I wish they revert back to $85. Depending on how many pple send x number of sealed and CIB games in. I hope so. I am refraining from sending anything right now. I read CGC hired several pple and will open sometime in 2022 but not sure when. No idea what there slabs will look like. More akin to Wata, VGA or something else? I hope it isn't anything like VGG. The abomination. Being located with PSA is a major game-changer. They are reportedly grading a million cards a month and shipping them out, video games is a drop in the bucket for what they have set up. I've sent in 4 orders to CA, one was back early, and the other three two are Speedruns and were grading within a week and the other is a Warp, which went into grading the day after he was received. People I've spoken with that had games sent when CA first opened say everything is looking good, even with Speedruns. The backlog seems to be operating on a different group, probably Denver. So they are making progress it seems, but they still don't have the resources CA has. Edited March 18, 2022 by ExplodedHamster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still waiting for NES/SNES speedrun orders from july/august. It looks like they move inventory partially to California and are shipping as they work through the pallets is my assumption. Some stuff remained in Denver as I've got three packages from CA and two from CO. So they are just working through the remaining orders and I'm sure your stuff will go out sometime soon. Seems like a lot of people are starting to receive stuff pretty regularly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gulag Joe | 582 Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 Wata graded games are flooding ebay right now. Not with any games in particular, just in general. We're gonna see some leveling off here very soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gulag Joe | 582 Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 CGC had all this talk about launching a grading service and here we are all these months later and still nothing.

I have a bunch of games I'd consider sending to them if reception is positive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VGA's pop report was imminent... 6 months later, crickets. Wata, we know about the overpromising. GameValueNow was supposed to have major changes and improvements... has pretty much died. I fault people for believing everything they hear as factual more than the companies for overpromising. That's what companies always do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have really considered creating a new grading company, because IMO it isnt that difficult to actually meet the "user demands" specially once being on the other side, and I really cant understand why these companies are actually doing what we ask, because the resources required are not that much. The only problem I see is it would be difficult to get people grading if the company is new. Question is, would you consider sending your games for grading to a new company that offers fair pricing, "fast" turnaround times, fair grading scores and live population report on their website kind of as PSA works? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
