I still have 1 of 5 subs from 4/7 still at CCS... hasn't even made it back to CGC. I will be calling on Monday. I also read your posts on the grades from your recent subs. I got 2 subs back 2-3 weeks ago. All over the place. There were a few I missed some stuff on... thats on me, but others it seemed like they were looking for perfection to get a 9.8, and a 9.8 to get a 9.6. Then there were a couple that I looked at and was like there is no way that should be graded that high. So then I have to state in my listings that I think the are over graded so I don't have to deal with returns. I just hate seeing my subs going from received back to CGC, graded, encapsulated, and shipped in 2 days time. Out of the 4 subs I've gotten back, the only one that I felt the grades were fair is the sub that took 2 1/2 months at CGC. The other 3 were received at CGC and shipped by the third day. I've kept a fair amount of the more valuable 9.4s and 9.6s and decided not to sell them because i think they are under graded. I am going to wait for this chaos to end, and resubmit them.

Yeah... it just seems odd they would sit for 2 days without a label... now hearing you've never experienced this with as many subs you do, I'm kinda nervous...

So I had a sub marked shipped Wednesday morning, and it still hasn't had a label printed for it... called and they said it must be behind... anyone every had one sit like this during the week?

Yeah, I got a lot of 9.4s... most of which I thought had a fair chance at 9.6... cgc did not concur 😂😂😂😭

2 more of my 4/7 CCS/CGC submissions shipped today... ooofff... talk about some tough grading 😬 I'll be anxious to look at these. Out of the 4 that have been graded so far 1 sat in GEI for 2 1/2 months (great grades)... the other 3 were at CCS 2 1/2 months longer, but when transferred over flew through all of GEI, QC, shipped in a 2-3 day time period (not the best grades)... did these go to the new grading unit and expidited? These new graders need to ease up a bit... sheeeesh... or maybe I'm just old and need to invest in some glasses lol... 1 submission left to be finished, and now I'm nervous 😬

That Malibu error was a 9.4, dropped 2 grades... what can you do 🤷‍♂️ ASM 300 and 316 were a 9.6s, so guess there had to be a trade off somewhere...

Second submission made it back to me today, so 2 of 5 😁

Got 1 out of 5 of my submissions back... of course the first box back is the one I had the least amount of anticipation for 😂

Well that's awful 😬

I'm impressed you got graders notes on a 9.4...

Surprised they didn't use mine for the photo. It's a 9.8 newsstand. They just shipped it out 2 days ago.

It changed to shipped in a day, yay!!! Super pumped about a couple of grades, and bummed about couple. So this sub had 4 (almost 5, but was too scared it would drop from a 9.8) books in it that I cracked open for the McFarlane sig even back in Dec 2019/Jan 2020. Sadly i became unemployed because my company decided to close it's doors shortly after I cracked open the slabs. So I didn't think it was a wise idea to spend the money on the event, and tossed them back in my collection to wait for another sig event. I got bored waiting, and sent them in. Here are the results: The awesome : ASM 300 CGC 9.6 old label -> CGC 9.8 ASM 316 Newsstand CGC 9.6 -> CGC 9.8 Now the not awesome... ASM 301 CGC 9.6 -> CGC 9.2, guessing I must have damaged it taking it out, or it was way over graded. I didn't notice anything when i resubbed it, but i didn't really look very hard since it was a 9.6 already. Fyi I thought it was a good idea to crack open cases after a few glasses of whiskey, lucky i didnt mess them all up 😢 Major bummer i guess... Malibu Sun 13 error version CGC 9.4 -> CGC 9.0. Honestly, I always felt this was over graded. So I feel like this is an acceptable correction... a 9.2 would have been better though lol. Super stoked with the grade bumps on the 300 and 316. The other 20 books were all great grades as well. Chalk today up as a win 😁

My 4/7 CCS sub that has been in GEI since 11/19 went to QC today.

Wait... not only do I have to keep a look out for my submissions, but other people's as well?

Thanks for that... friggin song is going to be stuck in my head for the next few hours 😐😂
