5 Items, Economy with subs
Received: 2/18/22
Shipped: 2/21/22
Crazy fast...but! Check out this sub, 3 10 subs, with a 8.5 Centering, got a 9?
Was hoping it would come out to a 9.5?
CGC Cert #4009319004
 
 

My math would say 10 + 10 + 10 + 8.5 = 38.5/4 = 9.625. Seems like a 9.5 to me? Perhaps centering is weighted higher than other subs?

CGC will only bump up .5 of the lowest grade. They don't go by finding the average..

Also if the two lowest grades match, that's the grade no matter what. So a card with sub grades 10 5.5 5.5 10 will be a 5.5.

I'm not sure where to place this question. I made two submissions:

- 1x CGC registered on 5/1/21 (economy + subs, bulk of 20 cards)

- 1x CGC registered on 8/1/21 (economy + subs, bulk of 80 cards)

When approximately can I expect the return?

You should have received both of these by now... Economy has like a 10-15 day turn around now.

Thanks for the insight.

Yes. Just read back through the last 2 pages of this thread. Multiple people have posted economy info. As CGC always says, turn around times are always a wild guess.

Awesome I'll be sure to update as well.

Got back my Bulk received 08/13 recently and got my first 10 (modern hyper rare) and got four 9.5's on early EX era reverse holos (english). Lot's of cards they've give 8.5's on got 9's too.

I think CGC finally listened to us and realized their grading scale is literally their biggest competition and are grading a little easier (hopefully). I still think they need to start giving 10's on vintage holos to really get a lot of us submitting again, but if this return is indicative of a change in the grading room it's definitely a move in the right direction.

Econ - Received 2/2/22, Shipped 2/22/22
Mildly satisfying to see it all match up, and on a Twoday as well :P

6 cards with subgrades in the sub

Received package 2/26/22. Only disappointment was they refused to grade the metal Pikachu card because it was in the first stages of chipping on an edge.
