  1. This one is now showing properly. Thanks for your patience! https://www.cgccomics.com/certlookup/0962663002/
  2. Hello @QuasarComics, This one has now been corrected. If this happens again for any other books, I created a new post and tagged it to the top of the ASK CGC board to post those cert numbers for review. Thanks again for your patience! Cert lookup https://www.cgccomics.com/certlookup/1258948016/
  3. @Snowdon Please add your Certification Number to this board for review by our IT team instead of creating a new post. Thanks for your understanding! Sorry for the confusion.
  4. Yes this policy is still in effect. Thanks for checking! @marf
  5. @BR0B0T These labels are swapped out after they have been in circulation for a full year. There is no set date they will expire but we will announce it ahead of time to give our customers a period to get the ones they want before they are gone. That said, be sure to not wait till the last chance/last call notification. In some cases, because of the large influx of submissions this causes, we may run out of a specific label type before receiving your order in-house. As for the new labels, our social media team may tease some labels before the official release, but I can not confirm that is a definite occurrence.
  6. Thanks for Reporting! Sending this submission to IT.
  7. Working on this one. I will let you know when this is fixed! Thanks for your patience!
  8. Hello All! I wanted to share with you some more information we recently found with our certification lookup tool. Our team has been made aware of several submissions/certification numbers that are not showing on the certification lookup tool. Our IT team is currently working to get this resolved. Once I have a confirmation of this I will let you know! In the meantime, if you have a certification number that is not showing in the cert lookup tool, please reply to this with the cert number. I will be reviewing each of these with IT so they can better diagnose the issue as needed. Thanks for your understanding! As always, if you have any additional questions, please be sure to create a new post under the ASK CGC board. Regards,
  9. Hello @QuasarComics, Thanks for contacting us! This is a glitch in our system. Our IT team is working to correct this error currently. This error affects several certification numbers on our census. I will be making a post at the top of the boards shortly for customers to report these certification numbers as well so we can get a record of all the numbers affected. Thanks for your patience.
  10. Hello @Stormtrooper_Pete, We have not changed anything noted on our submissions being returned to customers. That said, earlier this month we did share some more instructions on INTL Returns that you can review HERE. I would suggest reaching out to your local customs office for more information on this. I am sorry for the inconvenience.
  11. Hello @GS Williams, Good news! This order has now been completed and will be moving to shipping very shortly. Thank you for your patience on this order. It seems the majority of the timeline was spent in pressing. In some cases, multiple presses are required for books which does increase the timeline for them to be completed. Rest assured this will be back on it way to you shortly.
  12. Hello, You can find a dealer in your area who can submit this on your behalf HERE. Alternatively, you can submit to our UK office directly by following their steps to submit HERE. You can also contact them directly using the information below. Regards, +44 (0) 20 3968 3848 Service@CGCcomics.uk
  13. Hello @Shane Grubb, I have just sent these to you via email. For any future inquires on how to receive this information, please email us at submissions@cgccomics.com. Thanks all!
  14. Hello @Spazz1591 Yikes! I am sorry for the inconvenience! We should be able to reholder this book and keep the SS qualification. Please be sure NOT to remove the label. When submitting this through the reholder service, after completing the form, please write on the packing slip some more information on how it was damaged (in the move as you have done here) for our graders to review. If our graders determine the label was swapped or the book is not the same as listed we will contact you with more information via email.
  15. Hello, Please be sure when entering to put the correct date format instead of the full 4-digit year as seen below. This will allow you to locate this book on the submission form. Thanks for checking!
  16. Hello @awakeintheashes, Correct! Good eye! This is one of the exceptions to the rule. The reason for this is the Newsstand (and blank Newsstand) editions have covers made from a different lighter stock than the direct edition. While most Newsstand editions only have a newsstand UPC added, in this case, the paper stock is completely different warranting the variant. Thanks for checking!
  17. Hello @mg2row5, The online form is unable to display available grading credits or bill for submissions. The reason for this is we must verify what you stated you are sending in is what we received. You will receive your invoice number(s) when your order has been processed at the CGC office. No charges will be processed until your order is received in our facility. Any available member credits will be applied automatically before processing the charge. I am sorry for the confusion this has caused.
  18. Hello Jay, Thanks for contacting us! Each of these three submissions is still in line for grading. You can find our current estimated turnaround times for these submissions HERE. Your two Oldest submissions are nearing the end of this timeline so you should see an update on these very soon. As for the newest submission, this still has a bit to go for its estimated turnaround time. Rest assured once these make it to the front of the line you will see those statuses change pretty quickly. Thanks for your patience.
  19. Hello @colectorjg, You can track your submissions through the process HERE. We do not send email updates for each change of status, however. I am sorry for the confusion this may have caused. Please note, if these were done through the pressers account, you will not be able to access this submission tracking information. You will need to contact the presser in that case for more information on the status of those orders. Regards,

    Poster size

    Hello, Posters must fit within the following dimensions: 22.5" wide x 29.5" high. CGC currently accepts concert posters from some of the most highly coveted vintage poster series: Bill Graham, Bill Graham Presents, Family Dog, Grande Ballroom, Neon Rose, Art of Rock, New Fillmore Series, and Moonalice. We DO NOT accept other types of posters like video game, movie, or other posters for this service. Thanks for checking!
  21. Hello @kcm54, During the last month of your membership, you will receive an email regarding your renewal. At that time you can elect to upgrade or stay at the same level. Please note, at any time, upgrading from Premium to Elite, the full upgrade (minus a small discount for the unused months of membership) is due. Whether you upgrade now or at your expiration, the price will be roughly $280. The reason for this is that when you upgrade you receive a new expiration date to allow a full year of those benefits. Additionally, when you upgrade, you receive a NEW $150 credit to your account on top of the original discount. I hope this helps! Let us know if you have any other questions.
  22. Hello @gaston44, You can find the next time we will be in the NY area HERE accepting submissions. PLEASE NOTE since 2022 CGC Comics has not offered on-site grading at shows. Unfortunately, the resources, personnel, time, and frankly headache it takes to offer this opportunity for comic submissions is no longer something we offer. I am sorry for the inconvenience. If you would like to submit this to us, it would have to be through the mail, or by dropping it off at a show we are attending directly. I am sorry for the inconvenience. One other opportunity is you could work with a dealer in your area to drop the book off at our office directly. While this is not an offering for the public, our authorized dealers can drop off and pick up submissions at our office. You can find a dealer in your area HERE. Thanks for your understanding!
  23. Hello @batman_fan, Thank you for contacting us. All shipments are a direct signature required with restrictions that do not allow packages to be rerouted or the address changed once they have shipped. These restrictions are in place to protect the security of your returning collectibles and they cannot be removed or amended. However, you may change the address at any time prior to shipment with a written (email) request. Please note that updating your information on file does not change the shipping address of any orders already in process. A written request (email) is required to change the shipping address on orders in process. If a shipment is unable to be delivered after 3 delivery attempts, it will be returned to the sender. Once a shipment is returned to CGC and processed through our mail queue, we will contact you to confirm the shipping address and make the necessary reshipping arrangements. Changes to the shipping method and/or address are made by replying to the RETURNED SHIPMENT email notice directly. The RETURN SHIPMENT email will be sent to the account holder and the account holder must respond to that email directly to arrange any changes and re-delivery. Orders can be shipped to any address of your choosing; a place of business or directly to a FedEx location to be held for pickup.  (Note: FedEx has partnered with Walgreens to offer additional pickup locations. The address for the specific location is required). If you have any questions, please let us know. Thank you!
  24. Great question! Yes Newsstand Editions are not currently listed on our census separately. The reason for this is Newsstand Edition is a label designation added to the book and not its variant for the vast majority of books. There is only a handful of exceptions to this rule. Because of this not being listed as a variant all you will see listed on the submission tracking page is "collectors edition". Rest assured the Newsstand designation will be reviewed and added accordingly by our graders to the label. Thanks for checking!
