A child, perhaps.

Or maybe he works at PSA or Beckett. Probably is the newest employee at GMA LOL. Or maybe hes over the pond at graded gem or that grading company in canada.

Hi guyz. Its ya boi geraldfordfan69 here and today Im going to tell you all how CGC NEEDS to be ran. I have zero experience dealing with trading cards, logistics, or anything, BUT, I do watch the best youtuber on the planet logan paul (PAUL NATIONNNN) so I know everything and CGC needs to listen to all this ASAP

1) Cut all prices

Sorry but CGC has gotten TOO expensive. We all know cards are for making love and being your best bros, so they need to be super cheap. Bulk needs to cost like a $1 lol. Like why is it $8? Thats way too overpriced. It takes them like 2 seconds to look at my card and put it in some plastic. That plastic probably costs like a penny, so the prices are kind of wack. Walkthrough is just WAYYY too much money, like ok yall can have like $5 for that, but $70? Come on, this is highway robbery! Yall can do way better than that.

2) Turn around times need to be quicker

Sorry but a month is just WAY too long. It neeeds to be like 30 seconds at best. Just look at the card, tell me if its good or not, put it in plastic, and mail it back. That takes like 5 seconds and then you can put a stamp on it and mail that bad boy back. You dont need a bunch of time to mail cards back. Me and my bois we graded cards all the time and it works fine. Someone gives me a buck, i tell them its a 10, I get a sharpie and write a 10 on the toploader and boom easy money. CGC is making this stuff TOO complicated. We dont need no fancy subgrades or multipliers or this math stuff. Just tell me if its a 10 or not. Its like how my boys look at girls. We dont say if shes a 7 or whatever, we just say 10 or 0. Makes life easier.

3) Members of this board need to be on your staff

I see some very brilliant minds on here. Not going to name names, but ya got the homebois that are constantly on here giving yall brillant advice. These need to be your next CEOs ASAP. The ones who complain the most, instant management material. Some of these dudes you could pay like 8 bucks an hour and they will work for life at CGC. Just the best minds of the industry with very indepth analysis. Very HUGE opportunity with these shining stars

4) Start grading Naruto cards

I keep hearing this talk about grading Marvel or Yugioh cards or whatever garbage other game, but we all know the money is in my boi NARUTO. Sasuke would be up in this biznatch messing things up asap and doing all these ninja backflips like its 1961 if we were to grade Naruto. I just dont get how CGC is missing out on a ton of money by not grading this legendary trading card game. Maybe they can also add Final Fantasy, another amazing game, but for now, this is where there is BIG MONEY

5) Make me the #1 CEO

Last but not last, I need to be running the company. Sorry but yall just need the GOAT of all GOAT's to be in charge of this machine. Im spitting all this knowledge for free and im not even being paid. I wouldnt even need to be paid as long as you give me naruto MY BOI SASUKE cards along with letting meet the GOAT himself LOGAN PAUL! No but really, just put me in charge and CGC will be the #1 company on the planet. We will beat out Apple, Facebook, Pokemon, the CDC, Nintendo, Applebees, all those weakinglings would be destroyed if I can CGC. 

You can contact me at geraldfordfan69paul4life@yahoo.com if you need me. Until then, PEACEEEE

Good to see you to Sp33dy.

There is a reason I have speedy blocked lol. I lose brain cells everytime I had to read what he wrote. Or she, since no man makes 3 threads about another man.

You’re right. You should apply to run their warehouse. Find the best package sorters. 

Gotta love people who wanna tell a business how to be ran with no prior experience. They should be banned for insulting my intelligence.

They dont protect against UV rays but I heard they are good against 5G radiation and global warming. There is a study going on if they are good against corona but nothing has been confirmed.

Your thread should do well.  We don't all grade for value or for flipping.  We might very well grade something because it has sentimental value.

If you poke around the comic forum you'll find all kinds of thread ideas that are transferable to the card forum.

Id just like some logical explanation on why people feel the need to spend money to put an old card in a plastic container if not for resale value. Why is a binder not good enough? And slabs tend to take up more space than binders and are harder to scroll through. Do people on here just have so much money that they need to find ways to waste it? Since I know some hungry kids overseas who could use some of it lol.

I'm not complaining about the pricing I know CGC has the best quality grading for the price all I'm saying is they need to have there grading times on point. Just be honest upfront on when we can expect our product instead of delaying it double the time we initially expected. 

They arent lying. They just got way more business than expected. My own shop is dealing with similar issues. We had product from distribution get delayed twice. Customers got pissed too. But its beyond my control, similar to how its beyond CGC's control. Unless they decide to reject shipments, there is no way for them to prevent someone from sending in 10k cards and jamming up the system.

Paul already told everyone that they hired 70+ people and got more storage space. They cant do much more than that with the resources they got. Regardless, I think you need to lower your expectations based on what is going on with the market in general. There was no way that you were getting a 45 day turn around time on economy. At least in 2021. Maybe later this year when the pandemic calms down and the hobby dies down a bit, yeah it might be realistic. But right now, yeah thats just not a realistic expectation based on current market conditions.

Sorry I cant hear you namelessone since your on my ignore list lol. I didnt even read what you wrote. im sure your offended by something. Maybe you thought this was reddit.com instead. You should check out your their pokemon forum there. Everyone agrees with each other no matter what they say. Sounds like a great place you can go and find something to be outraged about.

D'OH!

I was looking at sold prices, everything seemed to be $25+. I wouldn't know what to look for though.

Its a bad use of money. You buy a common for a dollar, you pay $8-$9 to grade it. You pay an ebay fee of 15%. You have to spend time mailing it. Mailing supplies cost money. You might get an irrate buyer. All that for what, maybe 5 bucks total at best?

I finally figured out the ignore list thankfully. Anyone whos off their rocker is on it lol. Speedy, Shining, the guy who hates disabled people, the guy who made this topic, etc. They all been brainwashed by social media or whoever that you need to waste money grading and you cant be happy just having cards in a regular old binder. They need some plastic container to justify their existence.

Im sure they are all ready at their keyboards ready to flame me saying "oh your ruining the hobby, dont tell me what to do, blah blah blah", but now i wont see them saying that. Seriously, grade stuff worth money. If not worth money, keep it in your binder. Or waste tons of money for no reason. I dont care, its not my life or my money, but if it was my collection of cards, yeah I wouldnt bother sending them in unless they are valuable.

Thanks for the reply, but doesn't really answer for anything basically. I paid for a service where CGC showed the turnaround times at 45 days once my order was received and now I am told 108 days after the fact? I didn't pay for 108 days turnaround otherwise I'd go somewhere else or pay for faster turnaround. CGC has a great opportunity to take over the card market but they need to be upfront on there service being provided as customers are dropping a lot of money and expecting these turn around dates instead of just sending an email saying "sorry" basically. It's like submitting cards now expecting 100 days and ends up being 200 days. Hopefully I'm wrong but right now I'm a very unsatisfied customer.  

There isnt anywhere that is doing bulk pricing for the turnaround time that your asking. CGC is a bargain right now. I dont think their walkthroughs will last since its a steal that you can get something in the 5 figures only graded for 75 bucks. They seem to be criminally undervalued if anything.

My bulk from 12/7 got scheduled for grading today. Im not doing bulk in the future since the market is flooded with new stuff going in. I get your annoyed that they changed that TAT's, but paying the 7-8 bucks per card to be graded, yeah you got an amazing deal. I think you dont realize the value of what you got. And its not going to take 200 days. Things are moving along in my account and many others. Everyone and their mother is grading, so the market conditions are what they are all over. Its not really an CGC exclusive issue.

Once again reading comprehension problems. I stated I used to work for Social Security. 

Shockingly another post indicating a complete lack of knowledge regarding the inner workings of Social Security. I never worked in a field office where people go to apply. I never had to see any applicants face to face. Our office doesn’t see people face to face and clients are not allowed access to the office.

 

Or maybe your just lying? The fact that you loosely call people disabilities is evidence that your completely full of ****. You should look into a career working at those student loan scams since it would be like the same thing for you.

It’s just hateful and idiotic.

So real talk, how much do you hate yourself knowing that you screwed over tons of people on a daily basis? Or do you just love being a terrible human being? I just want to know since I been with my family to SS offices and the people who work there are all miserable people who hate their lives. It must suck knowing that you wasted a majority of your life doing something that makes you wish your dead on the inside.

I just appreciate greatness when I see it. He even got me in a thread a few days ago saying Bulk was like 60 days or less (when the TAT was 79 per CGC at the time). Dude's a legendary troll.

 

Dude, did you just skip my response in that thread? People got their stuff back from early december. That was 60 something business days ago. Its not me trolling. Clearly your reading from other universe since here on planet earth, there are people who been getting orders back. You were just wrong in thinking the TAT's are gospel.

FYI for those complaining about free speech, posts like this are gonna get yanked.  Calling someone a name or stupid or arguing doesn't fly here.  Well, at least not past Monday.

Calling someone stupid for acting stupid is acceptable. I dont think you have to be 100% tolerant of everything. Not sure if you ever read the paradox of tolerance, but yeah, not every idea should be tolerated. If some guy makes a thread tomorrow saying "CGC is bad because their cases are bad and if you like CGC, then your bad ", I feel every right to call that person stupid. 

But some people on here are just completely morally bankrupt and should be banned. I dont know if this stuff is the normal or what, but by tomorrow when I have to do work, Im just going to try to kind of forget about this place. Its just hateful and idiotic.

Yeah probably because it wasn't his first language. But you were too busy being a **** to realize that. it's not so fun when you're the one being called out for your stupidities, is it?

If it wasnt his first language, he would have said so. Foreigners are typically humble and not hyper aggressive when they dont know the language.

You sound like a perfect fit for reddit.com. Everyone on there loves to be offended and outraged while trying to sound smart all the time. You should consider going there since you will fit in way better.

I think quite a few people have been had by a god-tier troll. 

I can only tip my hat to you out of respect at this point, @mattyzeepgam  

The jokes on them though. They have to wake up every day living with themselves lol. Especially that social security guy who has probably ruined a **** ton of peoples lives yet wears it like a badge of honor. Or the one guy who made 2 threads about me. Very crappy people. Very hallowed and miserable individuals who cant face their real problems so they have to lash out online to block out the pain of being a bad person.

Just now, johnnyms said:

I mean I seen you telling someone they were bad at english in the thread you got deleted. so it's only fair to call you out for your stupidity too, am I right? 

He was terrible at english. I **** up on a few words here but that guy wasnt even trying to sound coherient. Is gaslighting and deflecting your passion? Do you love drama so much that you dont know when to quit?
