2014 Customer appreciation give away thread! Live on 11/1/2014

[dscott]

Hi guys as many of you know I decided that I would give a little something back to my customers that have done so much for me this year.

 

It is my hope that this goes well and we can try to make this a yearly event. Maybe even bi yearly depending on how well things go for www.ComicSketchArt.com & CGC SS Facilitation in 2015 and beyond.

 

This is going to go live on November 1st between 10am & 11am eastern time, I am posting this today to give people that dont visit the boards everyday a chance to see this post.

 

General participation info about the event:

 

 

1. There will be 1 gift a day, for 14 days. This does not mean only 14 items as some gifts will be for a set of slabs or other items.

 

2. Of the 14 gifts 11 will be public knowledge and 3 will be mystery gifts. The mystery gifts will be revealed on Nov 14th after the last gift is given away.

 

3. Shipping is free in the USA, if you are outside the country you are responsible for the shipping cost of any item you claim.

 

4. You must have spent $500 with me between Wizard World New Orleans and New York Comic Con 2014 to participate. You must also not find yourself in violation of rule #10. The $500 does not have to be for CGC items, it can be for OA, Commission pick ups or any services I offer on my site. The $500 does not have to be $500 of my fees. Just $500 total, so if you bought a $500 sketch opp slot and I only banked $25 off the purchase you still qualify. Any questions about your standing please send me a PM and ask.

 

5. You are able to claim one gift per person. So choose wisely.

 

6. Gifts will go to the 1st person to correctly claim them when they are listed.

 

7. In order to claim a gift you must quote my entire original post of that gift, along with some kind of take it, takeit, You do not need to use this sign. You just need to type out take it in some way.

 

8. If you fail to claim a gift correctly it will go to the 1st person below you, who correctly claims it.

 

9. You can trade gifts among each other if you like. If a trade is made please start a pm with me and the person you are trading with to confirm the trade.

 

10. If you are a friend or I did items for you at cost in exchange for your help in the future, you are sadly not eligible to compete. This is purely as a thank you for customers of mine from this year.

 

11. Gifts will be listed one a day, The 1st gift will be listed between 10am & 11am Eastern Time on 11/1/2014. When that gift is claimed ill post the time block for the next days gift.

 

12. Please be aware there are only 14 gifts total, there are over a 100 people who qualify to claim a gift. So be fast, be quick, most of all be respectful to each other, and have fun. Anyone who is found complaining in anyway or causing any drama what so ever will forfeit any gifts they have claimed and the right to claim any future gifts.

 

Failure to qualify or follow any of the above will result in your item being reoffered by me at a later date.

 

Mystery Box Reveal

 

Who won what

 

 

One last time, I want to thank everyone for participating and claiming over $3000 in gifts from this thread. Also thank you for supporting www.ComicSketchArt.com for your CGC SS & OA needs in 2014. Your continued business and support is the only reason we get to do what we do. Hopefully the trend will continue into 2015 and we can try to make this an annual or bi annual event.

 

I also want to say thank you to all my colleagues and caws (Rich Henn, NYComics, JJ, Dre, Torrey, Darrell, Adonis, Akoni, Evil Cody, James and many more) you guys have been a pleasure to work along side this year. I cant wait for 2015 to kick off with London!

 

 

Also a big thanks to the CGC team and in particular Mike Balent for the outstanding job he does each and every day as the head of SS.

I think that covers most of the details, if anyone has any questions about something I may have left out please ask. I want this to be as clear and fun as possible for everyone involved.

Am I doing it right?

[dscott]

Yep that's exactly what to do when I post an item.

 

Also it doesn't need to be $500 spent for CGC items. It can be for OA sales, commission pick ups, or any services provided on my website.

[dragonmgmt]

Bravo.

 

This is the kind of thing that definitely makes me want to spend more $$ on your services in 2015.

 

Looking forward to Nov 1!
