June of last year???

Nope, sixteen days ago. Hoping they show up in my dashboard soon, but I'm thinking they'll be in pressing for 6-8 weeks. Will they enter them in at the pressing stage, or will I have to wait until they're received in TX for grading?

@Paint_Monk it will say pressing (at least on the actual PDF invoice - mine did at least) - took a loooong time for mine to change status but after pressing they zipped along pretty fast.

Did you pay for Fast Pass? I submitted 5 modern books on February 20 with pressing, VSP on 4 of the books, and Fast Press for all 5.

Just curious to see if I'm in the same time frame or if VSP is really adding that much time to the process.

Thanks! I hope you're right. I just don't want to be waiting until Christmas for six books to come back. It just bugs me at the moment that these were submitted at a con on June 1st and they aren't even showing in my dashboard yet as received.


Thanks for posting on it, I appreciate it!

Heck, I'm just waiting for them so show up in my dashboard as "received." As of tomorrow, it'll be 3 weeks to the day they were submitted and CBCS doesn't even have an order # for me in the dashboard.

A rep today essentially told me to "relax" and they'll be in the dashboard soon but it's taking awhile.

My first submission - when they were much busier - was in my dashboard within 7 days of my submission at the con. Just nervous, I suppose, since this batch included literally ALL my key issues.

CBCS's pressing service is in Florida. The books are graded in Texas. I've not used the pressing service. But I believe it would be a reasonable guess that tracking information on the web portal might be a bit lacking UNTIL the books have been pressed and transferred to the grading facility.

This is really little different than CGC - and their pressing service is in-house and onsite. You don't see much information on the books while in pressing. It's when they are on the grading side information is on the web portal.

Steve Ricketts is on the message boards here (scroll up and you'll see a post from him). Just message him to confirm he has your books. And then as the rep said, relax. After they are pressed they will transfer to Dallas TX for grading. Then they will be in the Dashboard.

Addition: If CBCS has already confirmed they have your books, don't obsess over the dashboard. They are the pressing location. They will show up when they are at the grading location

There's no invoice - my order screen shows "No Current Orders." Hence my concern.

Again, I'm good with the time it will take, I just want confirmation they've GOT the books.

Ok so my 80 book submission from hero’s con is starting to trickle in. Seems like only half my order is in the system so far with only a phew hiccups so far that i see and will need to bring to there attention once the rest of my order is input into the system. But so far looks like it’s coming along nicely except for those phew things I see!! πŸ€— hope to see the rest of my books on my dashboard soon πŸ€—

Yeah, I've seen that on here, and I submitted 5 more books at the Amazing Las Vegas Comic Con a couple weeks ago, so definitely looking forward to the improved turnaround times.

Sent in two pieces of signed original artwork during the VSP promo - arrived and entered into the system on June 13th. Just received the shipping info now on 6/28. Excellent turnaround speed for VSP OA.

Not sure if anyone can help but I sent in 4 books for the VSP special but I was only given a $30 credit. I called customer service and they asked me to send a email. I have sent 3 emails to customer service but no reply. Any thoughts?

I had a few calls to customer service on my last order, and I was waiting for a final reply. It turns out the invoice showed them crediting my account.

I suppose my point is, check intermittently your invoice, because sometimes they do not communicate as one might expect.

I dropped off 5 modern books with pressing and VSP at Amazing Las Vegas Comic Con. From what I've read, it looks like those types of submissions don't show up on the Dashboard until after they come back from pressing. Is that right?

@lawguy1977 You should get an email and the invoice should appear on your account once they are officially received, which can be a week or more after the end of the show.

Ok, cool, I appreciate it. I was just wondering since it's been over 2 weeks as of this last Friday.

Ok, that's what I suspected. I'll give it a few more weeks and I'm sure it will show up. Thanks for replying!

I am over 8 weeks and still waiting. The TAT at the top of the page is bullsh*t. It will probably be closer to 10 weeks by the time I finally get them.
Any CBCS employee going to change that TAT?

1) The 6 week TAT listed is for U.S. submissions. As stated on the CBCS Canada page TAT for Canadian orders is 8 weeks.

2) The first batch of orders processed through the Oakville facility is on it's way back there now so you should be seeing them shortly.

Tim - as has been noted elsewhere in the forum, the yellow banner at the top of the CBCS Canada page stays the same as the banner on the general cbcscomics.com home page. So maybe somewhere on the Canada page it says 8 weeks, but the bright shiny thing you see first says 6.
