I started this thread so it would show up in the announcement box in the list of forums. Some of the announcements there were 3 years old. Just trying to regularly change that box to current stuff.

JMNosser Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 Not sure if this has been asked in another thread, but when I login and go to submission tracking, everything is gone. I'm assuming this is only temporary due to the shutdown in response to Ian. Anyone know for sure? Odda and Masochism 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The area "How should we send your order back to you?" and "Which service do you want to use?" does not work as intended. I select ship with CGC and ground, but when I click enter payment it points to "Ship under my Account/Select carrier." which I cannot get by....its like a glitch. thanks.

Cool Ghoul Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Mike, I appreciate the email from CGC regarding the state of the facility and collectibles, but more importantly, can we get a notification that all staff/employees are safe? Lots of concern for everyone down there. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AntonV Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 Glad to hear everyone is safe & CGC is reopening this week. I’m getting ready to send comics down for an in house signing. Slightly concerned if infrastructure is an issue with shipping. Is there any info or preferred shipper I should be using in the wake of the storm? I’m planning to wait another week or so, allowing things to settle down, before shipping. ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
