Wow, I just had an economy sub go from delivered to shipped in 4 business days, extremely surprised with how fast economy has been going recently

Tcg economy

delivered 11/22/2021

grading/quality control 11/23/2021

i dont know if this is abnormal or not but does this mean it’s already been graded in a day or there is a payment issue?

Tcg - ECONOMY 

delivered 11/22/2021

grading/encapsulation/imaging 11/22/2021

This seems to be going super fast, any predictions on when this submission will be shipped?

I am just about to do a submission, and I selected FedEx return shipping from CGC, but I am shipping it with USPS to CGC, should I ship to their USPS address or their FedEx/UPS address

Where it says "shipped" under the status column, that should activate as an active link that you can click on to track your package. As mentioned in the previous post, you will also get an e-mail.

I did get an email with the tracking number, but there doesn't seem to be a link on where it says "shipped"

They are finally coming back, this was delivered 5/25 without ST,

Anyone know where I can find the tracking number from USPS?

I have a 5 card standard submission that got put to QC/finalized 2 weeks ago, and grading/QC a week ago. I called CGC on monday and they charged my account, so there shouldn't be any problem with accounting anymore. Any ideas on when these will be shipped?

8 Items, Standard grading, no subgrades:

Mailed: 4/26/2021

"Received" (as in, they scanned in the box finally): 7/20/2021

Service: TCG - STANDARD

Status: Grading/Quality Control

wow thats weird because I have a 5 card standard submission with subgrades that was delivered 5/25/2021 and its also in Grading/Quality Control and I have already been charged for it

my 5 card standard submission just went from QC/Finalized to Grading/QC, and I haven't been charged yet. Is there a problem? Should I call them?

I just checked the status of my 5 card standard submission that should be in grading/encapsulation/imaging right now, but when I checked it says I don't have any submissions in the past 8 months, is this a bug or a glitch in the system?

never mind it shows now

I don't think you understood the initial post.. it is graded a 6 due to extreme OC but the card otherwise is in great shape.. thus the reason I want to regrade it as a print error...

 

I would regrade it with CGC, even if it doesnt get the OC qualifier the lowest centering grade is an 8, and you can get the error label on it.

Yea my submission just went through! It's currently scheduled for grading now. I was just worried that it was sent to the wrong P.O. Box. I guess I was a little paranoid haha.

Marked the box with ST. How long does "Scheduled for grading" take usually?

took me just under 2 weeks before going to Grading/Encapsulation/Imaging with standard

I don't think it matters if you write ST, EX or walkthrough on the boxes anymore if their all cought up right?  Lol

true, but you never know with CGC

I sent my cards in for Standard service and USPS tracking shows delivered as of 8/28/21.

CGC is now opening packages for the week of August 30th, I can't find anything in my submission status and when I search the order #. Nothing shows up. Should I be worried?

No, just wait and they will probably open it soon. Make sure it was sent to the right address and you labeled the box with ST.

ayyy, just a few more weeks

this was delivered 5/25 without ST on the box

Hello,

I was feeling nostalgic recently with all the hype around Pokémon and decided to buy a Chilling Reigns Elite trainer box from eBay which was advertised as sealed and new. When I got the package and got to the packs themselves I became a little suspicious. I don't know a lot about being able to tell if a pack has been resealed but I noticed that all of them had glue residue on the top front of the packs which I recall being a sign of the pack being tampered with.

Another thing I noticed but didn't take a pick of was that a lot of the packs had their crimp already loose in the back. Looking at the cards themselves more than a few of them seem to have issues too with them have white edge markson the back or nicked corners which doesn't make sense for pack fresh cards unless the batch had a quality control issue which isn't unheard of.

I was also able to pull this trainer full art rainbow rare but think it's probably fake if the packs were resealed but don't know enough to test if a card is fake or not. All I could say is that it feels thin but don't have any recent guaranteed real cards to compare it to. It does have a texture on the front though.

Thanks

everything looks perfectly fine to me. the chance for it being resealed is also extremely low if it comes out of an etb. Also, pack fresh cards having a lot of whitening is completely normal, it could have had a rough time shipping and the packs could have moved around inside the etb.

My submissions are not loading, am I the only one with that issue? Could it be because mine just charged me?

I dont think so, because I have it too and my submission is supposed to be in scheduled for grading. It's probably just a bug that will get fixed soon.

Yesss finally, my standard submission got received and immediately went to scheduled for grading

Your not the only one. Me and countless others got shafted on this issue....

same, I also had a sub delivered 5/25 without ST on the box, and it still hasn't been marked as received yet

Hi guys, fairly new to getting cards graded and was just curious about something in my recent order. 

I was just a little confused about the grade a pokemon card receives vs the subgrades. I was thinking the card is graded from adding the subgrades up and dividing the amount by the amount of subgrades there are which is 4. Is that the case with CGC or the subgrades don't influence the main grade the card receives? 
I was just double checking the cards I got back a couple weeks ago and was confused.

For an example, one of my charizards subs are 9, 7.5, 8.5, 7.5 and the card graded 7.5 

Appreciate it if anyone can just explain the process of it to me

Thank you

if the lowest 2 sub grades are the same, that is the overall grade of the card

One day...

Wait, I thought bulk was a minimum of 50 cards per submission...

Anyone know about how many points would be taken off surface for a scratch like this?
