| Dropped off two submissions totaling 12 books at the post office on Saturday, 13 May 2023. Submission one: 2 vintage, 2 modern, and 4 new books for pressing and grading. Submission two: 4 new books for grading, one with VSP. Books were signed for at CBCS 15 May. 16 May both submissions were marked on dashboard as "Processing." I also received email notification that all the books in the order with pressing had been "moved into the pressing area." Will update as they move through the system. |

| Ugh - looks like CS is back to their "old" tricks of not replying to emails in a prompt manner. The "New" CBCS still has vestiges of the "Old" CBCS... | ||

| So I submitted 3 books and they were received on 4/26. Fast approaching the 30day turn around time as I sit here on 5/26 and have not seen nor heard about any updates. So much for improved turn around times and guarantees about getting back to you in 30 days. At some point you have to decide if the time is worth the cost. My last submission of 3 modern books (No verification & No press) took a year. This is just frustrating. | ||

 I'd like to say I still turned out alright, but that would be a lie.

| 2 Vintage, 4 New and 23 Modern (including 3 VSP) delivered 29 March. Press and Grade. Just moved from Grading to Heat Seal today, so just over 2 months for press/grade and VSP. Pretty good IMO! |

| All VSP and grading have been done. They are in Heat Seal now. 27 actual days later (haven't looked to see what that looks like for working days, but given the extras 2 weeks expected for VSP as well, well within the TAT they are advertising I think) Quote: Originally Posted by xvipah |

| Here's one for you... I delivered a group of 10 magazine orders to CBCS Plano on May 22. One with VSP is three magazines, no pressing, and is currently at ImagingSP (not yet reached Grading). Eight grade-only orders of three magazines each are currently at Grading. The last order was nine magazines with pressing and is now past Grading at Heat Seal. Gotta hand it to @SteveRicketts for achieving warp speed! |

| Well, the last order came in this past Friday. Brief background - in September of 2022, I had 2,443 modern books submitted to CBCS for pre-screening and grading over 11 orders. I called CBCS and asked them to return the books as I am a dealer and the delays were seriously impacting my cash flow in a negative way. CBCS emailed me to verify that sending them back to me un-screened/ungraded is what I wanted and I confirmed that I did. The sales manager for the Southeast U.S. also emailed me apologizing and asking if there is anything he could do. From then on, I was pretty much ghosted and then CBCS started completing and shipping my orders very quickly which then put another cash flow crunch on me. My inventory had decreased prior to that to the point that my sales decreased sharply so adding a bunch of order payments on top of it was tough. CBCS did not process the orders chronologically so the last one I received this past Friday was from March 2022 - the last order I submitted to CBCS was from June 2022. The only thing left is that I have a lot of raw books that were piling up during my cash flow problems that I want to get graded. Once that is done, I will then be completely out of the weeds. This has been a very tough year and a half - better days ahead! |

| Shipped today. So 36'ish real days total (I'm guessing 30 or so working days, maybe a few less actually). For 4 modern 1 new, no pressing, but 2 VSP's. Not too bad at all. Quote: Originally Posted by xvipah |

| No email or tracking information yet, but all my books I sent in for pressing and grading are done; grades popped up on my dashboard this afternoon. Books sent for grading only are now showing as in the grading room. | ||
