  1. You are not alone. I called at lunch and got no real definitive answer on how this happened. Just a line about how the graders must have wanted "a little more time" with the other books & they're still within the listed allotted turnaround time.
  2. Same boat. The batch I sent in first (three weeks before 2nd batch), has been stuck in SFG for 2 weeks. The 2nd batch came over from CCS on Monday (7/6), hit SFG yesterday and G/QC today. They'll be home first, it looks like. All the while the first batch sits, waiting...
  3. So, finally got charged for the books. But they're still sitting as SFG (6 business days now). Anyone else been waiting this long to see them switch to G/QC? Patience really is a virtue...
  4. Appreciate it, man. This is the first time I've sent books in on my own and not through my LCS.
  5. Books made it back from CCS on 6/23 and went to SFG on 6/25! So, they're moving faster than expected! Question though. I've not been charged for CGC services yet. Don't they normally charge when books go into SFG? Can't wait to see how these books grade out.
  6. Modern received 4/13/20 for press and grade, non-fast track. Figuring they'll be back just before Labor Day, considering all the signings coming up don't slow down the process even more.
  7. Mark Jewelers Variant. https://on-comics-ground.com/2018/07/05/discussing-variants-part-1/
  8. Only sent one. Sign, press, grade. So anxious to see what my MJV Hulk 340 comes back as.
  9. Why would they reuse the old number on the new slab listed on eBay?
  10. Fair point. At the end of the day, CGC just needs more graders. Even when paying for expedited services, takes way too long.
  11. A second location could house more graders,etc. therefore cutting down turnaround time. Maybe a west coast division that handles everything Texas and westward and Florida could handle east of Texas. Get those books back faster!
  12. Yah. Super-jealous! I'd say 1.8, maybe a 2.0.
  13. Check out my Hulk 340 Mark Jewelers Variant. Please note, it's hard to tell from the pics, but there is a faint fold in the "K" on the front cover that looks to be from manufacturer. Also, very faint rust on bottom staple. Would the MJV help in offsetting these flaws when it comes to grading? Page color is white and corners are in good shape. Feedback would be greatly appreciated!
  14. Sourced raw from a private collector that I've been buying off for years. 99% of his collection is newsstand he purchased off the spinner rack himself. Needless to say, was beyond happy when this came back.
  15. Have 3 books with CCS for pressing that were sent in early March. Still there. Seems like they'll never travel over for grading. Everything else that was sent in March was back late May (no pressing needed). I'm thinking, at this point, that my submissions in late July will be back before the ones sent for pressing.
  16. Interested to know if anyone has, or has encountered, a Mark Jewelers variant of Amazing Spider-Man 252. Especially since CGC only notes MJ insert on label and not in the census. Also, would it be considered as rare (or more so) as the Canadian price variant?
