  1. My Mirage TMNT submissions are Finally shipped, shipped Friday. For reference they went on SFG 3/23. they were signed during the first batch at CGC, so they didnt have to go through the shipping process to and from Kevin, like alot of the others. Iam praying for the rest of you now, I seriously thought mine were going to be the last ones.

    My book finally made its way home. Happy about the 9.8 and Bishop remark but the Eastman remark is a little blah…but the extremely frustrating thing is that after waiting all this time my case came damaged. The left side of the case is not sealed. Also, as you can kind of see in the second pic, it had a bunch of scratches. Now I have to go through the trouble of getting this fixed smh! :frustrated:

    Dude mine came back looking like mess as well, he used some lame baby blue colored pen and its literally the worst case ive ever seen. Its thin and flimsy, the yellow label at the top isnt centered, its smushed at the top and the 'CGC Signature Series" part is un readable, its wavy and not pressed firm against the case. Iam just NOT happy at all with this, to the point that my last submissions went to CBCS, Iam literally DONE with CGC.

    I did not. Everything was regular and I paid no fast track on anything. 

    Sweet, thanks for the reply. It seems they are finally getting out the last of the signing with the Mirage Edition Magazine sized ones. As of now(to my knowledge) Fugitoids and Original Mirage TMNT are what most people are waiting on, so you getting yours is a good sign.

    Got my Last Ronin #1 and Fugitoid #1 back but they were damaged in shipping. Both top left edges were cracked and it was obvious to see on the box. I've since worked with CGC and they're fixing them now and will send back hopefully by this week. The Last Ronin #1 is a Cover B and is 9.8 and the Fugitoid #1 is a 9.4

    Did you pay for fast track? I havnt heard about anyone getting a Mirage Edition Magazine back as of yet, just Last Ronins, so you might be one of the first.

    My TMNT #1 is also SFG, and I have not seen any mag sized issues shown off on other sites (It is all Last Ronin or regular comic sized mirage books). I'm also have a sneaking suspicion the remarque won't be anything like what was originally previewed (: (though to be fair I pretty much assumed this would be the case, but still hope to be surprised)

    Ya I paid for the remarque to, bet it sucks....he probably had to do 5,000 of them. XD

    My Last Ronin #1 Santolouco variant just shipped out today with a 9.8 grade! It was part of the second batch of signings (no press) and had been in Grading/Quality Control since 5/10 or so.

    Same, except mine had a press. My Mirage TMNT still sit on SFG though.

    Good morning,

    They are in encapsulation right now.  There is a bit of a backlog for the Eastman signing in encapsulation right now so it will take a bit longer than normal to get it encapsulated.  Hopefully it should be coming out this week.

    Thanks for your patience!

    Ive been pretty patient up until this point but Iam starting to get upset here Jennifer. What is going on with these submissions?! Are they damaged, lost? Its been literally months past the expected date....

    Hey Jennifer, its been 2 weeks since then and they still havnt moved. Is everything going ok? 

  10. Same here, Jennifer on the "Ask CGC" thread has told me for 3 weeks now that my books are being encapsulated "as we speak." She even told me that 2 weeks ago, she knew PERSONALLY that they were being finished and that they would be out by this week, maybe next by the latest. Well its been almost 3 weeks since that date.....I wonder if CGC even reads these forums? Do they know that a MASSIVE amount of the community see's them as a Monolithic Monopoly Man type monster that spits on his patrons? For a company making so much money and handling so many million dollar items and what not, you would think they were a little more conscious of who keeps the lights on? In any sense pretty sure this is the last CGC send in ill be doing, CBCS is right on their heels and with CGC not able to get their turn around times under control, its going to force the markets hand in accepting CBCS more. The same exact thing CGC is trying to do with the card grading, they are hoping people are done with the massive wait times and bend over PSA and Beckett give you. Well CGC, it goes both ways my friend, it goes both ways......

    Me too Ryan. Its funny I'd like to more signings but as a 1st experience this has been tough.

    marked Received on 12/30/2020 In house Signing Magazine  still at received 

    I paid for pressing the magazine too. Book left my hands half a year ago.

    Dude, I sent in 2 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #3 from Mirage to CGC for pressings and grading last year on 7/31. I got them back by 1/5/21, opened the box, took out their shipping order, placed mine in it for the signings and sent them off to CGC. I didnt even get to look at them, lol, so CGC has had 2 books of mine since August of last year......sighs

    If it's a mag, hmmmmmm that presents a problem really cause 

    The 1st signing didnt even happen until March 

    So how it went to sfg in February  (shrug)

    Thay dont make a lick of sense for the Eastman signing, but if it were a regular blue label maybe but you said you talked to them so idk

    Iam sorry, your right. According to my complaint to CGC, lol, it the status went to SFG on 3/23. It was updated from received on 1/15 to received on 2/15, then SFG on 3/23.

     

    So its been on SFG for over 7 weeks.....

     

    Got my Frank Miller Signed comics back today before they even went on Grading! Still all 3 mags sitting on SFG. FLM man lol

    It's tough, but you're not the only one, perhaps the only one that's been sfg for so long, but one guy mentioned being sfg for 3 weeks but your right that's a bit long

    Dude, not even joking, the 2 Modern Magazines are the ones iam talking about, they have had them since 1/8, updated the status to SFG on 2/15!!

    My Eastman books have been in SFG for over a month now, when I called them they said it would be done any day now - that was 2 weeks ago. 

    DUDE! You just quoted my last month! They told me the same damn thing, its been on SFG since 2/15.....wtf man! D:

  15. Has ANYBODY gotten their Kevin Eastman signed comics or magazines back yet!? Good lord I keep getting the run around from them on it, I sent in 3 magazines on 2 separate orders, the first one wasnt signed at the event so they had to mail it to him. The other two were signed at the event and then put on Scheduled For Grading on 2/15/21. After 2 months if waiting on that I contacted them and they said it was backed up and would be coming out soon, another two weeks went by and I contacted them AGAIN and they said it was being finished and would come out in the next week......well that was 2 weeks ago AGAIN and neither of the orders have moved an inch. I have even received comics pressed and signed back from the Frank Miller 35th Anniversary signing, an event held afterwards...... W.....T.....F MAN!!!!

    Good morning,

    We are expecting the 2nd batch of signings back from the artist in the next week or so.  Once we have that back we can start grading the first invoice.  

    I will send a message down for the second one since that one was already signed.  It looks like it is delayed in encapsulation.  We are running a bit behind in that department so I'll see if they can locate it and get it moving ASAP.

    Thanks!

    Any info you could share with me at this point Jennifer? Its been almost another 2 weeks and it still sits on SFG...

    Awesome thanks Jennifer! 

  18. I was wondering If I could get any insight on some books Iam having signed.

    I have two submissions to CGC for signings by Kevin Eastman, I remember the email saying some of them would be pushed back but one of the two submissions say its been on Scheduled for Grading for 4 weeks now. 

    CGC2634761934 is the one thats waiting to be signed I think?

    CGC2724734165 are the other 2 that have been on Scheduled For Grading for 4 weeks now

    Any info if much obliged! 

  19. Brother in law shipped 4 moderns(Something is Killing the Children #1's) under my account 2/6/2021

    USPS says it was accepted 2/10/2021

    They never updated it as received so he called them and they said that they were just adding comics they had received from the first week of February to the queue and that his would probably take 2 weeks longer to even show up.

    Miraculously, 3 days later it was updated to "received" in the system. lol 

    So 3/2 received. Slow track modern, no press.
