Books submitted to modern FT: Received 3/28 Verified 4/1 4/6-- Status unchanged and still at verified. Going on seven biz days. 4/9 -- Status unchanged and still at verified. Going on nine biz days. 4/10 -- Status updated-- scheduled for grading. 10 biz days 4/12 Status updated -- GRADED. 12 biz days Another status update-- Quality Control! Look at you, CGC! You're flying! You're still two days late. 4/15-- Still at QC. 13 biz days. 4/15 Still at QC. 15 biz days. Joke. Joke. Joke. Joke. Joke. So by adding new graders and an entire second shift staff, we've managed to...yes, get Fast Track submissions behind for the first time in the history of the company.

If you makes you feel any better all my Wizard World St. Louis WD & all the other books I subbed at the show are all stuck in Quality Control. I can only imagine that it is luck of the draw. What subs get pulled out of the box and put through the system first. Unfortunately it getting really frustrating. I too have Modern Fast Track subs stuck in Grading/ Quality Control that were subbed at WW StL. Those subs were not invoice dated till 3/27 ( the Wednesday after WW StL). I can understand that. It takes time to get them back to Florida. However, I'm now at 15 days for a Modern Fast Track. One more day and I'm basically (as well as everyone else) closer to paying the extra money to get books graded "on time". Considering Fast Track is further and further behind, I really see no relief in sight for improvement on regular submissions, which have become so far out I almost forget they exist. It's come to a point where the only way to get anything in any efficient manner is to pay extra for Fast Track or Express, which it seems more an more people are doing. In a sense the consumers have basically instituted a price increase on ourselves. we are paying a significant amount more for service. Bingo. This is what I predicted a long time ago.

What's that...a golden shower expo? You hush. I'll deal with you at Scatfest.

I'm just thankful I'm not on that cabals list I've seen a picture of you with Hugh Jackman. That was Hugh Jorgan, Not Jackman. It was Huge Jack Man. I'm having a replica of Phil's parking lot built at C2E2. You bring the sandpaper and I'll bring the clover honey I'm not coming to C2E2. I'm coming to Wiz World.

I'm just thankful I'm not on that cabals list Be afraid, the cabal approves of Hugh Jackman as Wolverine. I'm a closet Jack man fan Fixed that for you.

4 times now Did you spit this time? Yes TMI

I see you're doing exactly what you're accusing everyone else of doing by not ignoring me. Funny, that. PS, if you're reading this, you did it again. :shrug:

I figured it was coming, that's the only reason I started posting in it.

I say the mods need to resign and just let Cal and RMA moderate this place.

I've thrown up in mouth at least 3 times so far Did you spit it out, or swallow?

There's so much irony in this thread all the wrinkles disappeared from my clothes. It's like the train wreck that you just can't look away from.

I haven't posted in here yet.

If you makes you feel any better all my Wizard World St. Louis WD & all the other books I subbed at the show are all stuck in Quality Control. Better than stuck in Graded.

Uh... wut? No matter how slow, PGX cannot look better than CGC... For TNITK - CGC= professional company out of Sarasota, FL PGX= fly-by-night "company" out of some guys' moms garage. Seriously. -slym Yeah. If the option is selling raw or getting it slabbed by PGX, I'll take my chances raw. Buying OR selling.

I have to wonder how two eBay sellers have graded copies of the St Louis convention Walking Dead reprints in hand, and have been in hand for almost a week, yet my Modern FT submission sent on the same day is still probably two weeks from being in my hands. Were they really submitted on Walk Through, or is someone getting their stick greased?

But if you factor in the double turnaround times on FT, it all evens out to pathetic across the board.

I plan to use this thread if CGC ever ships my books back.

WTF happened to the times improving? Improving at the cost of shoving FT behind? Unbelievable.

That Eerie #1's gotta be a biotch though. Yeah, I'ma have to just go for 2 through 25.

I'm nowhere close to a run of Creepy. I have the first issue and some of my favorite covers. Most of the Frazettas. I've been trying to finish off the first 10 and go from there. Maybe the first 25 or so would be a good goal for me. The problem is, I'm trying to do the same with Eerie.

Modern FT day 11, still "Graded."
