  1. You will likely get a restored label C-1 but because this is such an awesome book I would still get it slabbed. I suggest a press will make it look better (won't remove the color breaks) and may get a 4.0 IMO.
  2. I would consider it as approximate and could change at any time. Also remember it is business days. My experience has been it has been close but Have only used Value Fast Track.
  3. While this is related to slabbing not pressing, it still may be of interest. This discusses the size maximums CGC slabs
  4. Thanks for confirmation. I have been sending in Books regularly since October 2020 and they have consistently "been 2 weeks behind" in opening during that period of time. I suggest that this 2 week timeframe from "delivery" to CGC and seeing the books show up in system as "received" is likely the norm at least for the foreseeable future regardless if sent UPS/USPS/Fedex.
  5. Hi: My understanding from reading several posts by CGC (in the ask CGC forum) is that CGC has their own Post Office Annex. Therefore when a box is "Delivered to Post Office" CGC has it and is placed in their vault. They normally take approximately 2 weeks to open the box and enter into the CGC system as "received" status (unless Walkthru/Express). They open the received boxes in order (sorta of) they were delivered. I think opening time period is the same whether sent UPS/USPS/Fedex. Hope this helps.
  6. This is a very nice book. I wouldn't be surprised if CGC doesn't hammer because of the back stain and bring it down to 5.0.
