My 6 Silver and Bronze age books have been at CBCS since August of 2021. Currently the status is Submitted.

I submitted for Fast Pass Pressing and Fast Pass Grading. Of course my credit card was charged back in August, 2021.

Can anyone tell me their turnaround time experience of similar submission and what I can expect to receive my books? Customer Service has been no help. Just boilerplate responses with no detail.

Thanks, all the best!

My submission from May of last year just got shipped out. It was Modern tier, no press/fast pass. According to TATs as presented on the website, your submission should take a few weeks longer than mine due to pressing, even though you opted for fast pass. I'd say you still have a ways to go, but be patient even though I know that's tough. There's such a logjam for grading nowadays and every successful movie or entertaining teaser/trailer brings in a new wave of submissions. That's just the way it is.

I don’t think you put it a better way

I have been meaning to put a sub together, but I’m leaning toward actually reading some of those books. Either I’m sure I’m a year plus to get them back.

@HulkSmash I’m pretty sure we’ll be seeing 2-year turnarounds for pressed books pretty soon. Pressing alone is estimated at 50 weeks and grading at 25. Assuming both are underestimates, I wouldn’t be surprised to see 2-year waits in the near future

Ouch. I'm hoping we get some new graders in to start cutting down on TATs before that happens.

My small order of 4 books was received June 5, 2021.

Modern Press, grade, Verified signatures. I should have paid for fast pass. My bad.

Still no progress beyond “Received”.

a cut down in the nonsense speculation would help a lot, but good for CBCS for the job security.

Yes. It. Would. Can't say I haven't sent a few things in because I have multiples and it's hot now so sell ASAP, but I'm not talking about 30 books, I'm talking about 3, and it's always stuff that I was planning on getting graded anyway.

Currently it insane
