  1. Grades don't post until its shipped. The shipped one was 23 cards (w/ subs). The one still in grading has 105. I expect that to be shipped in the next 2-3 weeks.
  2. I've completely lost track of all the inbetween statuses, But All my March and April submissions are in grading or has shipped
  3. You'll get an email by the next day with a receipt that has the Tracking number on it. I've noticed that USPS shipping doesn't provide a link anymore. Fedex and UPS does though. Grats on getting your cards back
  4. If there is no "accounting" issue, they always charge mine at the Grading/QC stage if they didn't when it goes into G/E/I. It seems like they're moving the charging phase to G/E/I but its kind of inconsistent now because of the random accounting issues people keep getting
  5. I'd say yes. If its been more than 2 weeks, I'd call. For some reason they keep messing up credit card numbers
  6. Are we talking about CGC today or CGC in month 3?? CGC (Cards) is a different company than it was when it first started. Are we going to keep using the fact that early one they had mess cases when they've evolved the cases over and over again and have gotten better?? Its going to take a while before the market values CGC like PSA/BGS. I think they're going in the right direction as far as grading quality. CGC has a ton of other issues that they have to work on though, but its not the cases
  7. I can see grading fees dropping since the backlog has been caught up to, but I don't think its going to change CGC's grading practices as far as how many 9s vs 8.5s are given out. Agreeing with this ^^. I feel the majority of people who grade cards actually want to keep the card and want it protected with the potential to sell it later on down the line for another card or when they're tired of it. As far as selling prices, I think we have to wait longer to have real data as well as this ever elusive pop report just for comps. But it's also a dead time, comparing todays prices to this time last year is a bit skewed since everything was inflated.
  8. Toss up. Theres no hard fast time really. Either gotta just watch it or wait until you get the shipped email 🤷🏾‍♂️
  9. My Old submission that was received on 4/5/21 (Economy w Subs) Is now in Grading/QC Another old bulk submision received on 3/15/21 has shipped today Another Bulk (w/o subs) received 4/5/21 went into Grading/Encapsulation on Monday
  10. Yeah this is true, If there aren't any real issues, it will get fixed during grading. This never showed up until that system change where they added `Scheduled for Grading` status immediately where it looks like they just rapidly making a list?? Not sure why thats happening. But this issue with mine we how I actually got the card back and decided not to get it fixed since Im just keeping it for myself. I may get it fixed if I ever find my self in Florida and just do a walk-in, but yeah, its kind of annoying how it got that label and I didn't enter it as staff. And if I did it should've been caught during grading 🤷🏾‍♂️
  11. I had 2 labeling errors on cards and just decided to keep them to not have to wait another 6 months lol. I'll probably send them back to get fixed once things calm down again
  12. I've noticed that people stuck in Grading/Quality Control end up having accounting issues. Would like to check if mine is having accounting issues as well Submission: #3818568 P.S. Is there a way to find this out without having to ask on the forums??
  13. Nice this is a weird new in-between stage. I still think you have Grading/QC left.
  14. And another Update. My order I've been Posting about is still in Grading/QC. BUT I have a new Bulk order that has gone into grading New Submission: Bulk w/o Subs: Received: 4/5/21 Grading/Encap: 9/13/21 Old Submission:
  15. Not yet. Usually I get the Shipping notice like 3-5 days after it goes into the final QC round. So should be getting that today up to Tuesday
  16. So now its in the usual Grading/QC phase. Really confused by all these new labels. Received: 4/5/21 Grading/Encap: (Forgot, It was about 2-3 weeks ago) QC/Finalized: 9/3/21 Grading/QC: 9/7/21
  17. Honestly I don't remember. Very much possible. Not sure if that would matter though.
  18. Just had one of My Economy (w/ subs) Submissions goto QC. They changed the label again D:. It's now Quality Control / Finalized Received: 4/5/21 Grading/Encap: (Forgot, It was about 2-3 weeks ago) QC/Finalized: 9/3/21
  19. I was thinking about this as well (The scraping portion). I may take a crack at this one my free weekends. The difficult part is pin pointing the cert numbers. As it seems to be shared with the comics as well. Will report back in a few weeks once I have some real time.
  20. If they are indeed valid cards, Paul mentioned in a post a while ago this gets fixed once its in the grading phase.
  21. They might have updated it for ramping up to grading other kinds of trading cards. I can see how the old case would mess up sports cards with pointy corners, but for Pokemon having rounded corners, it would be mute. Buuuuuuut DBZ has pointy corners 👀
  22. Oooooh, Are you suggesting that CGC themselves are manipulating prices?? You're not speculating, but how exactly does that work?? I wasn't aware of CGC selling cards or selling services to get a specific grade. Unless I totally misunderstood the post 😅
