Is there any difference on TAT for books that got signed at CBCS? I know CGC expedites the process. Wasn't sure if CBCS did the same.

I am definitely thinking I got very lucky with my order.
To answer your question, these were just regular slow track.
Now with delays at Fedex, it looks like I should have my books back on Monday the 1st.
Hopefully they finish up with your books soon too.

The new "Through Dates" and how they function on a competitor's website to Beckett are very transparent. Has CBCS ever through about adding that feature?

I live in RI and Rhode Islanders eat chili with beans. esaravo private msg quote post Address this user
I am getting a bit disappointed that my last order, shipped Priority on October 26th, is still not showing as anything but submitted/received. I submitted it with the Pressing20 Promo, and it was received by CBCS before the end of October. I was under the impression that those books would have around a 12-week turn-around. In addition, several weeks ago it was reported that all the books received in October had been pressed and submitted for grading, but I have not seen any status change or received any emails. I purposely held off submitting any more books for the February promotion, as I want to see the results for this order first. Is anybody else still waiting for books back, or even a status change, from the October Promo?

@esaravo exact same situation....Oct 15th but no updates etc. would have thought by now they would be through grading. Sounds like shipping is delayed - guess there are still issues after the snow in Texas?? but I have a different order that's been in shipping for close to 50 days now that really should have been out before that storm hit.

Been waiting since last September and still at status ShiptoCanada. Called numerous times and wrote emails and even called the number of S Paulus and nothing, 1 customer service agent told me the other that will receive my package but won’t get an emai with the tracking number?? Strange cause I thought that you always get an email saying your package will be delivered or something, that’s what I remembered, sigh still waiting

@esaravo I got an order back from that promotion; normal pressing but the grading was fast pass. I have a second order from the same time. I got an email on Jan 21 that they moved into the pressing area. I would guess your books have been pressed (it's well over 12 weeks now) but the email notification flaked out.

is it possible to change the return shipping option late in the game??

I have one order in shipping for close to 50days that was supposed to be direct back to me rather than through CBCS Canada but I have another order that should make it to shipping any day now...although no status updates since received...can I just get that 1st order lumped in with the one on it's way and sent back though CBCS Canada??

never mind!! that order that was taking forever just shipped!!!

Everything just about where I thought!! the Mister Miracle with the * I thought would be higher (again 7 or 7.5 like the others) but then...that's why it has the "*" !!!

I'll keep the BB 61, the Forever People 9.0 but the others will all go for sale!! might hang onto the Dracula until Disney does something with Blade though...

@esaravo yup, same here. Took advantage of the pressing promo as well. Order received on 10/22 and still Processing/Received. My order included signature verification so would expect a little longer wait than others.

January 2021 Reholdering order is in Grading (presumably this means being re-holdered).

Hopefully! It seems books are moving just not being updated on dashboards. I hope you guys get updated soon.

And now the delicate dance with FedEx.....got the call saying when the books will be delivered and to expect a bill for clearance charges. Talked to a rep right away and she said they should waive the fees but that I have to wait for the bill first....it's worked in the past but I know some people have had issues with them!!

@KatKomics It seems to be hit and miss with me...most of my charges have been waived but I believe I was made to pay 1 or 2 of them. I was told that when sending books through CBCS Canada those fees will never be incurred. I have a bunch of submissions right now at CBCS that I converted to CBCS Canada to avoid those fees. I argued with FedEx that I can not be at the mercy of how a company chooses to mail me my belongings...that usually works to have FedEx waive the fees.

Scanning these posts i assume CBCS is also behind on modern turnaround? Site claims 4-6 weeks but wanted to confirm that. CGC is close to 4 months so I was considering sending this month's shipment to CBCS. Feedback appreciated.

TAT is how long in-house, and those times are very close to accurate. The problem is you being in Canada and if you try submitting through Oakville (so transport time is a HUGE factor) or you send direct to Texas (increased cost but hopefully better timing).

Because of border issues, if time is important, you should send direct and highlight sending direct back to you. If cost is a bigger issue, use Oakville office and hope you get them back by xmas.

TAT for CGC does not include receiving time. Does CBCS?

Ah, yeah, I don't even pay attention to the times listed on the pricing page.

Not sure what you mean by 'receiving time' exactly, but the TAT starts when CBCS checks in your order. So it isn't when FedEx/whoever delivers it, it's when you get an email.
