  1. It might might possibly maybe kinda depend on which grader(s) you get. I've often wondered if CGC can tell, via the certification number, who graded which slab (any slab ... could've been graded yesterday, could've been graded 10 years ago)
  2. Third time's the charm ... or something like that. Walgreens had it today.
  3. What's the average wait times these days between when your package is delivered and when it's opened?
  4. Tomorrow will be the third attempt (that's their limit before sending it back, right?), so fingers are crossed. I did try to call their customer service, but all computer carp.
  5. Nope. Not there. But I did pick up some Burger King, so it wasn't a total wasted trip.
  6. I'm going to run down to Walgreen and see if it's there. Something fishy is going on. I checked 'detailed tracking' and saw this...
  7. Just got this email a few minutes ago... Walgreen is open right now, and I have been sitting 5 feet from my front door all morning.
  8. It was redirected to Walgreen as soon as I got the email that Clink had shipped it...Thursday. And then FedEx sent me an email confirming that.
  9. One of my comic buying bugaboos... If a buyer gets a negative for the same infraction as a previous negative outlined, he doesn't get my business. Everyone makes mistakes. People who refuse to learn from them give me pause.
  10. I've been on a sci-fi kick lately. It's been a strange adventure.
  11. I'd be curious to know if this was the case for @CGC Mike when he looked at the video.
  12. Personally, I wouldn't want any credit. It's my money and I'll spend it any way I choose!
  13. Anyone have experience with this? I'm sure it's nothing too concerning, but have no experience with it. Yesterday, at 8:26 am, I received this e-mail... Then, at 11:27 am, I received this one...
  14. agreed, but not surprised @Ghostzapper - Happy for you. Though the process was unnecessarily difficult, the outcome was a positive one. I truly hope they don't try to weasel out of the max compensation for your book ... they've done enough. I work for people whose first response to anything bad happening is "Who did it?", so I've learned how important it is to document everything. Sadly, it's a finger-ponting society we live in. It was disappointing (but again not surprising) that they at first blamed you and didn't even acknowledge that they might've made a mistake. Kudos to you for sticking to your guns and not accepting them not accepting fault. I want to agree with others that it is very sad that @CGC Mike had to get involved and that his involvement was probably why this outcome happened. The members on these chat boards constitute a very, very small percentage of CGC's customers ... who would've been SOL. That's sad ... and kinda makes me angry. One more thing (and this might be construed as me backtracking), but how did the video reviewer determine that a magazine was inside? Especially after the receiver (who had the box right in front of him) didn't? Did he see it? Obviously not, or the receiver would've seen it. I kinda understand now the legalities for not supplying you the video, but can they at least tell you exactly what it shows? Again, happy for you. If continuing to use CGC's services makes you happy, please do so. But if this ordeal puts you off from using them again, I don't think anyone (including CGC) would blame you.
  15. Don't understand. There's a question as to whether or not it's yours?
  16. Person A: "CGC denies losing my magazine worth $4000." Person B: "Ask them to send you the video." Person A: "They said they can't." Person B:
