@VaComicsGuy - If I was a betting man, I wouldn’t like your odds.

What do you think the odds are if I skip the pressing?

I turned these books in at a Dallas Fan Expo in Early April. Then I was told 12 week turn around. Then I was told after waiting several weeks, that it would be past the processing phase and into the next 7/6/2018. Well here we are 4 days later and what do I see? The same message of processing. I'm thinking about sending some to CGC to compare how they work things and to see if they were the better deal, not by money but actual customer service and turn around time. As my first experience getting comics graded and slabbed, its not good so far.

@farevilla You are really far behind if you submitted books in April a lot of us submitted in March and are still getting the run around being told processing/grading with dates that never happen I been told my books are in the slab room since the 4th of June

My books were dropped off at ECCC on March 1st, marked recieved on March 15th, and are still in grading. I had a mix of VSP and ASP. Based on an email with CS I’m optimistic they will be G2G in the next week or two.

If you skip the pressing, to quote from Dumb and Dumber:

“So you’re saying I have a chance!”

Yeah. That's what I thought. Looks Like he will get the books but un-slabbed.

@VaComicsGuy - Good luck. I want to send in some books too, just to get them in line.
PS - I still have the Batman Family issues if you are still interested in a sale or trade.

@KingNampa I have my own pressing service so, no, did not use the cbcs one. just straight grading.

IMO Never skip Pressing. Just look to outsource the pressing then fast track the grading or consider the other company for grading as well. They currently are on top of it at the moment
ment.

@eloreto
Same for me but these aren't really valuable books and aren't going anywhere. Just some of my son's favorites (1st book he ever got, favorite cover, stuff like that) We are going to re-do his bedroom soon and planning to hang them on the walls for him.

I submitted 4 books, received may 29, no press, fast pass, got the shipping notice today, So about 7+weeks
Is the ship being righted?

Best part, all 4 were 9.8s!

If the viagra is working you should be well over a 9.8. xkonk private msg quote post Address this user
Last night my status changed to "literally had a dream that my order updated to move out of pressing", but this morning my status is actually still just "received".

Could there be a delay with my books because on my Invoice it says balance due $26.53? Books arrived March 20/18. They have my Credit Card number. Shouldn't they just charge my card or is there a step I need to take? I tried to call billing and customer service but no answer and can't leave a message. Thanks in advance for any help.

Mine says processing but does this mean it's shipping to me or still in processing?

I haven't submitted books for grading since 2016. I'm currently thinking about sending in about 3 moderns 2day modern tier. What is the actual wait for this tier now?

Four month or more would be my best guess.

I think 2 day modern is running on time. My last Quickstream submission only took two weeks as expected.

I just mailed 15 books to Texas today. The on-line form is still saying there’s a 12-week turnaround time, and they should receive my books Thursday. Should I expect them back around Christmas? Figured I might as well get in line now.

I’m on Week 31 of an order received on 12/13/17 with an estimated TAT of 25 weeks. I called about a week and a half ago and was told they’d check on it and call me back. Still haven’t heard from them. Let that sink in....

Mine has said processing for my two orders since April. I emailed them and they told me that it is in pre grading phase but online it says processing.

Has there been any update on how those of us that were expecting to pick up our books in St Pete are going to get them back? I dropped mine of on March 16th, and was told they would be ready in about 12 weeks. No mention of any upcoming move. They went to grading in the middle of April, which I thought was nice, but nothing since then. The last time I asked this question a few weeks ago, I was told they were still not sure how we are getting them. If anyone has any info, please let me know. Thanks.
