    Any update on how long it took for yours to move to shipped? Mine FINALLY moved to Quality Control today after being in Grading/Encapsulation/Imaging for almost 2 months

    Yep, just noticed that on two of my active orders too, just happened this afternoon and came here to see if it happened to anyone else haha. Guessing they must be doing something with their servers.

    Needless to say I was surprised it received a numeric grade. I was just hoping it would get authenticated and put in a holder. That said, the more I thought about it, the main reason we need an "Authentic Altered" grade is to notify the holder/future buyer that there was an alteration to the card, and most of the time that's going to be something someone did to the card to make it look better (trimming, recoloring, etc) that might not be noticeable. In this case someone did something to the card that made it look worse that is definitely noticeable. In that way it's not much different than grading a card that has a mark or missing paper, I guess. Maybe a special nuanced case, or maybe just caught a generous grader on the right day haha.

    Since I never got a reply I ended up going a different route (glad I did)

    Hi! Has this been updated? Will CSG now encapsulate Authentic Altered cards, or are we still waiting on that? Thank you!

    Hi! I have a 1952 Topps Jackie Robinson that I'd like to get authenticated. It is clearly altered, as you can see in the photo attached: one corner being either damaged by a screw-down, or maybe even erased, and then it appears someone traced some the borders (crudely and obviously) that were damaged in pen. Obviously it would not receive a numbered grade. My question is whether CSG has an "Authentic Altered" designation, that it can receive without a number grade and still be encapsulated, as some other grading companies do. I wanted to check before sending it in. Thanks!
