    Not sure that's applicable in this scenario. They aren't doing us a favor, or giving us anything. Business is business. Some of us are trying to make money, same as CGC. Same as people ripping me on eBay if something comes up and I don't make shipping times, product arrives damaged, etc. We aren't friends, we aren't doing favors, we aren't here to circle jerk each other. I'm here to pay for a service, they're here to render service. 

    I work almost non-stop, hardly sleep. My Fiance lost her job to her company crapping out in Co-vid. In addition to my small business I work full-time and hustle everything else on the side. I have a 4 1/2 y/o son that I do my best to provide for him and his mother. It's about money, plain and simple. Don't have time to deal with wildly_fanciful_statement like this tying up money. 

    I agree, it's not a free meal and you are paying for it....but it is their house. You're coming into their house (their site), sitting on their couch (their message boards) and complaining about their service.... I'm pretty sure that someone with CGC see these different topics and also the person that starts them.....it can't be good from a business standpoint when members are posting these topics on their site.

    Have you ever tried messaging PaulS. 

    He's a person that has always been willing to help me when I had questions.

    This is a forum not a review. We are all allowed our own opinion.  I did not bash or argue.  This is an open dialogue . An exchanging of thoughts. All wait times have increased significantly.  ( :gossip: it's even worse across the road) and even though anger does need to be dealt with, a public forum is not the place to do that.

    It is one of the misconceptions brought on by places like Instagram and Facebook where a lot feel it is ok to air their dirty laundry. This issue with this,  is that it truly serves no purpose, other than to draw in those who feed on these emotions. 

    Is it ok to be angry and frustrated?  Yes. Absolutely, but allowing this to propagate on a business site will not serve any good. Now if you want to leave a bad review that is completely your prerogative, but I would suggest that it is better done on one of the aforementioned social sites and not as a rant on the forum of a site we all chose to do business with as it will only lead to more issues. 

    Exactly, these bash discussions on a company (you're using) website are almost out of line. It's like inviting someone to eat dinner at your house and they turn around and complain about the service or food....it's just a bad look.

    I totally understand being angry.....just not the way it's being addressed.

    I try, but the same topic literally takes over the front page every time and there is no way to resolve your issue besides just asking for your cards back at this point. Like you could probably send them to another grading service but it'll take just as long to get them back, if not longer.

    I'm seriously sorry you are stuck in this predicament but no one can help you, especially if you're not willing to wait and see if the new building and employees can even make a difference.

    Totally agree, I'm a comics guy trying to learn something/anything from the cards discussions and all I ever see over here is guys complaining about not receiving their cards or their order hasn't been marked rec'd by cgc.....same discussion just worded different.

    Angel of death, ur jokes are not funny. U continue to be cgcs fire extinguisher. U know nothing is going correct so ur trying to belittle or make ppl feel wrong for the way they feel about their service. I wish we all had small brains, but sorry buddy when we feel things are wrong we speak up. I know u jus accept anything and everything thats done to u but not everyone is like that 

    Instead of complaining why not just simply use another company......that's what I would do. Why stay in a one sided relationship. You did say that "Psa slabs are still double what cgc is".

    I've never used them but seen all of their auctions etc. 

    The biggest issues with PWCC in my opinion are:
    - They list the same things ending at the same time (there could be 4 Charizard PSA 6's all ending within minutes of each other

    - They are HIGHLY targeted for shill bidding (running up boxes to 1.5million for boxes that should sell for $15k).  Again not personal experience but someone said when this occurred to them they went to the highest legit bid...well if shill bidding took place at 10k by two ppl I'd hate for my 15k to then be sold off at 10k.

    They always have a large offering of good stuff though!  So for the most part consignors must be happy with them.

    Just wondering myself if shill bidding is a common practice on trading cards....it's so obvious on ebay auctions. They really need to do something about that.
