What do we think the turn-around time for Modern Teir this week will be?

[WaxonWaxov]

My First Day of Issue Washingtons are hapily sitting at NGC as "received"

 

Given what has to be a mountain of "modern tier" coins received by NGC on Friday what do we think the turn-around time will be? I'm guessing a month.

[Dwaine]

It is currently at 22 which is where it has been for quite some time. I think it will go up to 26 or 28 days.

[jason888]

ouch!, they must be backed up with SMS junk.

[WaxonWaxov]

Not just that, there's Jamestown coins, Washington First day of Issue, 2007 Eagles, 2007 state proofs just came out, etc. etc. etc.

 

I'm changing my guess from a month to six weeks.

[stckplunge]

I still havent gotten my ASE anniversary sets back and they were there on the 12th of January! They told me on the phone today that maybe the end of this week will be mail day - that will be 31 business days!!!!!!!!!!

P.S. I need these because I sold more coins on eBay than I have - JK but it was very close!

[WaxonWaxov]

31 days is kinda unreasonable.

Shop At Home TV gets them returned the next day

Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!

 

We have a winner!

 

How could they have submitted their coins sooner? That means NGC MUST give them preferential treatment.

My latest Modern order was received on 1/16 and finalized/shipped on 2/19

What tier level do they submit? I bet it's not modern.

At least a month, unless your HSN..."-(

 

Plus to Commemorate the release of the New Prez Dollars, they raised the Special Modern Tier from $12.50 to $15.00..."-(

 

Wax... Did you submit thru the "Modern" or "Special Modern" Tier...?

 

It's my understanding to get the "First Day Issue" Label it has to go "Special Modern"...

[WaxonWaxov]

Well, actually I didn't know the "Special Modern" thing existed. I PM'ed Scott and he told me the service tier has been changed.

 

It seems to me that NGC can very easily predict these spikes in submissions based on the previously announced days of release of moderns. In other words, they know that the Monroe dollar is First Day of Issue May 18th.

 

NGC should try to handle these spikes the way retail stores prepare for Chirstmas... they know it's coming, so they get their poop togsther ahead of time.

I don't disagree, but I would imagine that finding qualified graders to come in only during peak is more challenging than hiring minimum wage workers for the holidays.

[WaxonWaxov]

Well, it's been 11 calendar days and my submission is still marked "received"

 

Come on, NGC you can do better that that.
