My hopes are it happens soon. You Canadian folks have gotten the shaft from this ordeal. It will be nice to see you folks get your books in a timely manner

Going where nobody says hello, they don't talk to anybody they don't know
Don't go back to Oakville
Don't go back to Oakville
Don't go back to Oakville and waste another year.

Wow. What a difference shipping directly to Dallas.

I got an actual email from them saying they received it! A day earlier than projected too!

It prompted me to login to my Dashboard and saw they were ready to bill, so I initialized that as well.

Now there will be the long, long wait for pressing, but so far I'm very happy with the process compared to my last submission through the Canadian offices.

Consumer Fast Pass marked received on 6/11 entered grading today. Looks like they might be catching up vs the posted TAT times for the tier.

Send in more once there is another promotion and understand that this is how the collectibles grading industry is now and be fortunate we aren't trading card collectors.

@Nearmint67

It definitely won't be done if you don't send it in. As fir the turn around times, it could be worse. More than 7 months at CGC for magazine grading. No pressing no signature just grading. And it's still only in queue....

I finally got thinking about sending in some early Garbage Pail Kids cards I own, not at looking about a year without them. I like them nice and safe in a closet when I look at them once every two months.

No doubt about that!
Getting them ready for August submission.
Either at or before the Orlando Mega-Can.

Daddy - Daughter - Day
Can't wait.
I know several of the artists and enjoy shooting the breeze with them and introducing my 16 year old to them all.
Tooooo much fun...

I thought George Perez was done signing so that is great if he's making an appearance.

My tracking also said delivered very close to this date (don't remember exact date), also still no confirmation that they have even received them yet. Order (21-1820B29) still only shows "Submitted". Hopefully this means I'll get a confirmation soon as well?

It starts the business day after the books were physically delivered to Dallas. If you submit at a con, it is the Wednesday after the con.

Yeah he did, but he was scheduled to do his last con here in Orlando in March of 2020.
But Covid sidelined that.
So now he is honoring that scheduled appearance. Yay...lol...

I missed the July 4th promo for 105 off.
Didn't have an books ready to go.
It was like a 5 or 6 day window to send them in.
No worries though. I will be submitting in August at the Mega-Con...

Nice to know they are there. I submitted on June 1st and they arrived in Oakville June 3rd.

Order # 21-1DF72F1

- New Mutants #98
- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures #1

I check every other day to see if the status has changed. Just want the piece of mind that the books are in Dallas.

I get it is a marathon not a sprint so I am mostly patient, just little nervous about the trip from Canada to Dallas because it is out of my control and cannot be tracked.

Cheers
