Day 72 and counting...

 

I'm not complaining or wish any ill will on anyone on the NCS and NGC staff...

 

On November 8, 2012 NCS received 4 medals on invoice 5413920.

 

Medals were conserved and shipped to NGC.

 

On December 5, 2012, NGC declared the medals as ineligible type.

 

An email was sent to NGC asking for the reason why the ineligible status was assigned.

 

December 10, 2012, NGC replied indicated it was an error for declaring the items as ineligible. I was told that the medals were shipped back to me and I must resubmit when received.

 

I received the medals from NGC.

 

To save on shipping costs. I combine the returned medals with additional medals on a new invoice. (I also requested reimbursement for the original shipping cost for the mix-up).

 

On December 26, 2012 the medals were received by NGC.

 

On January 23, 2013 the status of invoice 2782013 was updated to Scheduled for Grading.

 

A perspective: Original submittal was sent prior to 2012 Election Day (November 6, 2012). 2013 Inauguration Day (January 21, 2013) has come and passed. I predicting that I will have my medals back someday...Groundhog Day? Super Bowl Sunday? Mardi Gras? Valentine's Day? Or maybe President's Day?

 

Day 72 and counting...

Jees!!! What a task getting those medals through. I recall you saying something when I bragged about the 5 day turn around in December. Now they just got my next submission yesterday and you are still waiting. Looks like you will finish before I get the grades on this sweet one.

 

Good luck on HIGH GRADES!!!!

Won't you feel more satisfied overall once the ordeal ends? Having bumps along the way makes success that much sweeter!

 

It will make for great storytelling when it is in the rear view mirror!

Another satisfied customer, they should have expedited your submission when they recognized the mistake
