Right but then there shouldn't be a tat at all then. An estimate is an approximate guess which is close to the tat. It doesn't mean to keep extending it indefinitely. A tat sets expectations and if you can't meet that expectation then get rid of the tat like psa did, its that simple.

Exactly get rid of the time ur making ppl believe that u can get the stuff done at. Dont leave false pretense up and then not expect ppl talking about it

Still belive alot of yall are the staff.lol Paul. Its ok to let ppl be mad, the last few responses from yall is alot easier to read. The angry and name calling isn't what is necessary

Im really not trying to be rude with you dude, but how many times do you have to be told that complaining is not an option? Its not going to magically do anything else. You have one option, which is just waiting. Thats it. CGC isnt this dumb company that you need to tell them how to work. They know whats going on. Their mail room is bombed every day with more mail. They are aware of the situation. If they were clueless, I dont think Id be still sending them more cards at this point and I dont think their comic grading would have lasted this long. 

I just think you need to realize that you dont need to be on the internet bugging these people 24/7 like it does something. It doesnt. I have never contacted CGC yet my standard orders are coming back just fine. The industry is at an all time peak in terms of volume. Its unprecedented. Its not a normal situation, so you have to just relax and wait since thats all you can really do.

Yet u are on this 24/7 bugging ppl lol. Hey if this can help clear up anyone before they submit im glad doing this. Knew ppl should know that when they submit that they better not believe that 79 days for bulk is insanely wrong on cgcs side for leaving that up. They should put Because who tf knows when thats coming back. Can u agree on that. Knew ppl putting their first submissions only believe what they see on cgc, and should be given a heads up on what's really happening

People keep saying there is a public statement by cgc regarding trading card TATs, can anyone direct me to it? I can't seem to find it.

All they say is, we understand everyone's feelings towards tat and they are trying their best. Nothing else. 

Yes and we all agree with it. But being quite when their is a issue doesnt work also. So what then

Again the same ppl get mad about ppl being mad. Noone is mad they jus want it to be honest. Ur batting a eye for this company, and thats why ppl say u must be Paul or affiliated with them. All u say is cgc is doing their best and they are awesome or bring up a fake Paul quote. Lol

Unrealistic expectations are not CGC's fault. There is no fine print that says, "TAT estimates are plus/minus 1 week".

Complaining isn't going to change anything. CGC knows that they need to reduce TATs, they told us that, and they told us that they're expanding their workforce. Crying until you're blue in the face won't change anything.

"...their isn't a good answer..." Actually, there is. There is a correct answer, which is literally the best answer.

But its not. 30 days when u submit and then its passed over 100 days, would not be a close estimate. Be honest to urself. Seems like they are jus throwing out a number and thats it

Yupp sounds like ur Paul himself lol, brings him up like all the info he gives is always correct. Chill out it isn't that serious. They should jus not have a tat, because new ppl look at that and expect it to take a week extra at max. Not expecting 5 months when it was 1 month when they submitted. Their isnt a good enough answer u can give them. As much as u try and scream estimated until ur face turns blue, their isn't a good answer buddy

These guys go for bat for cgc everyday because more and more ppl.come here after their sub has already turned double to triple the original tat. Tat is a estimation. But jus like all other things. U take ur car to fix and they say its gonna be around 50 to fix and u say ok let's do it. And then they finish and say it's 300. U freak out and they say relax the other price was estimation and this is the true cost. These dummies are not gonna be ok with it, they would be mad jus like anyone else. And did u check out the increase again today. Lol. Another day another increase

Yup, I don’t think it’d be that difficult to do either. Unless the companies don’t wanna show how slow the progress is. People will hate either way, but I’d actually like to see it slowly get closer than nothing 

Exactly if I knew exactly where they were at and I can see when it should be my turn. The only time they will recieve calls is if they pass the time and theirs wasn't done 

That would be good jus everyone knows when its their turn. Psa did right doing that. Thats keeping ppl updated alot clearer

That wasnt a joke. This dude legit graded a water energy and then complained that it wasnt a perfect 10. You can grade whatever you want, just dont complain when your 10 cent cards jam up the system and it takes longer to get your cards back. 

I agree to a extent

 Maybe thats his kids first pack pulled ever and he wants to grade it for him. Each have diff reasons to grade and shouldn't be held to a false pretense

Im not employed by anyone. And mad? Dude, they are childrens cards, not your pay check. You can sit around and complain until your face turns blue, but thats not going to change reality. 

Exactly, but doesn't matter what its for. When u order something and they say u will get it in 2 weeks. But 2 months passes by, are u happy and ok or are u checking tracking and calling looking for what u paid for. These cards are for my kid thats been waiting and all I can tell them is keep waiting because they are not ready. Kids don't understand that they can jus keep extending stuff with no problem and we are forced to accept it

Dude, you grade water energies and eat at mcdonalds. Its not CGCs fault for your poor life choices. You grade newer cards under economy and wonder why you lose money. Your not a special and immune to accountability. Whoever told you otherwise clearly lied to you or was afraid of hurting your feelings. 

U use that wack water energy joke alot. Grow up ppl can grade whatever they want lol. Recycle ur jokes

Dude, why are you being so mean to the mind of our generation that is sp33dy?!?! Without him, CGC would be out of business in 2 seconds. His insights that are lightyears ahead of ours are just too good that we must bow down to him. I dont think my life would be the same if I didnt wake up to posts like his that constantly complain about the bulk turn around times. Forget Bill Gates and Steve Jobs, sp33dy's comments are what makes or breaks society....

U guys are some funny guys. Most likely working for this company lol. If ur given a tat u expect it around that or give or take a week. If ur job tells u they gonna pay u next week and next week comes and they say another day u would be mad right. These are jus discussions everyone is open to talk about. If ur happy and ok with things, perfect in glad for u but doesn't mean anyone is wrong for wanting closer to what they expected

Just now, Angel of Death said:

Apparently you haven't really been paying attention to this sub-forum, because CGC has addressed the situation of their TAT extensions.

Yes and they obviously give misinformation all the time. They told me several times that I wouldn't get affected with tat increases, that only applies for ppl that are submitting during that time. But obviously that's a lie. Some ppl jus want honest questions and transparency. And when u tell someone something at least make sure its correct 

U do understand thats how business  works and fix things. They need feedback or they will think they are fine and everyone is happy. 

And then the ppl like yall.complaining and crying about ppl complaining and crying lol. Its the same exact thing. But guess yall crying about it is ok

Hello @Abeyea,

The turnaround times are based on the date that the submission is received. If yours was received the same day as our fellow poster, then it should begin progressing through the system very soon as well. Thank you for your patience.

Would i still be affected with new tat, my original tat was 35 for bulk

Yeah I used a 1 day shipping and they haven't updated anything in a week. I put a insurance claim already smh

Why do u guys feel complaining is a bad thing. Complaining is what helps, when someone knows something is wrong they will work to fix it. Yall think ill be quite and stick up for them because maybe they will give me all perfect 10's lol. Its a place to talk about things and if ur giving misinformation ill give my thoughts and let ppl know the truth and not a sweet cover up

You probably shouldnt have graded 50 water energies

Why is that such a "funny" joke. What i grade and what u grade doesn't matter. We all have different reasons to grade things.

I have yet to have that issue. Every time its scheduled for grading, it gets graded pretty quickly. Regardless, that doesnt change anything. They are working on your stuff. Just relax.

They are not, they are still alot of ppl before me thats on received. They are sinking and they know it

Um alot of ppl need to stop misinformed ppl. Scheduled for grading takes ot longer than a few business days. Some ppl stay weeks to months on Scheduled for grading. I'm on over 40 business days of being on received on my bulk order from Dec and thats before they switched tat. So if they switch tat u will be impacted even tho they say u won't.
