CSG is great for low end flipping and ultra modern.

This is a tracking thread. How about you make an "I Hate CSG" thread and take all this over there.

Yup, tracking the progress or regress of CSG. Got my CSG sub back. Now my concern is the labels are out dated and grading standards have changed .

Can i post that in this CSG tracking thread. That is what happened to my personal CSG subs.

Now i have to pay again to have my labels changed. So my order is not finished.

*how long does it take to get a sub finished under current CSG standards ? I am half way there and letting everyone know that the journey of my CSG sub is only 1/2 way there.

CSG might be good for noobs like you that only started grading now with CSG. Just stating exactly what happened , The noobs grading now might have a better experience and enjoy cheap, for cheap cards.


Walmart will always be walmart.

You are in walmart and enjoy walmart of TPG. nothing wrong, i shop at walmart sometimes.

*** Are you planning to quit in a month ? Cause if you have time, send them to PSA and just wait a couple months more , may cost you more now, but you will 2x your return in the future grading with PSA. "If you have the luxury of waiting." If you need money now, grade with CSG so you can recover from your mistakes.
I find it hilarious that Grade gets under people's skin (that is his main goal). According to him, things never change (like PSA will always remain on top and CSG will never increase in value). I'm guessing Grade just got back from shopping at Toys R Us for his kids, rented a movie at Blockbuster, and picked up some food at Bennigan's.

My order, received as the same time as yours, just went into grading. However, my order probably caused them a headache. Having a T206, 1941 Play Ball, 1950-52 Bowman's, vintage, modern, and a desert shield card in there probably led to a few issues in authentication.

You are definitely a vintage collector.

My family avoids those tables. More for you. Lucky.

If you have these old label slabs, do you count the second submission fees to relabel and new grading scale into cost with your 1st sub?

This was mostly a test order as I had not used CSG before but I love the grades I got, the 2012 cards were freshly pack pulled which no doubt helped. I did the SuperFractor just for protection purposes but was hoping it would get at least a 9 so overall very pleased.

While I am still overall pleased, I will say that "shipping" is not their strong suit. Even though it was marked as Shipped last Saturday, the label wasn't created until Monday and as of this second, its still in "Package Acceptance Pending." They mention they ship USPS slower than FedEx, they weren't kidding. I assume it'll be shipped sooner than later, just surprised its taking them almost as long to go to the post office as it took them to grade the cards.

This won't really help you and won't apply to most people, but I've been very happy with their shipping when I use my own UPS account. Usually it's on the truck before I even get a shipping notice.

That will be a nice submission and probably several Pop 1’s. Good luck.

This is crazy! My CSG BULK ORDER has been marked as shipped! I will do a totally blind reveal on IG when it arrives. Turn around time will eventually slow down as people become more comfortable with them and the market adjust, but I am loving not having to wait months to get an order back.

You will need a photo sharing service. I recommend Imgur.

Since my cards finally actually shipped I should have them soon. Really looking forward to seeing the cases in person and comparing their "regular" slab to the extra thick slab. Glad I waited until after the label change, I like the new ones a whole lot more than the green labels.

The one I sent to CSG has come back and it got the 8.5 I thought it would, but the sunset got a CSG 10. I sent 2 to PSA PRIOR to starting using CSG and those two popped this week and received PSA 10. I would highly recommend CSG, But PSA could be an option as well, but TAT is much longer.

Thank you. I find gold goes well with the new label. As you will agree the slabs look nicer in hand.

I can't wait to get my bulk order back!
