Quote:Originally Posted by sportshort You knew that the books were going to be processed under 3 tiers, correct? Why would CGC assume that you'd want them held until the 3rd tier is done processing...? All you had to do was call CGC and ask, prior to your order, how to hold them for 1 shipment. I just don't understand how "CGC sucks" here, man. It sounds like typical modern entitlement - despite that you say "I screwed up". |

| Ok maybe I’m terrible at explaining things, probably am. Let me try again. I entered 3 books into the order form made sure they were all modern to avoid different tiers. Entered values at the end I the form gave me a total, how was I supposed to know that my total would be different once the books were revived? The computer knew I had one modern for grading, 1 modern for grading with a promo label and one reholder. Why didn’t the total on the form reflect the correct price? I had no idea it was wrong and that I should’ve researched something when I clearly had a total CGC provides me. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by theCapraAegagrus Maybe it doesn't and I am recalling incorrectly but even if I am wrong why can't it calculate everything, I enter all the info correctly (apparently a miracle in itself) I order items all the time and get all totals, shipping, taxes, tariffs, whatever. Why can't CGC's sytem do that for me. P.s. I already know I'm dumb you don't have to remind me (my wife (whom i love *in case she reads this*)) reminds me every day). |

Quote:Originally Posted by Studley_Dudley Wow! Starting to think I should apologize for the Vaseline comment I dropped into the discussion over CGC submissions awhile back. Hey guys, it was just a joke!  ...   Quote: Originally Posted by sportshort It’s very clear that you feel abused by the process. Sadly, there’s probably wiggle room in the CGC’s pricing policy guidelines that provides them with cover for whatever they charge. Businesses usually have legal wording in fine print that protects them from disputes over their service and charging practices that limit the extent of their liability. That said, even if they’ve dotted all the “i’s“ and crossed all the “t’s” legally, they can’t avoid the bad optics of complicity in a business practice that misinforms unwary customers resulting in overcharging. Service reviews help collectors decide whether they can entrust their business to the CGC. It also informs folks what to watch out for policy-wise. . |

Quote:Originally Posted by sportshort Precisely because of what happened here. Say a customer ships in what they -submit- as 5 Modern books, but 1 of them is Silver Age. CGC isn't going to bite the bullet, process them all under the same tier, and ship them together. They're going to do their job, separate the tiers, and ship them as they typically do. Again - it's not fair to blame CGC and claim that "they suck" when it's SOP. |

| @theCapraAegagrus, You are correct. all 3 of mine were moderns, i made sure of that so as not to have the exact problem i had. so let me see if I understand your point. you feel that CGC was right and justified for having a separate tier for putting on a label with a character on it? and charge extra for shipping? even though they charge you 5 dollars already for that label? if you agree that this is fair and just, then we cannot continue this conversation because this is the classic "agree to disagree". No harm no foul. |

Jesse_O private msg quote post Address this user | |
| I do have one more thing to point about this. Tiers are usually defined by the comic. Either it's age or value will dictate the appropriate tier. You have the option of upgrading to a quicker tier if you desire. So when CGC makes a tier just because they are offering a special label, it is unexpected. It may be SOP for CGC, but having a tier defined by a label and not the comic is not common. I realize that is because these are "special and unique" labels, but they could make it clearer that they are a tier all their own. I don't see how that is an unreasonable expectation. Take CBCS's ART label. It is clearly set apart as a different program altogether. It is not a "tier" or an option. CGC could do something similar with their specialized labels. |

Quote:Originally Posted by sportshort I don't have a feeling of CGC's "righteousness". It is simply a fact that this is how they do business. It's a part of the reason that I have zero interest in those stupid labels. If you think CGC "sucks" because you seemingly don't understand how they process orders, then I'd hate to hear your opinion on any business at all. My understanding is that anyone and everyone else who has ordered these labels had no misunderstandings about how they were going to be processed and shipped. You're wrongfully blaming CGC here. |
