I am not sure if PGCS is open or not. On March 17, 2020 I got an e-mail saying that they had closed due to COVID-19. The next day March 18, 2020 I received another E-mail which stated they were open again.
March 17, 2020
Dear Valued Customer,
Late today, in an effort to slow the spread of COVID-19, Orange County, California issued an emergency order declaring nonessential businesses that operate within the county to close, effective immediately, through March 31, 2020.
As such, Collectors Universe and its Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS) and Professional Sports Authenticator (PSA) divisions are temporarily ceasing operations.
Non-local business units, such as PCGS Hong Kong, PCGS Shanghai, PSA New Jersey and PSA Tokyo, will remain open. Certified Coin Exchange (CCE) and Long Beach Expo operations will also remain operational.
Customers are asked to not ship submissions to our California office until operations are reopened. If you have an inbound shipment to Collectors Universe, it will be received and securely stored at our facility.
The situation is fluid and we’ll continue to keep our customers updated regarding the availability of our services.
We know this is a period of great uncertainty and we remain committed to providing world class services as soon as possible.
Sincerely,
Joe Orlando
Brett Charville
CEO, Collectors Universe
President, PCGS
MARCH 18, 2020 UPDATE
Orange County has clarified its emergency order and is now allowing businesses, including Collectors Universe, to resume operations. As a result, Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS) and Professional Sports Authenticator (PSA) will resume operations, effective immediately.
As evident by the multiple policy changes, the situation remains extremely fluid. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we navigate this ordeal. Ultimately, we are committed to both the health and safety of our employees and the delivery of our services to our loyal customers.
Sincerely,
Brett Charville
President, PCGS
Thanks
