  1. Yeah this is not acceptable they charge us enough as is to skimp out on the packaging.
  2. I wouldn't exactly call it a loophole because you are paying a higher price for that express card and the express card will be shipped separately which adds an additional cost to your submission. If you're okay with all that, I guess you could "cut the line" by paying for it.
  3. Even by CGC standards I'm a bit baffled they are still opening mail from 3/22. I think they have been stuck on that week for 3 weeks now.
  4. some people say yes, others say no, there's no clear answer really. I think for valuable cards they are usually worth getting but I wouldn't bother for anything below $100.
  5. Instead of being opened in 1-2 weeks, your package is going to sit unopened for like 2 months. That's the difference.
  6. the box you sent via mail carrier has to be opened by a CGC employee before it can even be marked as received.
  7. I would be curious to hear how many packages typically get opened in a day - is it something like 300? Or 500? Or am I totally off base?
