From what I hear, there’s such an over abundance of mail from over the weekend that even when tracking states d livered on a Friday, it can take till at least Tuesday to hit the system. That’s what I’ve gotten from them.

another order arrived today (smaller order) and that's already in their system. They take their time with bigger orders because they like to pick low hanging fruit

just called them and they confirmed what I've suspected

faster express service or more expensive services (Standard and above) will get entered into the system faster.

so turn around times don't matter and they will always hit their numbers they give us because the time of when the book show up and are "verified" isn't posted or tracked.

so again my modern fast track books arrived 7/16 and still have yet to be verified yet Standard books arrived today and will take the 15 business days

what wildly_fanciful_statement

Not doubting and it’s tragic hearing this. They also told me to write on the box the tier level. So my answer to you would be write “Walk thru” on every box you send :idea:

Is the Summer the busiest time for CGC? DO they get backed up the most during this time?

Yes, usually winter Is faster, but to be honest, they've added workers to grade books, these days are faster than it used to be even a year ago...

Not really, but I can't see it online, I have to call and that was how it was told to me. I don't have an account with cgc, did it through a facilitator, so the first couple of times I called I asked the dates of things. When I called and they said shipped, I forgot to ask when it hit QC.....
