CBCS Grade Surprise or Check Online?1522

Collector Thanatos private msg quote post Address this user
Hey everyone, new to the forum and to CBCS. Got my "Grading Completed" email for my first two CBCS submissions, a Green Lantern #1 (1960) and Green Lantern #7 (1960) and the itch to know the grade is eating at me. I like the idea of waiting to find out the grade when I unbox them but my millenial nature says I should just check online. For those of you that have endured this process for awhile, what approach do you take and why?

I check online so I can know if I should speed home or just take my time.

I remember my first CGC orders years ago I wasn't even sure if they could be checked online. I shipped the books off and later on I had a slip from the post office to pick up the box. I found out the grades when I opened the box it was always fun and back then with my grading some pleasant and sometimes not so pleasant surprises arouse. I for one say if you can wait try to wait at least for your first one.

I always check online. There's no way I could wait.

Are you the kind of person that wants the surprise of what sex your baby is upon birth. Or do you want to know five months before his/her birth?

Me, I have to know as son as I can know. Impatient.

Yup, couldn't wait. Got the email today and checked. Both GL #1 and #7 received 4.0 grades. Not mad about that.

I check, then re-check "Is it updated?" then check again....
The Waiting, it burns us.

This has been my life since it said the grading completed on Friday. The waiting was miserable.
