PDidds Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 There used to be a thread here and I can't find it anymore. It's been over a year. No updates from CGC - just passing the back to Celebrity Authentics. In the mean time, I've missed the opportunity to get my Woverine #1 signed my Miller, Claremont. - Twice !! Honestly -- CGC should cancel the signing and resolicit the event if it ever gets scheduled again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PDidds Posted February 12 Author Share Posted February 12 (edited) S-Man -- they've told me multiple different dates multiple times for multiple excuses. Mostly they throw Celebrity Authentics under the bus and say it's their problem and that CGC is absolved of any responsibility in the matter. All I know - I sent my book to CGC. CGC took my money. CGC isn't compensating anyone for the excessive delays. CGC isn't communicating with their customers about it in any professional manner - I mean just post an update once in a while "we apologize for the continued delay...". CGC won't allow me to have the book sent to other signings while they have possession of it. It's just locked away in the Hugh Jackman closet. So, I'm just wanting to know when he's coming out of the closet. (lol) Edited February 12 by PDidds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s-man Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Did you contact CA? That is who has my books and sent me the confirmations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdgray71 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 It's kinda outta CGC's hands at this point. Celebrity Authentics is the one who is hosting this event, not CGC, so it kinda makes sense that they would refer you to CA. I actually just chatted with someone at CA a few minutes ago and he told me that Hugh is "currently confirmed to complete his signing at the end of March". Not sure if that means he's "actually" confirmed to sign in March or if that is just another generic delay statement. But, at any rate, that is the latest update from CA. I do agree that CGC should also be providing regular updates as well instead of leaving customers wondering what the heck is going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PDidds Posted February 26 Author Share Posted February 26 If CGC had any pull with CA -- They'd get something in blood and stone from HUGH JACKAMN and commit him to appear with the big 50th Anniversary group signing with Miller and Claremont etc Gator Guru 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This may be the only time to get his signature for awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattBatt Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Idk if this helps at all but I preordered a book from CA for this signing and it was a year ago. on december 5th 2023 I got an email from CA saying: “Everyone's patience will soon be rewarded as Hugh Jackman has confirmed that he will be completing his signing with us in February (he wraps shooting Deadpool 3 late January). Hugh has said this would be his ONLY signing with all of his proceeds being donated to charity. Get ready to take your collection to the next level with Hugh Jackman!” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This may be the only time to get his signature for awhile. They generally don’t set a date until all submissions are in because they don’t know how much time it will take until they know how many submissions there are, so they can plan for transport (if needed), staffing, room, payment, and other logistical issues. For a big movie star (and really most celebrities), 1 hr vs 3 hrs vs 8 hrs is a huge difference in planning. Also this is not an excuse that excuses all the delays and lack of communication Edited March 13 by revat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think CA ever got a hard day for the signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
