  1. This worked for me when I ran into the same situation. I was able to get the phone number of the local FedEx hub and called them. Like you, I asked what my options were. I spoke to a manager and he said my only other option was to ask them to hold it at their facility and I could come pick it up myself. Which I did seeing as how my local hub is only a few miles from me. Yes, another hoop to jump through but it got the job done. Good luck.
  2. I'm glad to hear CGC corrected your title. I have run into this MANY times in the past. When I have a book I want to have graded and I do not see it in the Online Submission drop down list, I enter the book manually. And it's in pure black and white on the packing slip. I don't know if it's Receiving or some other group that enters the information into Submission Tracking but it's been my experience that the books you enter in manually? It's like no one even bothered to look at the packing slip. So what's the point? Whoever enters the books doesn't seem very detail oriented or they don't know what they're looking at and they just put down something other than what's on the packing slip. And when you contact customer service, they tell you the graders will catch it and correct it. HA! Not in some submissions I've sent in. The graders miss it too and I end up with a ME. To cap off my little rant, I once called CGC Customer Service to report a problem and the agent I spoke with asked for my patience because she didn't know anything about comics. Oy vey.
  3. Now THIS, this is the actions of someone who goes above and beyond for which I am very grateful. Thank you, Matt, for all that you did (and do). All the best to you, sir!!
  4. For anyone who might be submitting the Batman 131 Quesada variant covers (both pictured below), the Color version will show up in Submission Tracking as Batman 131 3/23 D.C. Comics Variant Cover. At the same time, the Quesada Sketch/B&W version will also show up as Batman 131 3/23 D.C. Comics Variant Cover. No distinction between the two. I've called CS, even posted a question in Ask CGC the latter of which was basically a blow off reply. I see a ME coming my way.
  5. "If?" There is no "if." I just gave you examples of both covers. In fact, the Quesada Sketch Edition isn't even listed in the drop down for Batman 131 (again, please see attached pic). @MattM CS - Can you please speak to this? Thank you.
  6. Hi, I've attached below the two Quesada variant covers for Batman 131. One in Color and the other a Sketch. I submitted these books under two different submissions. In Submission Tracking, submission 4188169, the colored version was relabeled "Batman 131 3/23 D.C. Comics Variant Cover." Ok, no problem. However the Sketch version in Submission 4188185, line item 4, was also labeled "Batman 131 3/23 D.C. Comics Variant Cover." Shouldn't it be labeled Batman 131 Quesada Sketch Edition or something to that effect? Please fix this so I do not end up with an ME. Thank you.

  9. @mycomicshop Hi Conan, I just received a call from my bank and I was told a Stop Payment was put on my most recent consignment check. Along with a $15 stop payment fee. I immediately called Este and she transferred me to someone who handles these kinds of matters. Come to find out, I'm not the only one this is happening to. However, it shouldn't happen anymore moving forward. So a check has been re-issued along with an additional $15 to reimburse me for the stop payment fee (thank you very much). Said consignment check was a nice little chunk of change and to have it stopped out of the blue is a bit disconcerting. May I ask what is going on with your bank? Thank you.
  10. My family never shamed me for reading comics or receiving them as gifts. In fact, they encouraged it. I wasn't the best of readers when I was a young tyke until my Dad introduced me to comic books. It wasn't long before I was reading every comic I could find. My parents did tire of me frequently asking what certain words meant (e.g. Excelsior!). I was gifted with a dictionary not long after.
  11. It's a Census issue. In the Census, you have two Power Man Annual #1's, same contents, but different dates. A little cleaning in the census appears to be in order (as well as the Registry).
  12. Thank you, Mike. But I just checked the submission in question and all slots are now properly labeled. Thank you for trying to help
  13. Sorry to hear. Just recently, I sent in a slab to be reholdered because it was mislabeled. I was told by customer service I couldn't send it back in as an M.E. because I didn't send in the book myself. I purchased it from a dealer. So as I'm sure you can guess, the 'reholder' still came back mislabeled even though I had written on the packing slip as well as the slab what was wrong. So NOW I was allowed to send it back as an M.E.
  14. Boy, I'd sure like to know how what I put on the packing slip: Turns into this in Submission Tracking:
  15. Simply repeating what I wrote in another thread: As of this writing, full functionality of the Control Panel has been fully restored (at least for me). I am no longer receiving any kind of error codes

  17. I can tell you for a fact that a Edge of Spider-Verse (2022) does not exist (I checked) and if you want this set created, this is not the thread to post such a request in. You want to post your request in this thread ...
  18. Because the 2020 thread is gone. You want the 2022 thread.
  19. Who are you and what have you done with @Get Marwood & I? The one I seem to know never froths at the mouth like this. I realize what's going on with the Chat Boards, the Registry Control Panel and website performance is beyond frustrating to all of us. As for @CGC Mike, what's the expression, "Don't shoot the messenger." Many times I have found Mike's posts very helpful. As far as I'm concerned, it's @dena who needs to get on here, be transparent, and tell the community just what the heck is going on. A blow by blow if you will. Thanks for listening.
