Should be 9.5. 

9.5 10 10 10 = pristine 10

They actually responded to my next email about me being able to "still submit it", but they basically said that I can send it in and /hope/ it gets graded? What??

Why would I waste my time and money for JUST the possibility that a grader might be in a good enough mood to grade my card, despite what was stated right beforehand?

Just giving a straight yes no would be fine so I don't have to strain my brain going "what if?" on sending it in or not. Maybe I can throw it in a washing machine and go viral to get their special destroyed card treatment like with the washer zard 😑😑😑

They would authenticate the card but won't encapsulate it. They'll create a label and everything but since it won't be encapsulated, you can say that label goes to another zard card of the same type.... So it would be pointless and a waste of money imo to submit that card. 

Sounds about right. They'll take your money one way or another....

I was charged for a Bulk submission on 12/27/22 that has been stuck in Grading/Encapsulation/Imaging since then. 

Customer Service just told me I'll see the cards "mid to late March". So potentially over 3 months beyond when I was charged.

Okay sounds great I'll be out thousands of dollars for a few months, no biggie. Let me know if you guys need more.

      They need to put a hold on other grading tiers until they get this bulk under control. I've seen people with economy submission being shipped back with in 10 - 15 days after it arrives at CGC.

     I really don't understand how it will take 3 - 4 months to grade a 50 card bulk submission after entering GEI fase (this is my experience)..... does it really take one whole work day to grade just one single card?

Thought I would update that I now have 2 bulks in G/E/I and both have been charged (one in december and one earlier this week). These were for an early August received date.

Thanks!

I paid way in advance for my bulk submission due to my CC info changing....

But as of today, my 8/26 bulk submission has been in GEI for exactly one month. Hopefully ours will ship out the same day. Maybe one more month? Let's hope for the best.... Good luck!

Seriously dude!  Where are bulk orders right now?  Mine was delivered 4/28, received 7/28, still stuck in G/E/I!!!

No idea. No one really post their submission info on here anymore. They just come on here to complain. Which I totally understand.... my 8/26 bulk sub has been in G/E/I for exactly one month now.... Economy been having 10-15 day turn around times lately....

Are we able to submit as reholder for pristine 10s with no subs to get subs or is it regrade?

Read the OP post

That's what I did, it's really bigger.
But if it's like that, why was it graded anyway, what do I have to do with a graded card without a slab?

Idk but I would contact CGC Mike like he asked and see what can be done. As far as the grade you got for the card means nothing since it's not slabbed.... 

Even tho its a small difference, try sizing them up with other cards you have lying around @Oreos @roi asraf

The ancient Mew movie promos always had an issue where some cards were over sized/not cut properly. I assume the card you have is to big to fit in a slab properly without it getting damaged/pinched in between the slab is to why they didn't slab it.

Any idea on when yugioh submission will be accepted?

Just like the pop report, they're working on it....

The march is in Encapsulation / QC. Not sure what's going on with the May.

Did you call them? Sounds like some kind of accounting issue/glitch that people run into every so often. Don't expect CGC to call you or anything if there is a problem because they won't. You have to stay on top of your submissions or they'll get lost in the void until you contact them. They will act like they don't know what's going on but will push it threw. This is all from my own experience and stuff I've read here on the message boards.

Good luck.

Is there a typical time for shipment following being charged? My status has been in Grading/Encapsulation/Imaging for a while now and I was charged on December 15th. 

Here lately for Bulk submissions 2 - 3 months.

I will never understand why people think "pack fresh" cards should be automatically 10s....

Can we spot the issue here?

Inconsistency after inconsistency… how can I be home to sign for my generic 8.5 slabs/registered mail if you my submission isn’t updated to shipped?

C’mon now.. this is the second submission that this happened with. If I didn’t have USPS informed delivery I would have never known. With the previous submission I had to call to have things updated (WEEKS LATER) so a buyer could look up a cert number that wasn’t showing up in the CGC system. Apologies for b!tching but I’ve yet to have a pleasant sub experience after seven or so of them here.

 

They didn't send you a email either? A shipping acknowledgement?

I agree this is a problem. I sent over 100 cards for bulk grading and none got a 10. That includes over 10 illustrator charizards which most got 9.5 grades. Over 10 General Mills Pikachu all got 9.0 or below. I know I’m not paying $100 a card to grade but c’on there should be at least one 10. I am seriously considering canceling my membership. CGC needs to understand the market is down for sellers right now. And a CGC 9 is not valued the same as a PSA 9. Much less a 8.5 or 8 for a truly mint card. 

Maybe you should of went with psa or beckett?

Standard 

Received - 1/4

Shipped 1/7

 

Looks like standard is the new walkthrough tier.

I did this and the post office couldn't access the shipping label. They said I need a QR code or a shipping label in my email that they could print. Otherwise I would pay another $50.00 to send and insure the package

When you do a submission and pick which shipping you want that's for the return shipping only back to you.

It's your responsibility to ship your cards to CGC. So yes you have to pay for shipping.

My submission says grading/quality  control.      Yet when I click them words I'm taken to fedex that says it shipped 2 days ago and is almost here.    Yet the page that lists cards shows no grades or sub grades.  

 

Somthing is fishy with cgc online status. I just want to know my grades before I get my box. 

 

But.   My order was shipped to cgc 12/27,  received 12/29. And was shipped back to me 1/3 according to link info.    Not bad times.    Ordered Standard with sub grades. 

I have a feeling your cards didn't get graded....

There was still an accounting hold on my order even though I paid the beginning of last week 🤦‍♂️

I don't understand why CGC wouldn't call or email their customers if there is an issue with a submission.... Just doesn't make sense 😕

I think  strategy guide can be considered as  magazine? Most of them are released by magazines as a "special edition"

And are mostly the same size as a magazine and/or Comic.

It's all up to you and what you want to get graded. If you are trying to grade and sell then do some research on Ebay or other sites to figure out if its worth it to you.
