I think my worst batch was around 50% rejected. I definitely screen my books a LOT harder now. Ninja0215 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't over spend by much but over is over..... so now I have to budget for Imaginary money that will realize when CGC gets around to it I fell like I should tag an administrator in my post bus c'est la vie Ninja0215 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I am unfamiliar with it. you have to have a minimum of 25 books. set your goal grade, everything that grade and above gets slabbed, and you're charged $5 per reject book @Ninja0215 Edited March 5 by ADAMANTIUM Ninja0215 and Willbert 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Willbert Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 (edited) 39 minutes ago, ADAMANTIUM said: @Yetti82 I don't know why the confusion emoji on the last comment I made but @Willbert I'm sorry it is taking so long to be be marked "received" from when they're delivered, hence the comment "those received dates though " comment But at least CGC is consistent from the last time you posted........ I have books delivered 2/24 still not marked received, looks as though it will still be a couple of weeks still Remember when it took 2-3 days tops after delevery? I was picking up what you were laying down. Yeah, before long it'll take a month to get marked received and almost 3 to get graded at the modern tier. I don't see submissions dropping off, so until they expand we are all stuck on that slow boat to nowhere. Edited March 5 by Willbert ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I try to stagger all my submissions like that, this way i don't get overwhelmed all at once. The only time i will stop is, if i run out of space, or customers stop buying, fortunately customers are still buying!! This I understand. Ninja0215 and Dmac538 2 Link to post Share on other sites
