| @Kasperb991 Yes, I linked to those same pricing charts but none of those add up to the numbers you gave Regardless, Modern Express Grading + Pressing is $80 ($40 pressing + $40 Grading). With a membership you save 10%, bringing the price to $72 ($36 Grading + $36 Pressing) |

| That looks like Express Plus grading but regular speed pressing - I wouldn't recommend it. | ||

| @Kasperb991 You hadn’t specified Express Plus so I was looking at Express pricing I am pretty sure what you are seeing is an error with the submission form since $15 is the standard price for pressing, not Express Plus. Per the Pressing Pricing Page, Express Plus Pressing should be $65 plus Express Plus Grading at $75 for a total of $140 With membership Express Plus pressing goes down to $59 and Grading to $68 for a total of $127 |

| @Kasperb991 It shouldn’t. Pressing speed always matches the grading speed, which is why I said it was an error in the submission form | ||

| Well dang so now I can expect a few more dollars to grt charged to my account cuz the bill total reflects the 90 plus 75 for the other book and shipping at 202. What whludl they have done if I just did a check or money order in that case... | ||

| @Kasperb991 The order would’ve stopped at billing and you would’ve been asked to pay the remaining balance before it went into the queue. | ||

| Ok dumb question if I get pgx graded book amd want it regarded from cbcs I already know the grade will probably go down is it better to send it in the slab or Crack it my self ? | ||
| Post 340 • IP flag post | ||
 I don't believe this....and I know you don't care that I don't believe this.

| @Kasperb991 I'd send it in the slab for added protection. | ||
| Post 341 • IP flag post | ||
 The apple sauce and pudding were the best part...
|
Bronte private msg quote post Address this user | |
| Leave in slab. It will provide extra protection and if you are like most folks and not used to opening slabs leave it to someone who does it daily. The only time you might wanna do it yourself is if there is a signature inside you want picture of. | ||

None. I sent in a batman book and pgx didn't notate there was a signature inside. Cbcs was kind enough to let me know and I had it verified. As for the grade I think it's pretty much given pgx grades are worthless and nobody I'd going to go on their opinion. Essentially buying a pgx book is like buying a raw book. |

| So the last time I was considering a paid membership for CBCS the tiers were named for metals and there were coupons and such that came with them. I am reconsidering a membership now as I want to start submitting some of my more valuable/interesting books. (I have never gotten my own raw books graded before.) And the paid membership has changed completely since I looked at this last, apparently. I just want to make sure I understand the current paid membership: --No more different levels; $200 a year for everybody. --The $200 entitles me to discounted grading fees and a faster turnaround time, as listed here: https://www.cbcscomics.com/membership And that's all the $200 provides, grading fee discounts and faster processing times. I do not get back any part of that $200 in credits towards fees like at the distinguished competition. Correct? I don't feel like the membership benefits are really spelled out clearly anywhere, so I wanted to make sure I understand what I'm buying before I sign up...and I know from lurking at this forum I can expect a quicker answer here than from CBCS customer service. Thanks. |
