Increased to $50/card, but at least they reduced the turnaround time from 75 days to 40 days. What's crazy is that SGC only graded 42K cards last month, so not sure how they can justify increasing prices? They should have no problem increasing TA time, but prices? Cmon! 42K/month is only 1,400 cards a day. If a grader spent 1 minute per card that would be only require 3 full time graders to grade that volume of cards! Literally thats all it takes, WTF!

I hit my local card shop today and made a few small trades and picked up this bad boy.

How is this even possible and how does it keep getting worse! From 45 to 75 business days! Thats 105 actual days or 4 months (more than any sport offseason)!

Anyone surprised that SGC value bulk still open after the latest BGS value bulk shutdown? Based on Gem Rate's total monthly graded cards, in July 2026 BGS graded 161K cards and SGC only graded 44K cards. So, is it possible that Collectors Inc. wants SGC to take over value bulk? Do they end up making SGC the value bulk option, BGS the mid tier option, and PSA the high tier option? Time will tell! What are your thoughts? Or is this just dreaming at this point haha.
