So how is he working on them if not?

So does that mean he took books with them, and is slowly mailing them back? Because that is not what we were told was happening before.

That's the thing. There isn't next time. Because people took advantage of it, they are now putting "No blank covers" on the announcement emails for upcoming signings. Of course you would be fine with waiting. If you get, lets go on the low end for a commission like this, $400, 2k worth of work, for $600, I would be happy to wait as well. Because we all know that 70%, minimally, of these blank covers are going to appear on ebay for $500+.

It is upsetting knowing what others are getting, and because others are getting what would be a much more costly, full sketch cover we are being left waiting with no info on when it is going to be completed.

I wasn't meaning right this minute. But in general. Keeping us up to speed should be a minimal thing. Even if there isn't any new info, to occasionally let us know what is going on. This whole thing has been very frustrating from our end.

@CGC Mike Would it be possible to just get a weekly "nothing new" update instead of us asking all the time?

Likewise. Mine moved there a couple days ago. I would expect yours to next week.

"Creator"

First Roy Thomas sub just shipped less than an hour ago!

Still waiting on mine. I am hopeful that they get there this week. Without pressing it seems likely!

Thank you @WDBill That is very much appreciated. It is frustrating when we pay all this money for these things, and they can't even give us a 5 word answer on what is going on, or when they think it will happen. Hell, even them saying that it was going to happen at NYCC would of been a perfectly acceptable answer. It's not the delays that upset myself and alot of others, things happen. It's the lack of communication.

Really anything would be better than the silence they gave us, until there was enough chatter from us. If this thread would not have gotten any traction I am quite certain they would of never said anything. All we want is some communication as to what is going on with this.

I am also curious on this. Any update?

What does "very soon" entail? The lack of communication and whole situation surrounding this is pretty worrying.

I have two SS orders for the clump of orders for NYCC signings. I realized I forgot to add pressing onto them. Normally I would just make a new order and have it done that way. However, both of them are remarques from people that are only doing a few, and that option is no longer available. Does anyone know, would I be able to call/email, or even just write on the invoice to add pressing on?

I am not seeing the option on the menu. It was only announced a few hours ago.

For sure, CGC5392961737 is the order number.4198213 is the submission number.

Hi there @NickiO CS I see that this made it into the system today. But I was also charged $80 for it for some reason. On top of that it was charged to a card that I no longer have on file with you. Both of these are quite concerning.

I had posted this in ask CGC originally, but then saw in this topic people having the same issues. I contacted CS, but was basically told to suck it. It has been a few weeks since I got my book back from the Rose Besch signing, and my book was heavily damaged during the process, including some pressable defects that were not there when I sent it in, and paid for the pressing. There is also a tear on the back cover now. I have photos from before the signing, and there was no tear, or damage where there is now. The signature and remarque are exactly where I cut windows for them, so I cant imagine it was taken out. I just kept getting told that the damage happened in transit, and that was that. It is kind of hard to imagine that somehow a tear like this happened in transit. Even if that were true, the pressable things should of come out during the press. The front damage is kinda hard to photograph, but very noticeable in person. What I assumed was a easy 9.6-9.8 is now an 8.0 due to negligence, and no one cares. I have several more books currently there for both SS and regular grading, and it has really shaken my confidence in CGC.

Hi there, I'm really not sure where to post this, in here, SS, General chat, wherever. I contacted CS, but was basically told to suck it.

I am looking at getting a number of books signed and graded and Megacon in April. I was hoping to be able to fill out a form before hand and have it ready to go before the show. I am not seeing an option for that, and was wondering if that is possible, or do I need to do everything there in person? I have about 20 books to get signed and graded so thought it would save time to have it ready to go before hand.

Is it not possible to submit two books, one remarque, and one regular signature for the same event together? Do I actually need to make two different orders?
