@dielinfinite - You must have pull. I just checked mine and it shows no points, even though I have had 87 books graded since I joined.

@esaravo @infinityG @poka I don't think they've counted the retroactive points yet. I had a single modern ship out today so that would account for my 32 points ($16x2 points) but not the dozens of other books I've submitted with my membership so far this year

@dielinfinite

indeed, i'm guessing the same thing. They just received 11 books from me but it doesn't reflect that.

Mine says 96 points. So they must have flipped that switch a few weeks ago. Pretty sure that doesn't include any retro points.

This is kind of scary and funny at the same time...

The points probably kick in after the books ship and the order is marked complete.

@dielinfinite I think you just won the #cbcsbox $100 gift cert, too. Lucky day for you! 😁

I'm actually a little surprised that the account points weren't mentioned in the newsletter. I thought they'd timed it specifically for the newsletter

@dielinfinite They always announce stuff after they released it, like the Raw Grade. lol

They're not fully functioning yet, so there is no mention.
It's close.

Because when we announce things ahead of time and it ends up being a much larger project than we anticipated, priorities pop up, etc, we have people complaining because it's taking too long (and rightfully so).

If we announce after it happens, we minimize complaints.

At 16 points per slab, only 623 more to go before you're into "bonus points"...whatever that means.

@Drogio From the Program description:

"During any one-year membership period, if the number of points accumulated exceeds 10,000, the member will begin receiving 4 points per dollar spent, rather than the normal 2 points, for the remainder of that year."

I don't know how they got 96 points for me if it's 2 points per dollar.

I should have more points than that just from the order I got back.

So you basically get $1 back for every $50 you spend. And if you spend $5000 you get $2 for every $50 you spend....for the "remainder of that year."

Anyone know when that "year" would officially start to know when it would officially end? Is it by calendar year or when your membership started/was renewed?

Anyone here willing to admit they spend $5000 in a calendar year grading comics?

Has anyone had their membership expire but they're still getting membership prices?

I'm pretty sure mine expired but I'm still submitting with membership prices and it still shows silver in my profile. Am I a lifetime member?

I've submitted 4 orders so far this year and have zero points which makes sense since my membership expired but I'm still getting membership prices. Hmm...
