Sent in my comics to be PRESSED and GRADED on 9/20/2021. Just acknowledged they had been put on the Grading queue yesterday (8/9/2022). Yes, my fellow Masochists … It looks like we may have finally reached 2 YEAR territory for turnaround!

I just called in today about a CCS pressing and CGC combo received 6/3/2021 … I was told current turnaround time is approximately 445 business days. There are 260 working days in 2022, so a CCS pressing and CGC combo received 6/3/2021 is apparently looking at a 2023 return. OMG! Good luck with later submissions.

I'm in!

Anyone else having this issue? I sent off some comics to get pressed and graded in May of 2021. CGC acknowledges that they received my submission on June 3, 2021. I've called a number of times through the last few months and each time received the same retort "WE APOLOGIZE FOR THE DELAY. WE'LL GET AROUND TO PROCESSING IT SOON". 

Well, I just called today (officially 7 months and 3 days since they received my submission and I GOT THE EXACT SAME RETORT!!! The comics haven't even been PRESSED YET! Is this not outrageous? Is there anything I can do to light a fire under someone's REAR END and wake them up??? Jiminy Christmas guys!

So does anyone have a solution for me? I submitted to Razor no. 1 to CGC to be graded. It came back with the following notes "light bends to cover" usually reserved for a 9.2 or 9.4 grade. However, it was graded as 8.5 due to NAME WRITTEN ON COVER IN MARKER. This was a bagged copy of RAZOR #1 with a COA as 500/3000 signed copies by Everett Hartsoe. Okay, I get that CGC does not verify signatures but why does that mean that signatures are severely penalized in grading??? So now I have a misgraded rare comic with a COA in an accompanied bag. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
