Have I told you about the time I dropped off 3,000 comics at SDCC? Scifinator private msg quote post Address this user
From July 28th - Aug 1st, looks like you can get 10% off (entire submission) plus a 6 week TAT! Cheers to those who can go, I will have to pass.

10% the entire submission price AND 6 week TAT?? That's a great special. I wish I could make it.

Hopefully they offer something similar for ECCC or Washington state Summer Con #3)

I’m sorry I don’t understand this move at all. If they’re showing me 15 weeks and offering Chicago 6, I’m out. I really hope there’s some details I’m not aware of to make this more fair to loyal customers like myself.

@EbayMafia Looks like it is a Beckett call as this is for their National Convention. Remember, this is for VSP submissions, not regular submissions. Who does the VSP? Beckett.

From the wording it looks like all submissions, including VSP.

@Sebastsk8 - This is interesting, after reading your comment, I re-clicked the link, and voila, the whole page is very different and, the verbiage of the CBCS ad is re-written and yes, looks like you may be correct now.

I'm THINKING that CBCS didn't care for the guaranteed 6 weeks either. This is TOTALLY my guess.




Edit - picture replaced to add note on bottom.

Or perhaps they will just do the 6 weeks on VSP submissions.

But it seems we can contact customer service and can send books early and take advantage of the promo?

So how does this work??
Do I just mail to Dallas - do I just write in 10% off?? is there a promo code?
If that's the case - why not just do a normal code - this seem bass ackwards!!

I have a number of books that could use VSP - just got a signed McFarlane in the mail today!!

I would go with the CBCS ad. Only grading and encapsulation.

I really hope so because the 6 weeks guarantee certainly hit me like a slap in the face.

@ebaymafia - Like I guessed, I didn't think that CBCS was consulted on the 6 week guaranteed TAT and now it appears to be off the table.

Looks like it's only open to show attendees:L

Apologies but this is only for submissions submitted at the show.

yup - customer service just responded the same to me.

Someone realllllly needs to get their sh!t together as far as a communications department.

Why say "Can't make it to the show. We can take in your comics early" if it's only for in person drop offs?? - it's not very clear if ya know what I mean.....a lay person thinks - hey! I can't make it to the show..maybe I can send my books in!

Similarly with one site saying 10% off entire submission (including VSP) and the other saying just grading fees.

Candidly, the discount are irrelevant to me when TATs are at 18 weeks and growing. They should have raised prices 8 weeks ago to prevent this. I’m at the point where I’d prefer to pay 10% more and get back to a 6 week TAT. Actually been there for a while now.
