Submitted 16 books on modern tier on September 14, just got them today October 16. I am shocked. I usually wait several months to get my books.

Meanwhile, I've had a single Modern magazine sitting on "graded" for seven business days.  CGC is snatching defeat from the jaws of victory by taking a submission that I thought was going to come in on schedule, and are turning it into one that may not ship for over two weeks after the projected turnaround time.

Not sure if my comment is still applicable but I believe they have to calibrate the encapsulation machine differently for a magazine. They would let the CGC magazine submissions build up and do them all at once, thus requiring the calibration only once. Typically, it was about once a week.  Encapsulation has always been the cog in the wheel for a magazine submission. Not sure if submitting one Modern magazine is worth the expense either ?

My Mag Mod (Marvel Graphic Novel 4) has been sitting on graded since 10/8.  That's 10 business days now.  This delay seems a bit excessive.
