Not really...not like COMC is going to discourage people from paying storage fees.

back in the day, when they were still working with Beckett, sellers had price limits, based on the Beckett price. Once Beckett was out of the picture, it was like the wild west when it came to pricing. Occasionally, we'd get an email reporting an incredibly high price on a card, so we'd email the seller and point out the price that was displayed - in case it was an error or something like that, and we'd suggest lowering the price to something closer to "market value" (whatever that meant).

I remember one seller who had a pair of MiLB cards of some journeyman player, and the cards were priced into the triple digits. So, I emailed the seller and suggested a price change, and he replies. Turned out the seller was the guy on the card, and he had them priced high just to show off to his buddies...

How do you know they are LAZY? Maybe they are overwhelmed or new or both ? What if you had to double or triple your work speed but couldnt catch up, does that make you lazy ?

One more data point..
Economy Rushed shipment requested (approx 70 cards) - 8/10
Expected shipping date - 8/25
Actual shipping date - 8/20.

Usually minutes, sometimes longer. For bigger items, I add them to my eBay watch list, and the app will notify me when I reduce the price over 5%.

Haven't used the Mailbox service in months but had an item arrive at start of week but no email with photo etc as per usual.

I take it just Covid delays? When to worry that seller hasn't included my Username on parcel in a case like this?

Did you include that inffo in your address? Or did you ask them to add it seperately?.

I have it automatically on my address name, like as follows;

COMC Mailbox, C/O: Username

Never had troubles before but I know, under normal pre-Covid circumstances, they say if you don't have the items show up in your account as processing to contact them.

I still have not received answers or resolutions to my issues they promised they would resolve over a month ago. E-Mails being ignored

They suck at customer service, like REALLY suck

Guess I will take to Twitter to attempt to get a response

Has anyone added a card to eBay auction but not showing up in the grading submission section?

Spam their Instagram, too...just to be sure. I'm not sure the same person watches both, these days.

Elite 1 Week batch due today...less than six hours left and no movement on the percentage. Usually they jump up a little right before the cards start to hit.

After having about 60% of my 5/8 due submission pop between mid and late July, I’ve gone 9 days without a single card being listed (after two weeks of getting about two cards every three days listed). Also still have a batch of 500 from 5/8 that has yet to go beyond 5% and has had zero listed.

I have a total of 26 batches from March to present that are not finished or even started ranging from 30 cards to 600 cards each...I am not worried about it they will get to them at some point.

My 5/8 has like 31 out of 200 live. Of course a few were the filler cards I got in a large purchase and didn’t pull them all out Bc I rushed to get them sent before the price changes. Oops.

Has the site been a bit slower for anyone else? I get that the traffic has increased ten-fold, just curious if anyone else is experiencing it.

Is there any way to turn off the emails of daily sales summaries and the other random emails that COMC sends? I looked in the profile area but did not see any communication options.

Thanks for any help!

Has anyone heard if they plan on doing BGS grading again anytime soon? As a Canadian, having an account and doing grading through them was pretty convenient. I have some BCCG and other off branded graded cards I want BGS slabbed

Highly doubt it’ll happen in the next year or two considering how far behind both comc and the grading companies are right now.

Yeah, there's almost no chance grading gets added back, unless they sign an exclusive deal with a brand new company like the comic book company that's jumping into grading cards. Remember, COMC cancelled their bulk submissions like three years ago after BGS bulk submissions started going past 6 months. It's currently taking PSA 6 weeks just to enter orders into their system, and then *maybe* 6 months later you might get a chance to see your cards again.

Do you need to do anything to trigger the discount? Had the first 3 cards (out of 600...) on a 3-week submission originally due 7/24 finally pop last night. They charged full price...
