Turnaround Much Quicker than Advertised

I've got a Standard order that is on its way back to me now, scheduled to be delivered tomorrow. It was only 5 cards and part of a larger order, but it's coming back much sooner than I had planned. Here's the journey that it took:

Received by CSG: 10/19/21
Scheduled for Grading: 10/19/21
Grading/Encapsulating/Imaging: 10/26/21
Quality Control/Finalized: 11/11/21
Shipped: 11/12/21

That's a total of 19 business days, when the current turnaround time is stated as 67 days. Super happy about that!

I just had an economy order that arrived to CSG on 10/28, received in their system on 11/1, went to Grading/Encapsulating/Imaging on 11/12, and as of yesterday 11/15 is in Grading/Quality Control.  If it ships this week it will be less than 3 weeks for turnaround for an economy submission.  The other order submitted in the same box is still in Scheduled for Grading phase but it had subgrades so hopefully it will be within 5 days or so of this one?

Is Grading/Quality Control the same status as Quality Control/Finalized?  Mine shows Grading/Quality Control but that status isn't listed on their explanations.

I believe Grading/Quality Control is the step right before Quality Control/Finalized.

Just got notice that my Economy order shipped - took just 24 business days!

Mine shipped yesterday.  18 days but they didn't grade 3 of my cards because they don't fit in their holder according to customer service.  Trying to find out more.

Shipped today 12/28. So assuming we count Friday 12/24 as a CSG holiday, turnaround time for a standard order was 16 days. Pleased with the results, too!
