Instead of Newton Rings? No way!
“Newton Rings...your guarantee that it’s authentic CGC!”

Seriously, I have no animosity towards CGC, I just like a laugh.

Yeah but problem with CGC is that they keep arranging the private signings and asking ppl so mark the box with the initials of the signing so those boxes can be opened first. That is why it takes 1 month+ for normal submission boxes to be opened.

I have a box delivered on April 9th - not yet opened

@poka this is spot on perfect! They could change that in a hearbut they won't because it's a business draw.

Have I told you about the time I dropped off 3,000 comics at SDCC? Scifinator private msg quote post Address this user
@DrWatson Well, the 3,200 comic tsunami I dumped on them at the 2019 SDCC may have had a little to do with it.

No, its not. It shows a complete failure to understand the problem.


Now I don't know if this is true, but somebody said that CGC is getting between 5000 and 15000 books every single day. That is every single day. If that's true , and again I have no idea if it is, that is absolutely insane. Now I absolutely love Marc Silvestri and he is one of my favourite artists of all time. But how many books do you actually expect that he's going to get? Let's say he gets 2500 books. If cgc is receiving between 25,000 and 75000 books per week, what kind of delay do you think those 2,500 books are really going to cause?
I'm not happy about the growing turnaround times either, but I don't think that the Signature Events are really the cause of the delay nor do I think they make a serious impact on turnaround times. I could be wrong of course, but logic suggests that it's really a drop in the bucket.

Me, I'm just going to send my books and forget about him. When they're finished they're finished and they'll come home soon. I just hope they have a fun time on vacation. I think TAT right now is in the 4-5 month realm door to door. Thats ok with me.

It's the same as flushing the toilet in Australia, it spins the opposite way in the states.

Still remember the Simpsons episode set in Australia where the U.S embassy had a device connected to the toilet so it spun the say way as the states 😅

Masculinity takes a holiday. EbayMafia private msg quote post Address this user
If CGC is really ramping up significantly it means they are banking on the current market demand continuing into the future. Ramping up for a 500% spike in demand that only lasts 7-8 months can have devastating effects on a company and their reputation when everyone gets laid off. At my company we were able to stop the growth of TAT's by looking for bottlenecks in the product offering. We eliminated the 20% of our product line that was most problematic and most likely to limit our weekly installation capacity. So now our backlog holds steady as we turn away 20% of the customer inquiries. But it's the 20% that was most problematic for us anyway. I'm not buying the argument that these private signings aren't a part of the problem. Seems to me that they disrupt processes and divert resources pretty much every step of the way.
