Oh geez, that's pretty in depth. I was under the impression that Disney had everything except Spider-man, Fantastic Four, and X-men. I never really considered how all the individual characters affect that. Sheesh, I just hope they figure this out soon. Fantastic Four and Daredevil need to be remade to save those franchises in my opinion. Affleck ruined Daredevil and especially Bullseye, FF was average at best.

Great seller! Shipping was fantastic! Highly recommended!!! Thanks!!!!

Fantastic to work with. Communication is top notch. Will definetly do business with him again! Thanks Trevor!!!

I'm just hoping improvement in CGC times is lasting and not just temporary. Obviously the amount of books being submitted won't decrease so CGC employees has to increase.

I know what you mean by "allowed." Had to make a deal with the wife, When we get a house with 4 rooms or 3 and a nice basement I get to have my Man Cave. As of right now I'm just waiting....

Saw this in person. Just...amazing. A great mystery as to how Marvel or DC didn't pick you up yet. I got a sketch cover (well 2) and the sketchbook. Fantastic stuff!

Careful everyone. There are some hardcore cgc apologists here and if you express anything less than worship for CGC, they'll jump on ya. tread lightly

Let me guess - you were just as "friendly" over the phone as you were in this post, right? Btw, tone/mood cannot be interpreted over text, at least not without exclamation points or caps lock. Therefore your comment is ridiculous as it is impossible for you to interpret my "written voice" but thanks for playing. right on Stanley1883, Msschmidt sounds dooshy in protecting CGC even though you paid for a service and did receive it.... Imagine if companies like McDonalds, or Starbucks, or Movie Theatres pulled this... we would not be backing them,,,, Your right we still back the companies but we don't have to smile about it. As far as me paying for the service and receiving it, that still remains to be seen. Technically, I paid for a 10 day turnaround time as that's what they quote, now if it take's considerably longer, the argument can be made that I did not receive what I paid for. Consider your McDonalds analogy, if you order and pay for a Big Mac and receive a Cheeseburger, did you get what you paid for? Same principle, I paid more for extra and in my case the extra is speed, if I don't receive the "extra" why should I have to pay the "extra" price? Again, let me disclaim that at the time of this post, my order is NOT late and my conversation is based on the hypothetical situation of my order actually being late. Please note the "if" and "remains to be seen" usage. Nowhere did I say (or cry) about my order being late.

Let me guess - you were just as "friendly" over the phone as you were in this post, right? Actually I was because I'm not going to give them the excuse of reacting to my tone. So in a word, yes, I was very friendly because I wanted to see how they would genuinely react. I understand and accept waiting, I don't accept them quoting it at 10 business days, taking double or triple that time (or more) and not refunding or crediting you the money paid to "rush" the order. And the icing is their nonchalant "sucks for you" attitude they take when the customer calls.

Modern FT received 4/23. They havent even looked at them yet and once again "great" customer service. She sounded like I was bothering her and again had the "deal with it" attitude. And queue the CGC apologist to now post how we are being unreasonable and should thank the gods that we are even allowed to submit items to CGC.....

So then basically, I can expect my 4 Fast Tracks to be delayed? 3 Modern FT, 1 Standard. Techinically 3 FT I guess. Here lets start a pool, Submitted 3 comics 2 Modern FT 1 Standard to the Frank & Sons show. Comics have been sent to CGC, will arrive Monday (4/22) at the latest if they havent arrived yet. Guesses for when they arrive anyone?

After you get berated for the 100,000th time regarding TAT's that you have no control over, how much empathy would you have? Honestly, thats not my problem. then find another job. It's ok for them to be jaded? I understand that there are unreasonable peopl out there who probably flip out for no reason, but that doesn't mean they should treat everyone the same. If i'm paying you for a job, then do your job, don't act like a jerk because the 5 people before me were jerks. Like I said, I'd just like to sense that they care, maybe then the long delay's wouldn't be so bad.

Well my CS experience has been subpar. They aren't "bad" by any means, I just always get a "eh, so what" vibe. I guess all I'm saying is they could use some more empathy. So maybe it wasn't fair to say they don't have CS, but they sure aren't empathetic. Nobody else get that vibe?

That is pretty scary, I mean you pay the extra cash for FT and it doesn't even matter. I totally agree about the grader notes too. Problem is it would take massive cooperation to get them to change, they're always going to be somewhat PC and say times are improving and we hired more graders. If we as the consumer went to PGX by the hundreds then maybe something would happen. Slym was right, they pretty much have the market cornered. PGX has what, 10% of of graded books. Of course I have no data and that's my guess, but I'll see tons of CGC slabs before I see a single PGX. They will never change until the consumers force them to, and the more we complain about times, they will hire more people and jack up prices to pay for them. Even Classics incorporated jacked up the price when CGC bought them out. What can we do? They're running a business sure, and they are there to make a profit, but like some of you said, it's all greed and there's something to be said about Customer Service, which they lack.....

Have a Stan Lee economy sent in late Jan. As of April 17, it's been graded and awaiting encapsulation and QC. They said about 4-5 more weeks!!! Ugh, cant get grade either. I love waiting on books but hate the anxiety!

Bought key Spider-man issue. Great condition, fantastic shipping. Jer has excellent pricing. Transaction was seamless. Top notch!!!! Great communication and and honest seller. (thumbs u

Does anyone know the current turnaround time on Stan Lee SS Economy? Is it the same as regular Economy? I made the mistake of not fast tracking it, all I know is that they received it and "verified" it almost a month ago. What exactly does "verified" mean, and apparently it just sits around for a month or 3 before it's graded.
