current turn around rates at CGC 80 80

[BDubs]

I'm showing Submission #4013446 which is 18 books somehow showing prescreen and 16 books were rejected however my packing slip has nothing on it regarding a prescreen?
Anyway to have these books graded as requested in Order #: CGC2540667377?  I really hate paying for pressing on all books for them to be rejected in a prescreen that I didn't request?

Order #:

CGC2540667377

I suggest e-mailing or calling.

In the "Where in the World was the QC" thread, someone recently made a post about do-it-yourself grading kits.  I think we're experiencing do-it-yourself customer service.

What am I not seeing here on the prescreen? I submitted these I believe in January or March.

I tried calling and they are closed.  I really hope these books are in good shape.  They left here NM so surprised at the reject although I don't know the prescreen grade level.

Since these are FT AND went through CCS, I'd call as soon as I could.  If you email, it may be 2+ days before your message gets read.  They may finish your other 3 books by then.

Thanks guys!  I'll call first thing in the morning.  Still very new and appreciate the direction and feedback!

8/19 shipped for 9/14/21 received, got back in mail today

From my last three modern fast track submissions: sent to MCS for auctions...12 books all have scuffing on outer case as well as inner case and one has debris inside (as noted by MCS)...I have sent over 100 CGC graded slabs to MCS..sure, scuffs every now and then..but all of these recent ones ?  Submissions were all from June  and on. The ones I send off to MCS I just check for obvious damage and put back in the plastic sleeve and back into the same box from CGC. I have 20 plus more new slabs waiting to be checked into MCS for auction, IDK, I hope this isn't a long term trend with CGC..anyone else noticing this?

@mycomicshop

Conan, have you noticed an increase in blemished CGC output lately? Are your slab checkers becoming more fastidious? Maybe both? 🤷‍♂️

MCS has always been ultra liberal with regards to notating scuffs on slabs, in an effort to reduce potential returns. When I send in slabs for consignment I just assume the listing will mention scuffs, and I assume buyers have caught on to that as well, basically ignoring the listing notes and instead looking at the scans to make their buying decisions.

Can't complain.

Last Ronin SS finally shipped yesterday after I called to inquire as to it's whereabouts. Still got the 9.8, no customer service downgrade 

[cd4ever]

I saw yesterday they announced a Peach Momoko signing.  And reasonably priced. She never does signings so I imagine this will be a massive flood of books.  Hope CGC is ready.

I'm still hung over from the last one in 2012.

Not aware of any specific recent trends from CGC, no.
