sent regular service (15 day). The first came back in 30 days and had a mechanical error on 2 of the coins, so I had to send them back and wait another 8 days to have them back, so 38 days total. The second order took 32 days. Right now I have nothing there. My membership renews in a month, so I'll send off more then. Hopefully they'll be caught up. UGH!

    Most likely due to the recent CICF

    I figured we can make this a regular thread, where people report the time it takes to get their orders back. I just submitted the following:
    Economy order with variety attribution: Received 10/25, Graded 11/13, Shipped 11,/14.

    What is this CICF you speak of?

    Economy plus variety attribution in 13 business days is crazy fast! Time to submit, people!

    NGC also has been extremely slow lately. Got the grades from a friend of mine, but the coins still won't be back for two more weeks at least, or possibly more, and they were submitted in October.

    I'm just going to start a new thread on this to avoid confusion.

  11. The turn around time never bothered me, but then I live a turtle based life anyway.
