- The displayed PSA actual average is 117 calendar days across 13 orders; some tier-level counts are much smaller.
Field notes
The comparison distinguishes graders’ posted estimates from calendar-day averages calculated from logged orders, measured from submission to completion. The paused PSA Value Bulk 65 (1980+) tier shows 140 days across six logged orders, while several active CGC and SGC tiers have no reports yet. Public Reddit/X figures are presented separately as submission-to-receipt times, not blended into the logged-order data.
