Wow, maybe the modern slow track group that hit SFG on 6/20 is closer than I thought. I am holding my breath for this one.

Just had my Eastman signed magazines go to G/QC today.  A Saturday, hope they are getting paid overtime.

[Aarrow108]

Also had some movement today (Saturday); the two most recent Standard submissions received on 7/11 moved to Grading/Quality Control; had moved to GEI on 7/21 (so from GEI 7/21 to Grading/QC 7/23):

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

I worked for a restaurant that when slow/moderately busy made all the orders in chronological order but when they got really  busy and the printer was going mad...the cooks would pull all the tickets and just place them in any order (not paying attention to timestamps)...often people who ordered later would get their orders made sooner and those who ordered first got their orders last. I chalk it up to the stress the workers were feeling..at some point they just dont care. I think this may be happening at CGC...they are extremely busy and feeling the pressure...so processing orders in chronological order doesnt matter to many of them anymore....or the other theory is that orders are parsed out to individuals and some are slower than others.

Why is CGC so hard on moderns? It's not worth sending in moderns from the 80's & 90's at this point and time.

Some people assume that faster is worse grades but I have not noticed anything like that. For the orders I have done, the ones moving through way ahead of schedule were graded the same as the ones a bit slower, which is to say you have about a 1 in 4 chance of getting a particularly harsh grader either way.

A group of 10 ME books received on 7/15/22, shifted right through G/E/I and into QC today 7/26/22.

Yeah, the ME books can sit for a long time at the last stage. I am not expecting any movement on mine now for a while.
