Is this a compliant or a just a statement? That sound like their fast track is still well on time. Fast Tracks are not on time anymore. They're taking ~15-20 days invoiced to shipped. It was a statement. However, as many of the posters are complaining about delays, I wanted to share my experience beginning with my submission on 11/7 as another example.

I just subbed my books via Fast Track (advice from this very post.. Thanks!) from the Long Beach Comic Con (11/3 - 11/4). They were received on 11/7. Spoke with Customer Service at CGC and she told me they would be graded within 10 to 15 days. Tick Tock

From Blue to Yellow This is my first attempt at a journal entry, but wanted to share my experience and photos for my Incredible Hulk 181. I first purchased my copy of Incredible Hulk 181 CGC 9.6 at SDCC in 2011. I was so excited about finally having a copy of my own. And it was my first CGC slabbed book. After purchasing it, I quickly ran to my computer and did what any one would do is check out CGC. To my surprise they were the #1 grading company for comic books and magazines. Immediately, I thought this was a great investment. After reading some entries online in the Signature Room, I thought it would be great to have some of people who had a hand in creating this book sign it. My first thought was Stan Lee. So, I met with Sharon and Chandler (Desert Wind) at my first Long Beach Convention in 2011. At this point, I was a little nervous handing my book over to someone I've never met, but they assured me they would handle everything as if it were there own. And they did. So, I got Stan Lee to sign my boo. And I totally love how HUGE the signature is. I don't think I've ever seen any book with a sig like that (for better or worse). After receiving Stan's signature on my book, I wanted to get another one. As luck would have it, Herb Trimpe was appearing at a comic book convention run by Terry in Jan 2012. Meeting Herb was awesome! He was great to talk to and was very accommodating to everyone waiting in line for his autograph. He even drew a little Wolverine sketch for me. Close up of sketch: As luck would have it, Len Wein will be at the Long Beach Comic Convention this November. I cannot wait to meet him and get him to sign my book. November can't come soon enough!

Simply Amazing!

Another shout out to Joel Elad for these lovely IMAGE EXPO GOODIES: And my first 9.9: Also, got these myself from WonderCon which just received their grades (sorry no pix at this time). I'm really looking forward to seeing them again.

Nice! I was thinking of doing the same thing. Did you get that case at IKEA?

Freshly graded by CGC: Aria 1 (Sketch Cover) 9.8 WHITE Michael Turner cover Aria 1 9.8 WHITE Aria Preview 1 9.6 WHITE Aria Blanc & Noir 1 (Dynamic Forces Edition) 9.6 Aria Blanc & Noir 1 9.8 Darkchylde 1/2 (Wizard Special Edition) 9.8 WHITE The Tenth 1 (American Entertainment Edition) 9.8 (1997) The Tenth 1 9.8 WHITE (1997) Witchblade 10 (Darkness #0 Gold Foil Variant) 9.8 WHITE 9.8 Witchblade 10 (Darkness #0 Variant Cover) 9.6 WHITE Darkness 1 (Platinum Edition) 9.6 WHITE Wolverine: The Origin 1 9.6 WHITE Alias 1 9.4 WHITE 9.4 Was hugely disappointed in the Wolvine Origin 1 and Alias 1. I thought these would get the 9.8 treatment.

Lotta money on that top shelf. (not to mention the shelf itself) Such a cool room Whats that urn? I mean I know what it is but where is it from? That is one AMAZING room!

Sorry about that guys.... I'll try not to let that happen again.

Fresh from CGC to my grubby little hands. My first CGC SS Submission via Desert Wind. Great way to cap off 2011 and a nice start to 2012!

Just received this bad boy from CGC via Desert Wind and I couldn't be happier. I've never seen a STAN LEE autograph on a book that big. I love it!
