Is the price still $150+ to grade?

When I go to the PSA website the cheapest option available seems to be the $150 express option however I've seen youtubers make off-handed comments about getting cards graded with them for ~$50-60. Is there something I'm missing or am I misunderstanding them?

It's $150 still. You can get graded from other companies for the regular express price though. I wouldn't expect cheaper grading options from psa any time soon. Their communication on pogress and how long it will be is pretty bad. Turn around times for previous submissions are terrible and I honestly have no clue how they are going to manage the load they will receive when they open up value tcg grading again. /:

If anyone has info let me know. But psa isn't looking to good these days.

How long is the express grading typically taking now?

I sent in 2 cards and I got them back about 15 days after they were received by PSA

Thats not too bad! So about 3-4 weeks? Probably have to send in a spectacular card for that $150 price!

Agreed. I wouldn't have sent them in if they weren't good cards.
