So maybe mine is shipping soon as well. I gave it to my LCS in hopes they might get a discount vs me. It didn’t work out that way, so I don’t have access to that information readily. But he said it was in the system around the same time. 🤞🏾 | ||

@ARTisCOOL Great choice! So so so so tired of seeing Spawn 1, Spider-Man 1, etc... Even in 9.8 I've grown tired of Spawn/Spiderman signed by McFarlane. I love oddball, cool choices like this one. |

@Nuffsaid111 Thanks! I finally freed it from the polybag after all these years. Definitely needed a press to remove the bag crease. | ||

This time around they are going crazy with the signed prices off the bat. Which looks real good for sellers. | ||

Assuming mcfarlane went home already for the holidays, does anybody know when he will be back to finish the last of the signings? I still have 3 outstanding orders.... =( |

Yea, I asked a question of CGC CS about it and got the answer that they are still signing and my books had not even been signed yet. He went home for the holidays but came back and is in Sarasota now. So I guess they'll keep coming out as he signs stuff, etc... | ||

Just checked and 3 of the 5 books I sent in went from "received at CCS" to "scheduled for grading". The other 2 are still showing received. They were checked in on 11/28/22. I have a question for anyone who have gotten theirs back already. Did you add pressing to your order? I've actually never sent in to CGC before so wasn't sure if that was being done before or after the signing. Or if it was actually even done at all. I've heard a couple of stories of people getting their books back that were supposed to be pressed but doesn't look like they were. Or they were damaged after. |

@Puckster I got back an order with 6 books. 2 were 9.8 2 had bends. I asked the customer service rep if they were pressed and he said send them back. They have been in queue for a couple of weeks now. In regards to when they press them, in theory after they get signed they get pressed. I believe I was the one who emailed and asked and got the reply, but I would have to look at my history to be certain. But CCS Pressing has gone downhill. I still use it fir signings but that is pretty much it. I've lost faith in their day to day pressing even though I have had wildly successful presses in tbe past from them. Edit I have one book that is far from mint and needs pressing in a bad way. That book jumped to encapsulation today. I'm hoping it should be pretty obvious if it wasn't pressed. |

@Bronte Good to know. I know that 3 of the books that I sent in should get a 9.8 without pressing. I'm with you, though. In theory it should be after their signed and the damage that can happen while being handled to be signed is scary. I did it to be safe. As far as I'm concerned, there's no reason why those 3 should come back with any kind of damage. The other 2 have very minor flaws on the spine. Nothing color breaking that I could see. My ASM 300 has the tiniest of tears on the top of the back cover which will probably knock it down to the 8.0-8.5 range if I'm being pessimistic. I guess I'm going to have to wait and see. |

Quote:Originally Posted by Puckster For ALL CGC private signings, they automatically require pressing. (And they charge you $20 for that forced pressing whether you want it or not). Money grab imo. But to answer your question, they press everything that is sent to them for a private signing. (its in the order form when you first purchase it). ![]() |

@multi007 not true- that’s why it says “If CCS pressing is also requested”- and that’s why it says “(an additional $20 fee applies for CCS pressing)” $120 is for just the signing and grading (6 weeks)- IF you pay another $20 you can have CCS press it and it takes an additional 2 weeks (8 weeks total)- ![]() |

I think they press before they get signed? My books, right now, are at "Received by CCS", yet the CS rep told me they had not been signed yet. It could be that that's just the default for SS submissions and they don't actually press them until after (which would make sense), but that status is the only thing I have to go on. |

@radd76 I could’ve sworn that I saw a thing on that page that said, all in-house signings must be pressed. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by multi007@multi007 It’s worded very poorly - I thought just as you and called their CS and they explained that no it’s a service you have to request- reason being I had already pressed the books so didn’t want more unneeded work there- we window bag and double board all our submissions to in house signing so if they bend those it’s bad enuff their shotty pressing outfit wouldn’t be fixing that abuse anyway- |

4 books being sent back to me at 9.4. No dang notes to why it scored so low. Paid for pressing so I dont think it's the polybag crease but no way of knowing. |
