If you upgrade, does it get added on to your current membership?

Since my first CGC sub arrived there yesterday, how do they show when your cards are scheduled for grading?

It will be under your submissions page in your profile. It will show when CGC checks them in, and then the different stages as they move through the process.

Just sent out a 45 card bulk order. The NEWFAVE code worked for a second order. Figured I would submit it using the code. If they say I already used it on the previous order, no harm.

Quick submit is so awesome. One of the best features a grading company can offer.

I'm not sending anything crazy. Zard SIR from 151, Gengar ex, some Steam Siege stuff I had sitting in boxes, newer Zard's from the latest sets.

I totally agree. The only thing you cannot do is a mixed order. It has to be TCG or sports.

Great to hear.

Despite having the highest growth rate of any grading service in 2025, our turnaround times have actually come down in recent months as our investments start to pay off for us and our customers.
Hell yeah.

They are killing it and people are beginning to realize CGC is not what content creators and vendors say they are. They are focused on improving for the benefit of their customers and not just for their bottom line like the company with a 6-8 month turnaround time.

Sending out a 45 card bulk order tomorrow. 3rd CGC sub overall, but first time using bulk. Had to take advantage of the savings while they lasted. 33 tcg and 12 sports.
