I am getting stuff back that I subbed the last week of March.

 

The performance turnaround is nothing short of miraculous. It's almost too good - 6 months to 2 months. I almost shudder to think how they pulled it off.

Because everyone stopped sending modern submissions. They're all fast tracked.

Four days for a Walk-through.

 

I win.

Did they "walk" it to Chicago and back for grading?

[spidermanbeyond]

Is that the day your books were received? So, 60 days or so which is a great improvement.

CGC received my 4 of my books (standard submissions) today. Let's see how long this takes.

Moved from Verified status to Scheduled for Grading status today!

Moved from Scheduled to Grading/Quality Control status today!

Moved to Shipped/Safe status today! Books coming back are Batman 189, Sub-Mariner 6, X-Men 14, and Uncanny X-Men 142. Not exactly the grades I was hoping for, but still pretty good IMO, I'll post em in the back from CGC thread when they arrive.

Got my books back today, pretty much the results I expected, X-Men 14 did better than I thought it would. Posted them in the Back from CGC thread. Under 1 month turnaround, not too bad?

My Modern submission from ECCC has shipped (non fast track). My economy submission from the same show has not been scheduled for grading yet.

They let the premium tiers fall behind and focused exclusively on cheaper ones - which I personally think was pretty smart (even though it sucks that my FT submissions are delayed because of it).

[Mayor006]

Works for me I guess. Keeps my once a month submission of about 20 books going. Just send the May batch today.

Is this conjecture Mike or do you have some insight into a deliberate decision to do so?

Modern FT 5/1/13

Shipped 5/22/13

Modern FT 5/1/13

Shipped 5/22/13

 

This will sound like a gripe (it's not), but if its "first in first out" how does my 4/29 FT modern invoice still stay in QC when yours shipped today? My guess.... After grading "first in first out" they all go to a staging area to be encapsulated, QC'd, and then shipped. I'm guessing the FIFO process goes to more of a "batched" process toward the end and they prep multiple invoices to ship.

 

Once again, not griping. Just discussing and expect my invoice to ship any day....

One of my 5/1s shipped today as well, but I still have a 5/1 in QC as well.

I'd venture a guess and say that's probably exactly what the process looks like.

 

If you check out the post above mine, somebody had books from 4/30 that shipped prior to my books which would support your theory as well.

[youmechooz]

standard submission received 4/11

called today, they added a day and said it was the 12th so the website is wrong.

and they are currently at 23 business days.

same standard submission is still at graded. received 4/11

30 business days if you count received date, 29 if you dont.

since i dont really need the books back, im eager to see how long this submission can stay at cgc.
