Still waiting for my 11/3 moderns to be received.

On a side note, just noticed that quick press is up to 65 business days. When I sent in my books it was at 40. I've been a week from them getting pressed for the past 5 weeks. 

[Shockmaster]

And the TAT for Value has gone up again! TO 74 DAYS!!!!!! 

It was like 39 day TAT when they received mine. I'll never see my 8/28/20 submission until 2024 if they keep increasing the TATs and keep pushing Value submissions back!

My 9/10 modern prescreen just went to grading qc today. Its been at sfg for almost 3 weeks.

 

How long have they been at SFG? My 9/10 modern pre screen have been at SFG for over 2 weeks now.

About a month, but they shipped Thursday so I would expect a week or 2 more.

Although I sent in books for inhouse signing with the modern sub, and they're not marked as received yet  

Scheduled for Grading, 11/10  

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, soon the bells will start, and the thing that'll make them ring, is the carol that you sing right within your heart

humbug.

When were they delivered

The 5th but I kind of cheated on a way

I sent them with 1 magazine that was for the in-house signing so that I could write that on the side to be opened fast.

I had planned on doing the signing first, but since it would be opened quick, I sent the modern sub with it...

@Chazgee maybe that's why you said humbug

CGC just responded that they're still in the process of opening packages received during the week of 10/26. They said it typically takes 2-10 business days to do that.

For the amount of money they are making you’d think they hire more people

12 graded @ 9.8 and 2 @ 9.6. This was actually my best case scenario!

Best investment I've made was buying a $19.99 floor lamp from Target with 5 - 100-volt light sockets. It has increased my grading skills tremendously. I can see every little minute defect.

Agreed, that is one of the first keys to grading....Light! 

[Dmac538]

Finally received my last shipment of Pre Screen 9.8 from as far back as August. 95% of the books are Copper, and have not been pressed, 147 out of 200 came back 9.8!! I can't complain about that, books that are about 30 years or older , almost 75% 9.8.

Indeed.

I have very bright lighting in my "grading room," including an OttLite Task Lamp which I use in combination with a magnifying glass.
