Yup they have really slowed since Nov, which is probably due to more non-US collectors using the service which is great but is slowing down the processing. Another thing NEVER and I mean NEVER submit to Beckett through them. They charge like a wounded bull $20usd 1 card 45 day turnaround!! Extortion..alas I did it hence how I know but it was a Star co 5x7 card so didn't want it doing half the globe and back not as well protected as i would like to save a few bucks.
Overall, great for us who live here or anywhere far from the US but some things to keep in mind:
Processing fees: 1-4 cards $2 us, each thereafter is 50c per card.
Time: generally 2+ weeks for card to be processed (keep this in mind before leaving ebay feedback in case your card is /got damaged)
Postage: Seems USPS are on a similar price hike as oz post... actually that's not true. But in any event costs have risen. Delivery time depending on which option you use and which side of oz you live can really vary (generally on account of oz post to be fair) i live on the left hand side so things take forever coming from Melb/Syd to Perth.
But... still much better than paying ebay global shipping fees especially for cheaper cards.

Main thing... be patient before shipping. It is the same price pretty much to ship 10 cards or 60 so I usually try to hold off until I have a good bundle (frustrating but gotta be smart with our piss weak buck!)

The mailbox service is great for US ebay purchases and you can bank a stack of cards to send back when you are ready, I normally wait till I have about 40 till I send home unless its something special and it normally runs me about $20USD
