 If the viagra is working you should be well over a 9.8.

| https://www.cbcscomics.com/grading-pressing-price https://www.cbcscomics.com/membership Of course, I still get the pop-up on the main page about the price increase for 2-Day. There's also an inconsistency where the pricing page says 'same day' but the membership page says 'super express'. CBCS needs new, better web people. Including some kind of UX input. Looks like the membership gets you basically a flat 10% off grading, with a couple exceptions. Modern is $4 more than New for non-members but the same for members, so a bigger discount there. Vintage Plus is actually more expensive for members if you send Standard or Express. Premium is an especially good deal if you send Standard; it's 40% off. There's no pressing price on the general pricing page, but there is on the member page. Maybe you have to be a member to get pressing now? That would potentially help with the backlog. The TAT page and the members pricing page both have TATs and they, of course, disagree with each other. The higher tier TATs are the same but Standard is lower on the members page for grading and higher on the TAT page for pressing. As I'm typing this, the pricing and membership pages aren't available from some other pages. Maybe they're fixing things. |

| I can't check on membership price because the first thing it has you do is create an account or log in and I already have a membership. Maybe someone who's lapsed can check? | ||

| So it looks like 2 day Modern is gone. This is the service I used the most. | ||

| It kinda looks like you have to be a member to submit magazine sized and pressed. That would make sense | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by Vrishnak I think the equivalent now would be the express, which is 14 days. I was going to submit via 2-day (was a 2-week turnaround) the other day but opted to wait until the new tiers/prices came out. Looks like it's 5 bucks cheaper now as well. I imagine there will be trade offs for folks with the new tiers/prices/turnarounds... Edit: Just tried to start a submission and looks like I got a 10% discount on the Modern Express (so 36 instead of 40). |

| So it looks like 2-day is now "Express Plus", or "Super Express", Based on the posted TAT. Quite a price increase, unfortunately. Also, I assume fast tracking is gone? I tried the "click here to find out more about add-on services" link but it links to the sales team's page.  As stated above... CBCS needs web help. Edit: I had some info incorrect so I deleted. |

Quote:Originally Posted by chrispcola After I typed all that I did more digging and I noticed they've changed TATs to business days. So, the only TATs listed that compare to 2-day are the 1-day and 5-day (Super Express and Express Plus). So.. price goes from $46 to $75 for 5-day, or $250 for "Same Day" or "Super Express", depending which web page you're looking at. |

| About to submit and saw this: Note: Submissions with multiple grading tiers will ship based on the grading tier with the longest turnaround time. Submissions with Express tiers will ship independently and separately from all other grading service levels. This is only my second submission so not sure if they separated out the quicker tiers before... |

| @Bronte I don't know if it's right but it looks plausible. So I guess a membership gets you the discount but also access to magazines and pressing. I suppose that's worth the extra price; I always got the Bronze membership. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by chrispcola I think what that's saying is if you submit a Modern book along with a Vintage book... They will ship back on the slower 224 business days for Modern. And all the "express" tiers must be handled separately. So to get vintage back sooner, submit separate from moderns, etc. |

The price increases aren’t too bad except for the witnessed signature fee which went from $5 to $20! Basically matching the cost of grading a New tier, which is ridiculous. I haven’t found pricing for VSP but that’s to close to the old VSP pricing and Slab-Only,assuming it is the same service as before with one VSP signature included is a much more attractive option now    |

| @sborock Okay, so I see a Witnessed Signature fee of $20 on the pricing page but a $5 ASP fee on the Add-Ons page What is the difference? Does it mean witnesses at conventions are now $20? Or does it mean if I submit a book for ASP (say a mail-in commission or I was an approved witness at a convention) it now Costs $5,$20, or $25 extra? |

| @Sigur_Ros Yeah but now it’s 5 days moneyback guaranteed TAT as opposed to the 2-month TAT it was seeing previously and there is now a $40 guaranteed 2-week service as well I’m waiting to see how the Witnessed signature services shake out. |

Quote:Originally Posted by dielinfinite Right, but it did go way up. Couple weeks ago I got a 2-day back in 10 days from drop-off at post office until back in my hands. The one before that was 8 days. Never heard of anyone waiting 2 months for 2-day. I'm curious about the different VSP programs. Seems only some peoples' questions get answered tho |

| @Sigur_Ros Fair enough, I was mistaken about the turnaround time but in the turnaround time thread people are reporting a little over two weeks from receipt at CBCS to shipping, which is still slower and more expensive than the new guaranteed 2-week service | ||

| Witness signature went from $5 to $20?! Does that include grading fees or is that additional... What about Authorized Witness? I tested the Canadian Invoice and it still came up as $6 Canadian for Signatures. |
