I'm glad @0gretro asked this, as I had the same question.  And thanks to @CrystalM CS for the response! 

And it makes sense.  You wouldn't want to apply the credit to a order if for some reason the customer didn't end up sending the game in after all.  This keeps things simpler. 

I imagine the first time we'll see if it's applied is when the credit card gets charged then?

@Holku , @WorldFury85 , well mine finally arrived today! 

Would I have liked a higher grade?  Oh sure.  But it's fair, and really, how many sealed copies of this can be left out there anyways? 

I'm super excited to have this displayed in my collection now.   😁

Hey guys!  I just noticed my status changed on Friday and that my game has been shipped!  I should have it very soon. (Maybe even tomorrow.)

It's only got a 7.0 grading, but hey, that's fair.  It's 40 years old, after all! 

I'll share pictures of it here when I get it, if you guys are interested. 

This is my first time getting anything graded.  I certainly have more video game treasures in my collection, so probably not the last.

SHIPPED!!!!!!!!

SO EXCITED TO GET THEM AND SEE THE GRADES!

Its going to take all of my willpower not to check the grades online, but I will share after I get them.

Congrats! 🎉 Exciting news.
I'm getting a bit jelly now, guys. 😅

Ah, but I can be patient.  So it's all good.
Never realized that I could find out the grades before receiving them till I read this thread though.  Yeah, that will be a real test of willpower.

UPDATE!

Status says Shipped and I can see my grades!! Attached are a couple of screen shots.  😀

Wow, very nice grades indeed!  👍

Nice!! Seen my status now says -- Quality Control/Finalized --

Ooooh that's pretty cool.
I'm still in the "Grading/Encapsulation/Imaging" status also. 

I only submitted one game, a sealed copy of Joust for the Atari 2600.   Not expecting a super high grade on it, but there can't be too many sealed copies of that game left floating around and it's going to look great on display in my collection.

 Unfortunately, we ran into a few delays in the procurement of some shipping supplies which has caused a delay.  As soon as we can begin shipping again, this will be moved through the system. We are planning on receiving the needed part in the next few days so this should be on its way back to you shortly. Thank you for your patience. You will receive an email once this has shipped. Once again, I am sorry for the delay. If you have any other questions, feel free to let me know. 

Thank you for the update! 👍

Yeah, CGC received my game on October 17th.  I haven’t heard anything back yet as of December 8th.  Far beyond the 30 day turn around time mentioned, but hopefully I’ll get it back some day.
