Yes, several months ago CGC redesigned the online portal. There was quite a bit of discussion about the redesign here on the boards with everyone agreeing it was worse that before. It doesn't view well on smart phones and smaller tablets. But the worst is what you noted. CGC eliminated a couple of previous report points on the progress of our books. Now there is only  scheduled for grading, grading/QC and shipped/finalized.  We've lost the received, verified and grading points.  So basically the redesign gives customers less information, less convenience. 

We still have "received".  My books have been sitting at received for 11 weeks now, waiting for CCS to press them.

Yes, I recently learned that "received" still applies to con submissions and apparently CCS as well. Shipped books move straight to "scheduled for grading".

Thank you for the clarification. I've not seen "received" since the redesign.  That it appears with convention submissions and CCS submissions (which I don't do) makes sense.

My convention sub never said received, although I have seen others posts that say dealer accounts still see the received status. 

So, I guess maybe this is a better way to explain it and maybe I was assuming. It seems that if you submit online, no "received". But, if you fill out a paper submission form "received" status can occur.

Ah okay that makes sense - I filled out the online submission form before I dropped it off at the con.

Standard is actually a higher service level and they aren’t modern books

ok and ? Did you specify that in your initial post about submitting during Mega-con ? NO, you didn't. So how would i know that? 

anyways blue labels are now graded as of today. No movement with my signature series books though.

Curious, which tier did you submit? 

2 Silver Age books at the Economy level. I have 6 more books submitted that same day at the value level and they are still not graded. They told July is likely for them.

Fast Track Value:

Delivered 5/1 (says post office)

Scheduled for grading 5/8

Today 6/12: Still in SFG but the category in the detailed list has been filled in as Universal for all books.  (8 books by the way, 7 SA X-men and 1 GA Marvel Family.)

Thanks. That tier was going to be my guess. I have books in the same tier that have been SFG since 4/11 and I've seen 4/3 SFG books already graded and shipped a while ago. However, your books were shipped out after those 4/3 SFG books even though they were received earlier. 

My books have been sitting with the category filled in for almost two weeks without being moved to Grading/Quality control. Hopefully they move to grading soon.

Figure I put in my most recent submission.

Economy - 1
Modern - 3 (Have them in my hands)
Modern with Pressing - 3 (new to this, confident 2/3 will benefit from pressing, looking to see what happens with 3rd)

Submitted on 3/9 (shipped following day)

CGC - Received on 3/16

CCS - Invoiced on 5/29

For the remaining Economy and Moderns, status is still "Received" with a received date of "3/16".  

I assume CGC hasn't received the pressed books yet from CCS?

Update:

1 Economy has now been updated to Received on 6/11 and is now Scheduled for Grading.

3 Moderns have now been updated to Received on 6/12 and is now Scheduled for Grading..

Edited by Capn17
Updated 3 moderns to scheduled.

Another I was not expecting at the least to get done until the end of the month.

Dropped off at Fan Expo Dallas - 5/4/2019

Received - 5/13/2019

Scheduled for Grading - 6/3/2019

Gradinig/QC - 6/5/2019

Finalized - 6/7/2019

Shipping - 6/7/2019

This was a 3 book Modern SS sub that didn't have a facilitator involved (the previous one had a facilitator involved for one of the signatures). :whee:

Still have 4 more submissions out there, only 1 of them doesn't have CCS services linked to it, it is a Magazine Modern SS.  Other three I am not expecting before like October.  :headbang:

So I am right there with you but this is my 1st submission - Sig Series Modern

Dropped off at Fan Expo Dallas - 5/5/2019

Received - 5/11/2019

Scheduled for Grading - 5/31/2019

Gradinig/QC - 6/3/2019

Finalized - 6/5/2019

Shipping - 6/6/2019 (tomorrow)

I was not expecting this to ship until at least the end of June, this is a pleasant surprise!

Now I wait for the other 5 submissions from the show, 1 is in SFG and another is in Grading/QC, others are at CCS. :roflmao:

Received both of these back without any issues to the boxes (one yesterday and one today).  One has Newton Rings on front and back, only visible at extreme angles though, other three are flawless.

So what does it mean if I got the invoices for my books from CCS?  Does that mean they finished them?  If so I may have broken the pressing record...

I received my pressing invoice for one of mine I believe when it went "ready for pressing" essentially.

It was submitted on 5/4. Set to received in my account on 5/14.  Invoice received on 6/5, which shows invoiced from CCS on 5/14. Today it switched the Received date to 6/13.

This is a Fast Track Modern.  Which when I submitted I had an estimated completion of 7/24 (for both CCS - 35 and CGC - 15).  It might get done a little quicker than I expected, maybe not. (shrug)

Either way I think you get invoiced when they start the pressing process.

Coulda woulda shoulda!
