current turn around rates at CGC 79 79

[ItsJustRyan]

So they are fairly quick in charging our credit cards but can take up to 6 months to ship our products back? Amazing!

 

Question regarding CGC billing.

 

If I send out an order to be graded today and they receive the books in 3 days, when do they actually charge my credit card?

Depends. I've been charged within 2-3 days of recieving books. Also, I have an invoice there that was received on Monday that hasn't been charged yet. So

 

Stick around longer and your slight sarcasm will become warped insanity with a touch of angry psychosis

They basically require prepayment. I think you are charged between 'received' and 'verified'. And in fairness, if they didn't require prepayment, a lot of orders would be held up when the check (or CC) bounced AFTER they were graded-- then they would have to devote someone full time to chasing money so they could ship books back to us.

Modern FT day 11, still "Graded."

 

 

[Pirate]

WTF happened to the times improving?

Improving at the cost of shoving FT behind?

Unbelievable.

They have had a show a week so that takes off 1 day for each one.

I agree. If the Modern FT has the current turnaround listed as 10 days, that's what it should be.

 

I submitted my first modern FTs, and CGC received them April 3. My submissions still say "Received." Technically, they have until Wednesday until it's past the 10-day turnaround mark.

I just sent in for some reholders - only took them 4 biz days to get them out their doors and into USPS system.

Does this mean Roy still has a chance of winning the bet with Mike?

But if you factor in the double turnaround times on FT, it all evens out to pathetic across the board.

I have to wonder how two eBay sellers have graded copies of the St Louis convention Walking Dead reprints in hand, and have been in hand for almost a week, yet my Modern FT submission sent on the same day is still probably two weeks from being in my hands.

 

Were they really submitted on Walk Through, or is someone getting their stick greased?

 

 

[Topnotchman]

I had two Modern SS fast track orders from Portland, they were received on the same day. They shipped 7 days apart. CGC is not operating under FIFO per tier.

 

I do see Value Tier orders saying scheduled for grading that are in February, many of my December and early January Value Tiers have shipped.

From what I heard, the hold-up is in the slabbing room right now - they have a finite capacity pr. day based on the number of machines they own, which means that orders received on the same day aren't necessarily finalized at the same time. I had 2 modern FT invoices from ECCC - both received on the same day, yet more than a week passed between them shipping the two boxes.
