Yep. No idea what they were doing, I was on vacation or I’d have called. I did package multiple tier / invoice together, but it was packaged nicely per their instructions.

I don’t know maybe they felt bad for keeping for 3 weeks before even “receiving”, lol. Mine was 3 books only, no fast track.

3 modern Signature Series

Received 6/24/2019

Scheduled for grading 07/17/2019

Moved to Grading/Quality Control 07/23/2019.

[Drummeraa]

25 Books for Modern Pre-Screen at a 9.8 - Update:

Delivered to CGC on 5/21

Scheduled for Grading on 5/29

Credit Card charged on 6/7 for the full amount (as if all 25 were 9.8's - I called and they said they'd refund the money once all is said and done. Is that weird to anyone?)

Grading/Quality Control on 7/19

Only 3 rejects showing so far. I'm hoping that of the 22 remaining, they all stay at 9.8 (or higher, lol).  The highest the TAT got during this period was 57 days; lowest, 40.  Now it sits at 42.

Will update when they ship.

No, they're never late when it comes to taking payment. It's everything else that seems to be delayed They'd rather take the full amount and issue a refund than wait and charge the correct amount.

Yes. Very weird. They aren't supposed to charge on pre screens until after they are graded/rejected.

They are in QC so they are graded and they do usually charge the card at this point however I've never seen them charge the full amount for all 25 unless they all passed the pre-screen. They usually charge the full amount for the ones that passed (looks like 22 in this case) and then $5 per for the rejects.

They were charged over a month before they hit QC for his order.

[Drummeraa]

Yeah, there is no way they could have been evaluated in a little over a week of being received and scheduled for grading in the system.  Unless, they were like, "Dang, so impressive!  These have to all be 9.9's and 10's for sure cause this dude knows how to pre-screen the pre-screen like a mo fo riot!"

My bad, thought he said he could see the rejects. Still weird for them to charge for all of them and then refund... haven't seen that from them and I pre screen regularly.

How's magazine turnaround these days? 

[dustin.moffitt85]

Just an update: *Edit: Economy fast track

Delivered:06/09

SFG:06/15

Grading/QC: 07/19

Finalized/Imaged/Shipped: 07/23

Moon Knight 1 5/14 Marvel Comics Sienkiewicz Variant Cover

9.8 WHITE

Wolverine: Origins 10 3/07 Marvel Comics Retailer Incentive Edition

9.4 WHITE

NYX 3 2/04 Marvel Comics

9.6 WHITE

I am a little surprised by the Wolverine book, but otherwise I guessed about right. My grader notes indicated only flaws on the back cover (which I neglected to thoroughly inspect) for the 9.4 and 9.6 so lesson learned for the next submission. I have multiples of the NYX and Moon Knight so I am definetly happy.
