Opened Sep 15, 2026 from PSA's own domain. This is operational show logistics for collectors who can hand-deliver this week. It is not a fee change and not a repeat of The Philly Show coverage already on CGN (PSA at The Philly Show Sept 25-27).

Disclosure: Card Grading News is published by TCG Treasury LLC. CardGrade.io, which advertises on this site, is also a TCG Treasury LLC company.

September calendar context

Decision rule: Arrive early if you care about the published window. PSA's event pages say cutoff times are subject to change based on demand. These are drop-offs that leave with PSA, not same-day graded returns.

Bellevue and Seattle (Collector's Corner NW)

Primaries: PSA Bellevue / Collector's Corner NW event page and PSA Seattle event page.

The Bellevue page frames a Pokemon 30th Celebration with drop-off submissions, a Bellevue trade night at Hilton Bellevue on September 19 from 7 pm to 12 am, and the Seattle storefront window on September 19. Both Bellevue and Seattle pages mark No On-Site Grading and No Autograph Authentication for the submission line, while listing take-home categories that commonly include cards, tickets, sealed packs, comics/magazines, games/media, PSA Vault, and eBay consignment (confirm on the live event page before you travel).

New York: Yu-Gi-Oh! 30th anniversary drop-off

Primary: Celebrate 30 Years of Yu-Gi-Oh! with Drop-Off Submissions. PSA says it will accept take-home submissions at Nxt Legaci Gaming on Saturday, September 19, 2026, from 1:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. ET, with No On-Site Grading. The same page publishes separate signer pricing for voice actors Dan Green and Darren Dunstan; treat those as event add-ons, not grading fees.

What to bring / what not to expect

Across these three primaries, the shared grading message is take-home submission only. Do not plan for same-day slabs. Bring cards sleeved and listed the way PSA's current submission instructions require, plus ID and payment method PSA accepts on site. If you need Philly instead, that window is September 25-27 in Oaks, PA (already covered on CGN).

Bottom line

If you can hand-deliver this week, PSA's own pages put Collector's Corner NW Bellevue on September 18, Seattle on September 19, and the NYC Yu-Gi-Oh! drop-off on September 19. All three are take-home only. Re-check the linked PSA event page the morning you go; cutoffs can move.
