Well, that's not all that bad based on the TATs back then? Up until extremely recently it was perpetually floating in the 250-260 quoted TAT. 260 business days is 52 weeks give or take for holidays, and 52/weeks per year so sounds like they're still on track, eh?

What tier?

Hey all! Heck froze over and my Standard Submission is supposed to be delivered to me today! 15 copies of Raphael #1! They did slightly better than anticipated over all! 2 9.0s, 10 9.2s, 2 9.4s, and 1 9.6!

Standard since Dec. myself..

I wouldn't say they shouldn't accept new orders, but they definitely shouldn't cut the TATs like they have until they're caught up imo.

Would reckon so? What was the difference before?

I have a standard submission stuck in GEI limbo as well.. 15 books.. called customer service and they said they were graded on March 30th... but haven't been slabbed yet.. kinda BS/bordering in crookery to lower the TAT when books thatve been there, and are past the previously quoted times, are stuck...

Could you rephrase/elaborate? I'm having trouble following.. Yes though it does suck , my standard tier that I paid more than 750 extra for somehow is further behind in the process than my modern tier... like w..t..literal...f....

Damnnn... whack... What day were they received into their system? Idk if you've been in contact much with CGC, but I would get on their and request a refund, at least partial.

My two submissions finally both hit g.e.i.. 1 has 15 copies of rafael number one Microsoft series from 1985 and the other has 14 copies I'm chomping at the bit To get them back lol

Did you get the grades you were hoping for?

What tier did you use? What day did they arrive? Curious so I can compare to mine haha

Congrats! May I ask what was in the shipment??

Does that mean grading has resumed on magazines??

Eh, just like with comics, a game can come straight off the conveyer belt freshly made and be sent in immediately and still not get a 9.8. Have you done a lot of research on all the nitpicky subtle nuances that make up the minor differences? I have with comics, but idk in regards to games just yet.. however after a dozen or so submissions I no longer allow myself to be disillusioned as to think any book, or other graded item, will come back 9.8 or higher. Aside from the objective qualifications for the grade, sad to say but it really could boil down to someone having not gotten laid the night before, perhaps they suck at that game and everyone on discord made fun of em so boom automatic point deduction.. while mess like that isn't SUPPOSED to happen, they are just humans after all, any little thing can alter their perception that day..
