| they get entered as submitted once they arrive to the main CBCS office in Texas. you will be waiting a while with current TAT times. TAT has not been 8 weeks in very long, you are in for like 8 month wait but check out the TAT thread to see current updates from people | ||

| Do they send you any emails or you just have to look on your account. Any idea long it takes to get to Texas |

| it can take a while but mine was around the border just opening up. they have someone come over to take care of it so it can take a good long time to get an update. The process requires a lot of patience but you will see updates on your account dashboard when it happens and i think i did get an email for reception | ||

| Looking at the new rates and tats If I send comics in and pay the express price the tat is 14 days and the regular tat is 226 days Is this true Seems like a big difference in tats |

Quote:Originally Posted by sylcarlin Received in the mail is not the same as "received" into the system. I sent books last year, first week of July. They got them in 2 days (the tracking said so). I got an email first week of September saying they were received. That's 2 months. Be patient and don't worry about them.

Look up some who do more serious stuff like you're asking. Are you on social media? That would make them easy to find. I know CBCS does pressing, though I don't know how good it is but I have no idea if they do cleaning or substance removals. Would probably add another year onto the turnaround though, lol.

I don't, so it's not worth it to me. |

| Canadian submissions take forever to show up as "Received" if you send them through the Canadian office. My first submission didn't show up as received until 3-4 months after they arrived in Oakville. It also adds a few months to have them delivered back to you once they get shipped. I learned my lesson last time and submit all of mine directly to the Dallas office now, cuts months off my wait time and they show up as "Received" within a week or even days of arrival giving me a lot more peace of mind. | ||

@sylcarlin welcome  Confucius says patience is a virtue.... Breath in.....Breath out..... You have come to the best grading company. Go to TAT thread for more accurate updates. CS may/or man not reply to your inquiries. Don't believe what your dashboard says, its going to be way behind where your books truly are in the system. Example: I have a submission that was received in Dallas back in the 1st week of September. My dashboard says it's received. But customer service says it's in pre-grade. I recommend participating in some of the other threads and enjoy being here in the forum. Cheers... |
