Finally, my submission went to shipped/safe. Pretty happy with the grades overall. One has me puzzled. Thought it was a 9.8 and came back a 9.0. Can't wait to see what I missed, because apparently I missed something there. I was pretty spot on for the rest of the books, except that one.

Ended up with 4 9.8 and 2 9.6 and the 1 9.0.

 

Regarding the 9.0, look for staple issues, either cover or centerfold. These are so easy to miss.

 

No staples, it was The Killing Joke (7th Print). I did not see anything wrong with it when I looked it over before submitting. I thought it was one of the better books I sent in. It will be interesting to see what was missed or maybe it was damaged in transit or at the facility.

Here's my Whiz #2 (#1) 10 day trek so far. I guess it's sitting in Memphis growing hair and fangs but at least it has a heartbeat. lol

Had one shipped today - it was received on the 14th, so 10 business days exactly.

 

Another one of the CGC Elite in front of me. :facepalm:

This is great info. I too have CIA on my collection, and will see about getting the FedEx account this week. I much prefer them over UPS for the ease of pickup if I miss the driver (have to drive 3x as far and deal with fewer lobby hours with UPS). This will probably net me the equivalent of a free grading or two a year with the savings from the sound of it, or make bumping to FT a wash. hm

 

If you have insurance from CI, Fedex is the only way to go - they only cover up to $2,500 for UPS shipments (no matter how it's sent through UPS), but go up to $60,000 for Fedex.

 

Can you provide the link to the CI insurance (I can't find any info to it)? Is it part of Fedex? Never thought there is a carrier cheaper than USP (within US)!!! Fedex ground is a way to go now for me. Thank you all for the info, such a great help.
