Whats the current average time from a package being delivered to it showing in the submission list? I have a package delivered on the 9th (showing as received on CGC Package Delivery) that is not being listed on the submission page. They used to tell you the dates they were opening packages from but I no longer see that. 

Thanks!

I just got these two back and I am not sure if they have the correct description and title. 1st they labeled them as if they are reprints which I am not sure is the case. Second they are UK versions but i was pretty sure they were Australian. ?!?! 

Just got this book back form CGC and was surprised to see it listed as a UK version. I was under the impression it was an Australian version. 

If any one has experience or knowledge please help me out here. I was using this link to gather my thoughts on the topic. http://lewstringer.blogspot.com/2015/11/the-british-superman-from-australia.html

I would be more interested in a scan of the back cover. 

Does not look like any of the staining was removed. 

Feeling Good. Love this book.

So @Brad Ross Cohen, did they ship your economy submission and your value submission together in one shipment?  Thanks,

They did not. They shipped them same day in separate boxes. One showed up today and the other is lost in USPS land

How can we see what the TATS where when we submitted? Looking at May of 2021. 

Wayback machine has them on April of 2021 as 110 Days. Ha!

It would depend on what tier and Fast track etc. if economy, then no, but if modern then yes  

They were economy and value.  

ASM 40, 54, 122 (Value / Vintage)
Showcase 30 & X-Men 14 (Economy)

I wish I knew about my local pressing and cleaning service before sending those in. 

I have books that were logged in at CGC on May 2021 and then Received by CCS in early July 2021. Has anyone seen movement on book in a similar time frame with CCS?

They hit this one hard. They did not consider the gripper marks to be manufacturing defects based on the notes. 

 

Grader Notes

spine stress lines to cover
very light tears to cover

 

Happy with this one. Lots of good guesses.

A pretty sight - 3 Submissions of 25 each. 

Received 11.15.21

SFG 11.15.21

GEI 3.11.22

QCF 3.22.22

Shipped 3.22

I emailed support last week for an update on a submission via my presser. I was told that my books are "currently in the grading room."

I have not heard this before from the support team and did not get clarification. Do you think this is a step above "Scheduled" and pre "Grading" ??

No way do I want to complain about 2 day turnaround on a 25 FT Modern Pre Screen but I am nervous it went so fast from GEI to Quality control that I probably got all rejects. In fact I never even saw this enter the GEI stage at any point today. 

And they shipped! All 25 are 9.8's! Then I look at the books I sent in May collecting dust  in their warehouse and scream WTF is the thought behind their madness.

Just picked this up this week. Obvious wear to it. Sending for a C&P to hopefully fix the spine roll and brighten. The color breaks are what they are. 

Thanks in advance for your thoughts. 

Thanks for lending your expertise. Currently out getting Cleaned and pressed before CGC submission. Nothing major jumps out at me. Corners are not super tight. Some of the purple ink looks rubbed.  Any spine roll will be removed with the C&P. 

This book is currently off at my presser getting the full spa treatment. Wondering what this would be prior to that P&C. 

Book presents well. Does have 2 spine ticks that show on the top front. One concern is the tear on the bottom center of the front. I think this might be manufacturing defect but not 100% sure. Same on the back cover. Any thoughts on this is appreciated.

4.5 due to stains

In your experience does the cleaning remove stains like this?

Another one from the vault. 

Book has a bunch of stains that I am hoping will come out with a cleaning. Minor creasing with some color breaks but nothing major. Corners are showing age. Front cover top edge and right edge has a small tear. 

Will be pressing and cleaning. 

Edited to change pics without the glare.
