MST prescreen

Received May 26

Current status received...

 

Yawn. 107 calendar days and we keep on trucking.

 

With the time necessary for the prescreen do you expect the books by Halloween? Seems like 5 months would be the norm for those types of submissions.

 

It used to be about +3 weeks for prescreen...now it seems like almost 2 months :sorry: . At this rate not likely, normally about 2-3 weeks once the book goes to verified for each stage which means I am waiting another 6-9 weeks (V to SFG, SFG to Graded, Graded to Ship). They are really hammering you to Fast Track books.

 

MFT + Prescreen is just over a month

MST + Prescreen 5 months...I don't think that is cutting TAT's (like fast track is supposed to) in half but it is what it is. Just glad they can't charge my credit card and get a 5 month loan on me.

 

:censored: I've always gotten prescreens back in a little over 3 months for MST. Now it's 5 months? doh!

 

I guess I should forget about the one received 7/31 until next year.

6/9/15 and still only received

5/4/15 and still only graded

 

It helps if you put what tier of service you submitted the books under. :)

 

Does it make it better if it's MST? Nearly 4 1/2 months and only graded. 3+ months and not even verified?

Yes. It does. You should be calling them.

I sent in my first "older" books (at least for me). I have a Conan 2 and SS 4 graded from onsite, bought on the floor of the show, but for the first time submitted older comics from my collection. They were received 9/15 for Economy Fast Track, along with 6 books for MFT. So with 3 Doc 169s, I am fearing the PLOD suddenly. I have no reason to be fearful, but it has suddenly gripped me that you just never know with books of this age. The Conan 14 came from an old writer so I am not worried about that, but these 3 Docs could be interesting! I have a 7.5 now and am hoping at least one will be better than that.

Looks like their time between receipt and verification has been increasing while the time between verification and scheduled for grading has been decreasing.

 

I was going to say that I hope CGC will improve some now that major con season is over - but then I looked at their calendar and they are at shows every week through the first week of December.
