| Why isn't that pointed out or reflected in the cost when you initially create the invoice? There's no way I would have paid that much if I knew that was the price! For the whole time they've been sitting there, it was $18 for grading/slabbing, $18 for fast press. To me, that was fair (even if the pressing is a little pricey). | ||

| Books submitted January 3rd, payment processed the week after. Order hasn’t updated since... any way to get any kind of update? | ||

 It was a one trick pony show but always hilarious.

| @bigbill Pressing is way behind...there's likely no update to give. I've got a submission in since Jan 15, no movement. | ||

| Pressing is behind. But there is progress happening Just receive a message from Steve Ricketts that my order from August moved from Pressing to Grading Hopefully grading progresses at a reasonable pace |

| The pressing update is we are working on books received in September. The move to Dallas will benefit the pressing turn around times as we move forward, but it will take time. Much like in 2018 when after the move to Dallas our regular turn around times were 35-30 weeks, we worked to get these under control, and they have been mostly at 5 weeks for over a year now. I know it is frustrating, but know we are focused on this and getting it to a respectable TAT |

| @Darryl_H that's awesome, I want to submit for pressing but long TAT plus grading has me hesitant to do it. | ||

| FYI: My "official" submission date was Sept 17, 2019 (three books to be pressed) and they officially moved to grading today. I handed them off in person Sept 1, so ~39 weeks for pressing. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by Voodoo_Jim With the move to a larger facility in TX,...and subsequent lifting of stay at home order due to the Wuhan China Pandemic, Pressing already seems to be moving along as they have apparently moved from July order to September orders in the past few weeks. And, they may not be fully up to future speed yet. I think this bodes well. |

 Does this mean all the August submissions have gone through? I have not seen any notices of updates. It's still saying "Processing" as it has for 9 months. Can someone at CBCS please look into this? |

| How can any of us be excited about our books being graded when there are fellow members sitting in this forum with August books sitting out there. CBCS needs to do something about this... |

Quote:Originally Posted by brandon77 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 August date you see is the date you filled out the invoice. |
