CGC's turnaround

[meshuggah]

They've definitely improved

 

Well my latest invoice went to shipped today! Here's a breakdown of how it went.

13 May - received

27 June - verified

12 July - scheduled for grading and then graded

17 July - quality control and then shipped

This is a vast improvement from just earlier in the year. At Baltimore Comic Con last year I submitted 3 books for signature and it took just over 4 months to get them back. This hopefully is good news for all of you with orders still out or getting ready to submit one.

 

Now, I'm not as cool as some of you and I have to look at my grades. I'm a little disappointed, but not surprised, by two of them. I was hoping for higher like we all do but I was pretty much spot on with my guess of what they'd receive. So heres the list.

Batman: The Killing Joke - 9.8

Batman Adventures 12 - 9.4

Avengers vs X-Men 11 (1:100 variant) - 9.8

Wolverine 1 (1988) - 9.0

 

Already looking forward to submitting something else. But it will probably be a little bit since I just sent off some books for SDCC. Also looking forward to hearing about everyone else's submissions.

as I have said many times, I pay the extra 10 bucks for fast track.........but one time with 29 books (sent to BagoFleas) I did normal and do not anticipate even seeing a schedule for grading for 4 months. Even at a Comicon I will venture towards the Fast Track........Anticipation makes the Heart Fondly Met..sometimes

I am glad to hear grading is faster imposed.....thanks for the update

I fast tracked my sdcc order. I couldn't do 29 though. That's a lot of extra cash.

I really do wish I could Fast Track with every submission. About the only time I will though is if it involves Signature Series or Sketched upon Blank Variants. When looking at the big picture for as many Moderns as I send in that's usually around $150 extra bucks at 15 at a time.

 

Right now I am really hoping your right with the speed up. I just wished my books wouldn't sit at Received for so long. Roughly 45 Calendar days for one group and 37 Calendar days for the other two.

K man - I fast track pretty much the same as you. As you can see in my breakdown I sat at received for awhile. After that it went quite fast. I can't wait to actually have them in my hands.

Most recent order.... 84 business days...

How long ago was that? This was was 46 due to two holidays in there and not counting delivery time.

Well my books came in today. Below are some pictures that will be uploaded to my sets. They'd already be there but the books aren't registered yet so I can't add them. I'm guessing the guys were all busy getting the registry awards out. Congrats to all who received awards.
