Jimmy Daniels Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I just logged in and checked if my comic had arrived at CGC and it finally has! I submitted a Giant Size Xmen 1 that I bought about a decade ago for 350, had it pressed and I am hoping it will come out pretty decent since it was mostly wrinkles and no line breaks with good corners. What's most of your expericenes, better or worse than you thought? Link to post Share on other sites
DaveCFPrez Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 My first submission was received a few days before Xmas. As I check on the progress my invoice # says "GRADED" but the page that lists the books still is blank "n/a" as far as any grading numbers. At this rate I'm thinking I'll get the books in person before the invoice page is updated!!!!!! Link to post Share on other sites

This can take a day or two, but you will definitely get this information before you receive your books. Joe Ankenbauer The Lions Den 1 Link to post Share on other sites
NnamAries Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 (edited) I didn't receive any submissions neither do i have any experience to share, but I am happy for both of you Edited January 15, 2019 by NnamAries Link to post Share on other sites
DaveCFPrez Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 (edited) Thanks Joe. I'll look out for the "shipped" change. The invoice has now shown as "graded" for close to 10 days, so I'm hoping to see a change to "shipped" soon. Edited January 16, 2019 by DaveCFPrez Link to post Share on other sites
DaveCFPrez Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Hopefully not long now. "Graded/Quality Control" Hoping the books ship by the end of next week. Link to post Share on other sites
Ride the Tiger Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 I haven't had any grading surprises yet. Most of the books I submit are in the 8.0 to 9.4 range and my predictions have been pretty close. Good luck! The Lions Den 1 Link to post Share on other sites
DaveCFPrez Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 6 9.8s and 1 9.9 not too shabby, hopefully they will be in hand tomorrow. Thanks national holiday for postal workers! ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to post Share on other sites

When I submitted it said 18 days, but that is probably without the pressing and shipping, I guess. Link to post Share on other sites

It depends on the tier you submitted it in, your reference to 18 days is probably the Standard tier which is now at 19 days. This is business days and yes, it is NOT inclusive of pressing and shipping. IMO, you still have a long wait. Sorry Link to post Share on other sites
Donald Jack Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 I asked CGC about current pressing time and was told "15 weeks minimum". After the pressing, CGC will then change the status from received to verified. I sent in three to be pressed then graded back mid October and I'm still showing as "received".
