The competition isn't exactly The Flash when it comes to TATs either.

 

If their advertised TAT's are accurate then there are very fast options.

 

They aren't accurate.

I have 3 submissions in CGC since the beginning of March, the two modern prescreens are still in received, while the value tier prescreens just hit verified. They are really slammed with moderns.

I have modern fast track books that were dropped off at Mega-Con that were just verified. Normally they would be graded and shipped by now.

 

Looks like it's going to be a long summer.

As a customer, I don't want grading that is too tight or too loose. I want grading that is consistent and correct.

 

The grading coming out of CGC right now is brutal.

 

 

This. A hundred times this. Not sure I've ever complained about grading. I've missed stuff. But I have 2 subs done without a prescreen because I figured every book at least a 9.6, with most a 9.8. Most are 9.6 with a couple 9.4s and 9.2s. I can't imagine what a 9.9 looks like now. The requirements for a 9.8 have gone up substantially.

I sent in a book that was received on 1/26/2015. The book was sent in with the March Madness books. The book needed a press from CCS.

 

It just went to Verified last week.

I'm actually, glad to hear about the tight grading. As a buyer, I am now getting what I pay for. I think CGC went terribly soft a few years ago and it influenced our personal grading. We starting grading soft also. Now, CGC has finally tightened up. Maybe a 9.8 will now look like a near flawless book, this is the way it should be. Kudos to CGC !!! Tight grading is good for the hobby.

Tight or loose, just be consistent. Right now, they're not consistent. I'm still talking about nearly flawless books or else I wouldn't sub them without a prescreen if it mattered. I'm not just talking sour grapes here.
