Just an observation...

Going by the "signed by..." date vs the "Grade Date", it appears appears grading is done approximately 4 months after they're signed. I've never done a signing before ... is this correct?

Not in general, no. Especially for in-house signings.

In house signings usually promise 6 weeks no press and 8 weeks with a press, TAT, for signed books.

If it wasn't signed at an in-house signing specifically, then it would just have the TAT for whatever tier of book they are (thumbsu regardless of "when they were signed" :cheers:

This, and more extreme examples of irrevocably damaging a book, are why I don't send any of my golden age books in.

encapsulating books IMO is a very big gamble

No doubt. If CGC doesn't maim your book, they my get the label wrong, or have scratches on the case, or send you the wrong book entirely.

I had a Hulk 180/181 label swap (shown earlier in this thread). From an original walkthrough, it took 4 weeks to swap the labels back, however, I'm not sure if they even did that b/c now UPS has lost the package.

So @CGC Mike: Who do I contact at CGC, and how, to get them to open a UPS claim to so UPS can attempt to look for my missing comics?
