50 minutesSteveRicketts (8972): Aside from a few large orders that are being processed in-tandum, I believe all orders from August and before are pressed. Your order was not received at our office until 9/11. The September date you see is the date you filled out the invoice.

Now, you wait all weekend for Monday, click back in several times throughout Monday, Tuesday, etc seeing if you can glimpse the grades prior to the "Shipped" email. So far, this cheat has enabled me to see grades three times before the official notification. Out of about 2 dozen shipments, so, doesn't usually work.

23 daysdielinfinite (12791): An addendum to the Slab-Only post above: If you have a signed slab-only book and you want it graded after the fact, you add the book to the invoice as a normal blue label and then on the invoice just write a note to the effect of “keep verified red label signature.” So in essence you’re only paying whatever the grading fees would be for the book and not repaying any sort of fees for the red label, since you’ve already paid for the...

3 yearsJesse_O (16520): What does a checkmark (asterisk online) by the grade mean? In rare cases, a comic book will look much better than the given grade. In these rare cases, a Check Mark will be placed on the label by the numerical grade. The best way to understand why a specific comic book received a Check Mark designation is to refer to the graders' notes. Example: a comic is graded 8.0. However, the covers are such that it looks like a 8.5 or a 9.0. CBCS...

Anyways, Stephen sent me a message last year that somehow got buried or I forgot about it (most likely). I got back to him and we reached a deal.

When the total value goes over 500 is when the insurance cost begins to rise.(If I am remembering right) Also, 30 is the max in a box. I alway send in multiples of 30 so I get a fu)l box worth. By sending 30 my shipping averages to 2 dollars or less per book to North Carolina. I am fine with that. Hope this helps someone.
