Black Friday Sale and Pins

cabbie98cabbie98 Registered User regular
Mike just put up a new post with pin related news for Black Friday. There seem to be some good deals and the tiered rewards are back.

Mike's Post

There is a Christmas Carol themed pin set for $30.

And the blind boxes are finally available at $14 for two pins!

I think I am most excited for the Strip Search DVD set though.

    "Most excellent!"

    I've been saving my most recent Club PA discount since I heard that Strip Search was imminent.

    The products will go live Friday? I've looked and also attempted possible product URL's to no avail.

    Take my money PA, please :)

    No pin poster this year it seems. But if I remember from last year, that was a specific deal if you bought 2 or more pin sets

    10% off blind boxes? I'd be wasting money by NOT buying them!

    I figure 5 is a good solid number for me. Then I can still get the Christmas set and the stripsearch blurays and not go too crazy.

    As I've started collecting recently, the blind boxes seem like a great idea for me to hopefully pick up a bunch of Prime and East pins that I have not seen in the wild yet. Super excited. Also, the christmas set looks great this year. Merch Ahoy!

    Gonna try out shopmate.auspost.com.au along with

    Simply enter the promotional code XMAS2014 when you pay for your shipping at the ShopMate checkout.

    I think you quoted the wrong person, but I heard someone on here saying a staff member had told them they were looking at ways to avoid that happening.

    I hope they announce a poster for the Black Friday sale. That's how I'm displaying my Year 1 pins, and I'd love to do the same for Year 2.

    Ok two things, just realised that my second 6 month Club PA discount was 5% and not 10% (as intended and detailed in the email to me but I just didn't pay enought attention), and my wife is going to go nuts when that line goes through on the credit card statement for the order I just placed

    No, the email should have had a 5% discount code and a $10 store credit code, that's what it says on both the sign up perks list and the email I got...

    Just confirmed in the Gazelle:

    news_bonusposter2014.jpg

    Although it seems it's only going to be for PA pins, not partner pins. They said it's for 2 sets of any pins, but not sure if that includes blind boxes..

    EDIT: Oh wait the email says they're not.

    Just waiting on my club pa email now to get the code, hopefully it will arrive soon, since they do them by hand, I'm sure that's not easy around this time of year.

    Considering the holiday, you might be waiting a bit. When did you sign up? It could take up to or more than a week to get that stuff.

    I signed up on the 18th nov, but received an email on the 22nd from the penny arcade guys that they try and complete a batch by hand every fortnight or so, hopefully mine will be in this batch coming up, as I saw someone mention they received their email around the 14th.

    One can only hope ::biggrin:

    I got the same. I'm hoping one of these blind boxes offsets the $60USD postage cost :P *youch*

    Yeah spot on, it's just that for some reason I thought I got 10% off 6 months ago but I just checked and it was 5%. I must have had a man look! :)

    Two Christmas sets and a single Mystery Box. That's a good start for me.

    Also, thrilled we're getting a pin poster again. The brain squirrels want my pins in tiny colorful boxes.

    Just ordered more Secret Boxes than I dare say.

    Okay, 20.

    I'll be sure to post a pic of all I get for statistical purposes :)
