Iceman399 Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 It looks like Econ is at 14 months from the day they receive the box. Which is approx 280-300 business days...a far cry from the 210 that is posted. ADAMANTIUM, Beastfeast and gadzukes 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lemonman6 Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Pretty sure they’ll be increasing posted economy slow times soon. Next week my 8/10 submission will be at 210 business days from the day of check in/SFG. Pretty sure they won’t magically knock out the massive August backlog in a week or two. Although they used to say the clock starts when it is actually received at their facility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axe Elf Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 And even once it gets through grading it still has to go through finger bending, edge gouging, and hair application before it's ready for defect obscurement labeling and encapsulation orientation determination. So just chill and let everyone do their jobs. FFB, djzombi, jokiing and 2 others 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wall-Crawler Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 (edited) What they have done to their customers with Economy is a real "dirty". By having SO many pre-1975 books just "sitting" somewhere, I guess they are not concerned with any potential increased liability exposure? My 8 books were opened and listed as scheduled for grading, so if the package was opened, where or how exactly are they being protected/stored? how are they keeping track, etc.? Just stacks and stacks and stacks of books in some warehouse? Edited June 8, 2022 by Wall-Crawler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

universal soldier Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Such a joke that the web site continues to state a 210 BD TaT for sloconomy. I'm at 226 and still SFG. djzombi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shadroch Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 I find it hard to believe that the designers of their state of the art facilities designed a secure storage area years ago in anticipation of becoming a defacto storage center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My LCS submitted for me so they did the contact. Sometime in late July seems to be the new target. If I split the difference and they actually ship the book in that time frame I will be at 255 business days so the 210 is just BS.

JJ-4 Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 Reading this thread is all you need to do to understand how this company does business. I joined years ago to understand the process before I started submitting books. I have yet to submit and don't see that changing, quality control going the wrong direction, prices and going up, & year long TAT's, not interested.

iae21 Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 So with these books (including mine) sitting for over a year at CGC's warehouse since first delivered, and then being transported/shuffled to the new warehouse, what assurance do we have that the books were not mishandled in any way?
