So now that we are well past May. Is there going to be any news cause I’ve held out for 6 months now for a update on these metal cards. 

We are currently finalizing a solution and hope to provide an update soon. Once we have fully tested this solution, we will make an announcement regarding it and let everyone know their metal cards can be safely encapsulated.

They will most likely hold them for 1-2 months before mailing them back to you ungraded.

Bump. Any update on a timeline for the new slabs?

I posted this about 2 weeks go.

No certain ETA. But there's a concept in the mail to us right now. We should hopefully know how that works by next week.

@CGC Mikeany updates on the metal card encapsulation. I want to send my cards in before my subscription with cgc ends but I’m afraid that the encapsulation may take another 5 months because this was first an issue back in may this year. Please let us know when you think these will ACTUALLY be able to be graded, encapsulated and shipped. Thank you

We are working with 2 solutions.  They will need to go through the drop test and shipping test.  That means they will have to be shipped to someone, and shipped back to us for examination.  I believe we are getting close to be able to encapsulate these.

My takeaway from following this topic throughout this whole year is that safely encapsulating metal cards is an incredibly difficult process. I think it's best to consider them ungradable for now, and when CGC eventually drops the news of a solution it will be a nice surprise.

@CGC MikeAlso wondering if there is any update on the second test for shipping. When I was told, “ we’ll keep you posted” I expected maybe an automated message update once or twice a month. May be a good idea next time so your customers aren’t left in the dark begging for answers.

Hi

I believe the shipping test went well but, we are making a few minor adjustments to improve the holder.   It will be at least a few more weeks.
