Modern slow track at 47 days now. 

Then add in the two weeks it takes to get them from being delivered to received status.

It's really a win-win situation for CGC. They won't change anything with the high turnaround times because they are banking on collectors slowing down their submissions. Once the turnaround times go down to normal, people will start sending in their books again. In the meantime, CGC will continue grading at the same pace they are now with the same staff.

I have been waiting about a month to send in a group for Value tier thinking turnaround times would decrease. They keep getting worse so I sent in today thinking it could be over 100 days by the time they log them in.

I would hold off  until things catch up. I wish ineoulf have waited,  definitely didn't think it was gonna be like this.

Thy seem to be headed in the opposite direction from catching up.

For value tier I'd agree. For modern I'd still send in the books because the turnaround times are like a roller coaster. Next week they could be down to 27 days again. I feel the same way about pressing. Even though Quick Press is 93 days now, I will likely still send in a couple of batches soon and hope that 3 months down the road turnaround times are back to 60 days or so. Last time I waited until the turnaround times went down to 40 days and wound playing catchup for 2 months as the wait time increased by 5 days each week.

still not received yet, most likely looking at Tuesday. I didnt  see any in house sigings announced after  march so maybe just maybe turn around times will drop then.

Crazy that they don't get recorded and entered for so long. You would think that CGC would want to at least do that so they could collect the fees. Although if they did record on day of receipt it would probably double TAT. I mean that's great TAT is listed at 20 days, when you have actually taken possession 14 days prior which would make the TRT 34 days.

Yeah that signing is going to be a TAT killer. Should be massive.

For reference:

Books delivered to CGC (Sarasota) by UPS on 12/30/20

Books marked 'Received' by CGC on 1/11/2021

 

Considering the holiday, the time between delivered and received is minimal.  However the ongoing time between Received and SFG is 11 (+/- 1) business days and counting.

Still in received status as of this post.
