C2N0

Not sure what happened here so I'll leave it for the forum to take a look at. Pack fresh, straight into sleeves, didn't notice anything out of the ordinary on the surface or corners. Do you guys see anything?

What tier of service did you send it in with?

I I had an order delivered 03/06 and received by the 10th but it was an express.

👍

Note: apparently the word “I-diot” is a banned term and gets replaced by the phrase “insufficiently_thoughtful_person”. This forum is something else man LOL

The term homer is so weird. Like I get it, it* can be used to describe someone you think is an insufficiently_thoughtful_person, but it also describes someone who basically doesn’t put any effort but and still somehow succeeds. 
 

So am I just winning arguments without even trying now? Lmao.

I guess you can call me a troll if you want, but at the same time I can only answer the same recycled prompt so many times before I get bored. At this point I’m treating them like creative writing responses lol. 

People have been saying they’re waiting up to 15 days to see it logged in the system so it’s definitely an issue of people willing to pay more to get stuff graded faster. Even with the price increase CGC is still the cheapest option compared to Beckett or PSA. I don’t expect that to slow down until their prices match or a shutdown happens. 

Sp33dy how are your orders coming along? I’m legit curious to see if they’ve progressed any or if you’re still stuck in an endless cycle of self anguish. 

Seems legit. 

Yeah. I’m definitely holding off from sending cards in for a while after this   it’s getting pretty backed up. 

I’m not sure if these even qualify to be graded. To my knowledge it’s just cards from the tcg. Check the online submission form. If information about the poker cards aren’t in there, then don’t send them in. They’ll reject the order, but still charge you the processing fee for each card because technically it went through their “verification services”.

Type; Standard, 3 cards

Date Delivered: 3/8

Current Status: Not yet entered.

It's been 3 weeks without being received. The total turnaround time was 30 days when I sent them in.

Sucks to hear man. At this point we can only assume its a ridiculous amount of packages being sent in, and higher tier ones at that.

Standard order received 02/25 is still in grading/quality control, but my card was charged so I can only assume its in the finishing stages. Hopefully it gets sent out by tomorrow. Today is day 22 and I think I sent it in when the TAT was 25.

Kinda. The express order I sent in when it said 15 days came back around 15 days so it wasn't too bad a wait. Just keep in mind everyone that's submitting is starting to send in orders at standard and above now, so it'll probably be slower than the TAT.

Don't worry about C2NO. He's becoming a cgc homer and troll. He doesn't want anyone talking bad because ppl have diff opinions than him. Ppl can get worried about things that seem to be missing or not done correctly. Maybe u should jus chill and let ppl vent

Good to see you to Sp33dy.

I'd like to think there is minimal training involved in receiving and sorting packages. I could understand the difficulty presented with scaling a high quality grading operation, but I assume in this economy it should not be that hard to find people looking for jobs, but I could be wrong. 

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

You’re welcome to apply and sort packages for them all day. Lol. 

There’s no set time. It’s just whenever they get to opening and entering the card data. There’s a lot of packages for them to sort.

The word lie has a lot of insinuation behind it.  Inaccurate (maybe), optimistic estimate based on planned changes to grading process or quantity of personnel (possibly).  For all we know, they do have a secret plan, and that could be actively training experts that will help them catch up, or closing off bulk submissions temporarily, or raising prices like the other companies again. If nothing changes though, and they grade 1 days worth of bulk submissions in longer than 1 day of effort (see my post above where I explain they have been making progress at a rate of about 2 days of bulk grading per week), logically the turnaround times can do nothing but increase.  At present rate, every week the bulk TAT should increase by 5 days.

Did it actually go up in the last 5 days, or is that an exaggeration? I haven’t looked at that page recently 

No you have to pay for them. Unless you paid for copies they are copyrighted images, kinda like how portrait companies would send home those test photos for school picture day. 
 

Screenshotting isn’t even worth it if you’re trying to show off the condition of the card though, it’ll show up as super compressed and blurry when people try to zoom in on it on eBay. Just pay the $10 for hi res images and add it to the cost of the card on your listing. If you can’t justify that cost for the card, then you don’t need a screenshot and a simple smartphone photo will do instead. 

Value of the card graded

What tier of service did you select? I always ask in case there’s someone who sent in cards at the same level and they’re curious about receiving time. 

Looks like my standard didn’t get finished today, but it was a good size order (20 cards) so maybe it’ll be done by Tuesday. 
 

Will update with the final TAT count once they upload grades

Anyone's package delivered on 3/1 still not shown as received on "my submission" page? Kind of concerned. Wrote "EX" all over the box but seems like it doesn't help.

I think it depends on the shipping. FedEx and UPS you can probably sign online, but USPS needs an in person signature, and it had to be the person named on the package. Anyone else that answers the door will just get a package slip for you to bring to the postal office. 

LOL so I guessed it and Paul just confirmed
