| @SteveRicketts Quick Question about timelines and turn around times. I thought that I remember someone from CBCS stating that the backlog was in the encapsulation process. In the TAT thread, someone recently posted that pressing is behind by 3 months? My submission date of 6/11 has been in pressing the entire time. When should I expect to see it begin to process through the next stages? BTW, I am not complaining about the TAT. There is a reason that you guys have my books and not the other guys. |

 Would this be a good candidate for a press? On the pressing page, there isnt a listing for "crinkle bends".... |

| We are a few weeks away from pressing 6/11. On the bright side, books from pressing are moving into the grading queue after they are finished and acclimated, so you won't have to wait much longer. | ||

| Cool!!! My books were submitted 6/3 but have seen no status changes - probably because they haven't yet moved to pressing - looking forward to seeing status updates in the next few weeks!! | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by mrelowe I am not giving hope to anyone. Lots people on here complaining so I am kept my post neutral. All I know is that my books shipped, and expect them in a few days time to be in my hands. I am happy with the service I have received so far, and think it is pretty cool to get books slabbed. Good luck and happy collecting! |

| For what its worth, I peeked at my pressing results. A CGC graded 2.0 was increased to a CBCS 2.5. A PGX 8.5 decreased to a CBCS 8.0. And yes, I'm happy that the PGX could score a 8.0. (I bought the PGX before I knew the brand' reputation was kryptonite) I should receive them tomorrow. | ||

| @SteveRicketts I submitted my books for pressing back in September under fast pass and fast press. I got an email that they were received but my order still reflects processing. Should I see an update once they leave pressing to be graded? | ||

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

| Unsure if the question has been given and I assume the answer would be yes....but are square bound issues eligible for pressing......by example Batman 187...go-go checks-square bound and an eighty page giant | ||

Will pressing damage a signature on a book? And should every book be pressed if you are submitting? I'm taking my signed Stan Lee book in tomorrow for drop off and didn't know if it was a good idea to have it pressed as well for a higher grade. Should I even bother pressing it?    |

| I just got the shipping email for a fast pass press/grade (all modern) from 10/3. That's only like 9 weeks instead of 13 so that's pretty good. Although I put press check on them, so I'm not 100% if they got pressed or not. | ||

| @Darkseid_of_town Yes, I can press square bound books without a problem. @kevinlmillard In most instances there is not a problem pressing a book with a signature. There have been a few exceptions on books with metallic ink, but it's very limited. If I suspect there could be a problem, I will reject the book from pressing at no charge to the customer for pressing or screening. @xkonk Yes your books were pressed. |

Bronte private msg quote post Address this user | |
| @SteveRicketts I apologize for pestering you, I looked up terminology on the main CBCS site and googled the term, but "crinkles" was not listed. I want to submit a few books. Is this book capable of a "possible" press improvement? Or is crickles indicative of a severe damage?  |

| @Bronte "Crinkle bends" are not listed in a glossary of comic book terms. They're likely just a series of small bends, such as from a corner impact or similar damage. It's probably something that can be improved if not fixed completely. | ||

| @SteveRicketts Thanks Steve. I guessed from the pricing on the invoice but the detail in the system is still lacking. The last order I got back, which also had press screen, included an invoice but it was the original one instead of the final one. Interesting choice. | ||
