Actually, they went out this morning. The line at the post office was Hella long so I got there early today to beat the morning crowd.  |

| Hey, 45 day turnaround times are nothing compared to 200+ days a few years ago. | ||

| VSP, Press and Grade... Delivered: 11/1, ImagingSP: 11/1, Press In: 12/18, Press Out: 1/5 (46 business days) Seven weeks for VSP seems excessive, three weeks for pressing is probably about right. I hope this to be through grading and production by the end of next week. We'll see. |

| So my comics should be delivered to CBCS January 11, 2024. Most of comics are vintage standard grading only with 1 having VSP which I think adds at least 4 weeks? Does anyone know a rough estimate as to when they will be done and shipped back to me? Around March 11, 2024 or what? The post above said 7 weeks in VSP so maybe it will be after march 11? | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by marfMy current order only spent about 2 or 3 days in VSP before heading to the pressing room (where they've been for almost a week now). I have 3 comics that needed VSP with 4 signatures spread between them. I think that 7 weeks listed above is an anomaly. |

| Complete newbie here, first time submitting anything. Submitted one book for VSP, press, grade, with express tier. Accepted/Invoiced: 24/01/09 Verification & grading marked complete: 24/01/12 It now says my book is in production. I know I chose the express tier but I almost feel like something went wrong. Is it even possible for them to do VSP verification, pressing, and grading in 3 days?? I mean, I'm not complaining haha just seems to good to be true from everything I've read on here. |

Quote:Originally Posted by JoSchmo This is THE weakness in the CBCS status reporting. The only way to get this level of detail is to check the "PRINT INVOICE" every damn day (or multiple times per day) and watch for status changes. Then you have to know that the order is signature verification, then pressing, then grading. Nowhere do they teach you this, we learned the hard way by watching order after order after order. Express orders DO have guaranteed turn times, and they are very fast comparatively. |

Quote:Originally Posted by figment Ahhh, thank you for the info!!! I'd been searching the forums but couldn't figure it out. I've got to admit I've been checking the tracker and my order page every day lol but wasn't actually printing invoice every time. I can see it's in imaging now though! |

| VSP, press express, grade express Delivered: 24/01/08 Invoiced: 24/01/09 Completed: 24/01/25 Book was just shipped out today so will be next week before I actually have it in hand but very happy with the express turnaround. Book was at CBCS for a total of 12 business days, and 17 total days. Very happy given the estimate on checkout was 5 weeks. |

| 11/6 One magazine with vsp x5 received. It says ‘processing’- what does processing mean, it’s still in processing |

figment private msg quote post Address this user | |
| Processing means CBCS has it, it's not really a status. To get the real status you have to click on the order number, and then click on the "Print Invoice". That's the only way to get "current" information. | ||

| I tried what you say but there was no indication of the order status. I gotta say a magazine (ST #1) sent in Nov 14th for grading and signature authentication hasn’t budged since I got an email saying it’s due for grading about a month ago. How often do they update the status on the work order or is there somewhere else I should be looking? | ||

| @Boba Your magazine order has been graded and is being encapsulated. Your second order is still in line to be pressed. | ||

| Ok I have another question- I just got an email saying my order is complete and being made ready to ship. Can I see what grade was assigned and if my signature(s) were verified. I will likely try the dashboard again to find this in order status. Regardless it’s a thrill to think I’ll have it back soon! | ||
