I feel like this is going to happen to me. I had 0 clue what I was doing with my first submission. Did about a month of research and spent some time in the PGM forums, but still feel like I've learned a lot since I sent that faithful, unpressed set of books to CGC. back in June.

I did a second submission which got graded in about 2 weeks and got home very quickly. Those ones got pressed and everything came back as expected or higher. I don't think that will be the case with my initial submission lol.

My biggest fear is an ASM 194 I sent out. I was such a noob, got it for $100 and figured why not, even if its a 6.0 I'm doing well for myself. I didn't know to check if it was complete or had any restoration to it or water damage. Have 0 clue what grade/coloured label that book will get, but only time will tell. 

Everyone here was a noob once. Welcome to the club.

3/2- Received 

10/27- G/E/I

 12/8-  Grading/Quality Control

12/13- Paid to CGC, but no movement on the G/QC

I don't like surprises so i checked the grade.  I guess it was worth the wait and no upcharges.

If you mean this book...

...then that is a "UK Price Variant" and should be labelled as such. It is not a reprint - it came off the same press, as part of the same print run, as its US cents priced counterpart.

So fun times... 5 CCS/CCG subs received 4/7... 4 have been stuck in CCS in Process since Oct,  but 1 made it to G/E/I on 11/19... I just got charged for that one in grading... here's where the "fun times" come into play... I paid a large portion of the grading fees in advance back in Oct, but they decided to charge my primary payment (aka my checking) instead of that... which is pretty much empty after paying rent/car payment/insurance yadda yadda yadda... yay over draft fees and figuring out where to come up with $600 in 24 hours... 😐

Yes thank you! I'll follow up via pm if needed.

Thanks for the info.

Ummm...is CGC offering free grader notes now?  I resubbed a book for a CGC-SS and randomly check the old number to see if any progress is actually happening and I noticed that there was a new layout:

So I decided to check a random book off of eBay and got this on a book I didn't own or submit:

Did I miss a memo?  

edit:  yes, yes I must have.  This is now on their membership page, free grader notes has been updated on the non-free tiers:

grades that is

That was my hope for my 50 modern slow boats that were SFG on 8/4, but have been stuck at GEI since 11/29. At this rate, I will consider myself lucky to have them back before February seeing as how some invoices stay at GEI for weeks/months while others go straight through QC and are shipped within 24-48 hours of being in GEI. The grader who has my books must be inspecting them with a fine toothed comb if they have been in grading for over 2 weeks.

Yes, I was afraid of that, most people who post have been excited they're moving through.

Exactly this. 75/100 of my 7/22 submissions have been in GEI since mid-November. 25/100 were shipped back on 11/15 and my 50 8/10 have been back about a week. 

[qlow]

question for anyone currently in G/E/I

have you been charged yet? or still waiting for a charge?

 

trying to gauge how fast/slow it'll move after being charged.
