Welp..... 25 book modern prescreen 6/7 GEI 8/3 Shipped .......... 15 rejects out of a 25 book order WTF.....

HAHAHAHAAHA. 6/7 Prescreen still sitting in GEI.......... first in first out for the win!

That’s about accurate because 25 books in the same box of that order shipped 6/19 while the others are still sitting in GEI. All 50 shipped in the same box and received and GEI same time…… I called last Wednesday and was told the books were graded and currently in encapsulation. I don’t know what’s going on, but first in first out is most assuredly not true…….. I hope the prescreen pass rate isn’t terrible. I don’t mind waiting as long as the grades are accurate, but long waits coupled with poor QC and wild grades is a no go.

Yep my 25 book prescreen has been sitting in GEI since 6/7……..

It’s a little mind boggling. I sent in 2 25 book orders in the same box. 1 turned around quickly and was shipped on 6/19. The other hasn’t moved a bit. I may call them today just to make sure something isn’t lost….😔

25 book modern prescreen received 5/30 GEI 6/7 Still sitting……:.:🤷‍♂️

It’s an absolute coin flip. I had 2 25 books prescreen orders delivered 5/30 and went to GEI on 6/7. 1 order shipped 6/19 the other is still sitting in GEI….. it’s completely random doesn’t seem to have anything to do with first in first out.

It’s nuts honestly. I’m in the same boat. 2 modern prescreen orders both GEI 6/7 one shipped on 6/19 the other is still GEI. Even crazier is the one still in GEI showed up as received first…..😂 first in first out…..

Wellllllll..... my 6/7 GEI Prescreen still isn't moving....

WOW! Maybe there is hope for my 6/7 GEI after all this week.

You are 100% correct. You would think they would know that and try and clear out backlog before that point, but first in first out I guess.........

Hopefully GEI isn't a quagmire like it has been. My 25 modern prescreens that went GEI 6/7 are still sitting with no hope of release. Not worried or complaining yet as the 20 day plus 30 hasn't passed, but the other 25 sent in at the same time shipped out 6/19....... Doesn't make any sense.

I'm afraid GEI seems to be purgatory these days. Been sitting there since 6/7 on a modern prescreen.

Welp I guess I’ll celebrate the 4th this year in GEI…….. 😂

Unfortunantly once they get checked in it seems like a lottery if you are pushed through GEI quickly or stuck there for weeks.

No rhyme or reason..........

Is anyone seeing movement on prescreen moderns GEI 6/7 timeframe? Sent in 2 orders of 25 books both recieved and GEI on 6/7 the 2nd one has finished and shipped back a week and a half ago the first one that was recieved is still GEI? not even close to the stated TAT just seems weird the 2nd order is already done and returned and the first is still stuck in GEI. First in first out.......LOL

I’m convinced after all these years first in first out is a myth……

Maybe there is hope for my 6/7 GEI modern order soon..............

Wow! Thats crazy fast........

I might be dating myself a little with this question LOL but here goes. Back in the day (and I mean way back) Friday wasn't a "business day" during convention season. I've heard a ton of people over the years argue about that, but it was in fact true. I submitted a ton through a dealer friend for years and TAT was almost always spot on if you didn't count Fridays during con season. Between him, myself, and his customers it was ALWAYS the case. I wasn't sure if that was still true or since acquisitions, and tier changes etc.. that had changed. Just curious

Shipped 6/19

1 order of 25 QC 6/16.............. 11 rejects........... WTF?

Modern prescreen 2 orders 50 books Delivered 5/31 rec 6/7 sfg 6/7 gei 6/7

So from reading the last several pages of posts it looks like prescreen seems to be moving a bit faster, but I don’t see anything about consistency. Are prescreens fairly consistent on the grading or are they throwing out obvious 9.8 books? I’ve always thought that was a bit of an odd tier addition anyway as they have an incentive to hit the grade to charge more for the book. I haven’t submitted at all this year not due to TAT but the inconsistency in grading. Just wondering if prescreen was equalizing some of the consistency? thanks
