          Most SEOs these days don't believe that there is such a thing as a sandbox.  If these are new pages that are still not ranking well, then it may be that they need to attract some links.  Or it may be that they just need some time to reflect the link juice that they have.

          If these were pages that used to rank well but no longer rank then there are a few possibilities:

          1. Honeymoon phase.  Sometimes pages get a honeymoon boost and then settle into a normal ranking.

          2. Penguin.  If you were ranking on the power of an overoptimized link profile then you may have been affected by Penguin.

          3. Competitors are beating you.

          There are other possibilities as well.
