| Does anyone know what actual discount percentage that CBCS is offering? I find their statement that this unknown discount amount will appear after the comic has been submitted to be a little secretive. | ||

| @Caffeine_Kid You must be on some sort of super special mailing list, because I received no such message and I cannot find this on the CBCS website. IMHO, all the discount does is finally make the grading prices CBCS charges roughly equal to competing CGC tiers. Modern FT is $39 and takes literally a few days (reg Modern at $24 is a couple of weeks). Economy FT takes a month and is $50. At least Vintage Express is now less than CGC's Standard tier. Unfortunately, CBCS's shipping - FedEx just like CGC - remains substantially more expensive - especially so if insurance is purchased. I don't mean to throw shade on CBCS on their own forum. I still use them. But for the last 18 months - until about three months ago - I was sending a LOT of books to CBCS for my clients. That has shrunk drastically due to CBCS's new pricing structure for grading and shipping. It's a tough sell to get people to pay more for #2. I should also mention - on the behalf of a couple of clients that submitted books starting Sept 2021 through Feb 2022 that they are NOT amused at any specials offered. They have contacted me complaining that CBCS needs to grade THEIR books before running sales to get more still. |

| Normally I wouldn't use CBCS for all of the reasons mentioned, but I need signature verification for some comics that are unwitnessed (I got them in person over 10 years ago). Unfortunately, only CBCS offers this service. | ||

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

Quote:Originally Posted by daffsters If you've already waited 10 years, do you really "need" to submit them this instant. If you dislike CBCS that much, why don't you just wait it out up to 10 more years and maybe your preferred comic book slabber will have authentication services available by then. At least you're not going the qualified label route with the other guys, which generally kills the value of books. I hope you also take up your disapproval with CGC's lack of authentication services on their forum. |

| How do you claim the discount? I have some signature verifications I'd like to send in but I'd like to get them pressed too, is it any submission form created thjis weekend counts even if they get the books in 2 months time? | ||

| @Coldbobt - Usually they go by the date your package was shipped as the cut-off date. | ||
