I'm the biggest supperter of Talmer, no doubt. Read this thread and the one before it for proof. He proved himself to be a standup guy in his long tenure here....that's why I trusted him with close to $1000 of my cards.

Things went awry and that is his fault for lack of communication. Plain and simple.

He got crucified here, that is plain to see. By many folks. And I'd say justifiably so based on his actions.

I have reserved judgement.

However, I find it amusing that, now that it looks like things are going to be OK, the Talmer supporters are coming out of the woodwork. Where were all of you went things weren't looking so rosy? It must be nice to sit and judge from afar when you have nothing at stake....

Sorry, standup guy in my book is not a person that still has yet to post regarding this situation and has taken the route of communicating through someone else after numerous attempts to get a hold of him went unanswered. While it is understandable that he had family issues to deal with and the submission is still taking place, I find it hard to believe anyone involved in this would consider the guy to be "standup" any longer.

So you find it amusing people didn't support him when he was clearly wrong for not keeping the group updated with the situation? While I am sure everyone is happy the submission is moving forward, I highly doubt anyone involved would consider the situation ROSY. Just because you chose to support him based on past dealings doesn't mean that YOU were correct and everyone else was wrong. Anyone who passed judgement before the facts were basing it on HIS actions or in this case, no actions. So I find it amusing you are pumping your chest as a supporter when you really had no business supporting him because he was WRONG in this case.

I've been here the entire time....still don't like the way it went down, but still feel everyone will get their stuff.

As I said many times, I never thought Talmer was trying to rip people off, but rather things spiraled out of control and he no longer tried to or cared about taking care of it. There wasn't anything else to think based off communication falling off a cliff and then getting ignored for a month+. This could have been handled very easily on his part, and he chose not to.

Its beating a dead horse......everyone has agreed to this.

Does anyone know if PSA updates their pop report when they do finish grading an order? I have no idea if this ended up being a guaranteed 45 day order or if it went through some special that didn't guarantee a pop date

nothing is guaranteed, 45 days is the target

Is that a PSA rule or just the type of submission this went in as? Just because I know BGS guarantees them if it's not a bulk order

there are no guarantees, its typically done by the 45th business day for bulk orders.

PSA does not guarantee the 30 or 45 days grading specials. Grading special orders can be bumped in favor of full price orders that are date specific.

I will be calling PSA this afternoon.

Today is day 46, not complete. She said many of the holiday orders were delayed. She asked me to call back tomorrow afternoon to check. She is sending them a note to ask it to be completed ASAP.
