If this is true and its 8 weeks from that email then my order will be at 39 weeks delivered back to me from mailed May 27 2021 received by CBCS June 4 2021 no press all modern 2 VSP. Is that typical of this year anyone else finding it that off TAT? It was at 17 weeks when I sent in.

@dartelum Yes, everyone's TATs are slow this year. I got a modern with press order from the end of February in December. If you went through Oakville instead of direct to Dallas you have to add some extra shipping time on both sides, too.

@dartelum

I'm the same but with no VSP. No press, just modern grading tier which was around 17 weeks like you said at the time they were received.
Delivered June 8 which puts them at 31 weeks today.

Me and you are in the same boat. Same day delivered and just straight modern.
But mine doesnโ€™t show heat seal.

- Mailed out May 24th, 2021
- Arrived on June 2nd, 2021
- Marked Received on July 2nd 2021
- Noticed it in Grading when clicking on the invoice number, and marked Labels on the Invoice PDF on Oct. 28, 2021 (not sure when it actually was marked to those, since I didn't check those until that date).

Hopefully sometime in the very near future, I will get those books back, but not holding my breath.


As of 12:57PM today, looks like my books have been graded, and now in the production area to be slabbed. No grades listed or any of that, but it's nice to finally have an update. Hopefully the books will be home soon.

38 weeks and counting. Not sure how my May batch is showing "shipping" while my April batch is showing "grading."

I mean, come on. All the excuses are redundant and absolutely ridiculous at this point.

@Nuffsaid111 - I have seen it. 4th Qtr of 2020. CBCS had cleared itself of my dump truck SDCC submission, got past the Pressing Ops move from FL to TX, recovered from the initial shut downs for the Pandemic.

Then, all hell broke loose. The new CBCS sonicweld encasements started catching eyes and attention. People needed/wanted to spend money on something since they weren't vacationing, going out for dinners and movies, thus comic speculation kicked into high gear. This led to cgc deciding to raise prices which further increased CBCS utilization.

4th Qtr 2020, the dream of future past.

It shall return. #soon.

Mine were received Mar 21 no fast pass or fast press. I did have my books checked if they needed to be pressed and had one book VSP. Here is to hoping not much longer.

All- Please DM me with questions about orders and I will try and help.

I did several weeks ago, along with 3 emails to customer service, and 3 unanswered phone calls.

I submitted 6 books to Canadian office, has been (in processing) since July 8 2021.
no pressing, no screening, no fast pass, no nothing.

at the time of submission TAT was 'less than 8 weeks', now at 27 and from seeing other's experiences I've got a long way to go before anyone even looks at them.

pretty disappointed, even with 'it's a new world' expectations.

SBorock, help me out some, at least then I can share my experience so that other's can manage their own expectations (instead of what you told us to expect)

So I take it my late July order is gonna take a minute? Has anyone had better luck with 2 day Modern? I just had two books that were dropped off today in Dallas. Also I'm doing my first signing which was also dropped off today, should I just assume a year on that one?

@JustinMabooty - pretty simple actually. In normal times, it is the usual estimated time frame for which modern comics are graded as they are put ahead of the lower cost normal tier. But then, my guess is you know that and your comment is likely just rhetorical. ๐Ÿ˜‰

The 2 day is actually, as an example, Monday to Wednesday. Or Wednesday to Friday.

Y'know ....
Monday June 20th to Wednesday, January 12th
or
Wednesday July 28th to Friday, January 14th.

@Scifinator

It was obviously rhetorical. It's like advertising to be a 24 hour plumber with a two week waiting list.
Why not just change the name to "two week" or whatever the actual TAT is? Seems a bit misleading to call it something it clearly isn't.

It doesn't take two days which was my whole point. Thanks for the explanation of what two days is though.

The funniest TAT imo is the pressing. I remember submitting my stuff to get pressed back when TAT was 12 weeks and now its a year! My LCS started pressing so I just go through them now for all of it.

Has anyone gotten a recent shipment of books (without pressing)?
If so, what was the CBCS receipt date for your books?

Just trying to get a rough idea of which month 2021 books are starting to ship/deliver.
