[CLOSED] 2015 Christmas Pool!
on: November 13, 2015, 07:21:49 PM
Please Read the entire post, plus any following information on this thread. There are many little details, and if this isn't done right, you or someone else will miss out. Don't be that person. It won't kill you to read a bit, I promise.

Ok guys, lets get this started! Its the 2015 Christmas Pool, and not the kind you get in a bathing suit for. I'll admit, I've not done this before, but hopefully it won't come out disastrously, and I am blatantly ripping several pages out of Ashley's book to help things run smoothly. tattoosteve99 has graciously agreed to help me out, so please feel free to direct any questions to either of us.

Here are the rules:

Post Count:You must have 200 posts MINIMUM. No exceptions. Sorry, for you trustworthy new guys, but I promise we've all been there, and there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. It's just too easy to take advantage otherwise.
 
Value: Lets keep it at $25USD minimum. It seemed to work well last year, just be kind and don't gift something you don't want. Remember, this doesn't include postage, which can get pricey internationally. Please direct any questions you may have about the value of an item towards myself, or tattoosteve99. Gifts can be any item, but lets try to keep it in the spirit of the forum. So lets try to keep it to Multitools, Knives, EDC items, lights etc... Y'all get the idea.

Willingness of Cost: Please be prepared for shipping costs, especially if you are willing to ship internationally. If you aren't willing to ship outside your region, please let me know in the list so I can accommodate you as best as possible. If you can afford international shipping, please do so. It's Christmas, please be giving, and if my broke, cheap ass can scrounge together enough to ship internationally, I'm certain most of you can too.

Shipping date: Lets say have your Package shipped by December 4th, 2015, since we are getting this started a little later this year. If you can't or won't be able to ship by this date,do everyone a favor and don't join. Once you have shipped your package, pkease inform me of the tracking number, in order to make this process go as smoothly as possible.

Sign Up Deadline I will give this Pool a soft deadline of around 8am Central Time (Texas Time!) on November the 20th.  This will give you about two weeks to ship. What this means is that when I wake up in the morning on the 20th, I'm going to check my PM's and this thread. If you are not on the list in this thread OR have not sent me or tattoosteve99 your address by that time, I will remove you from the final list, and  you will not be participating. I will post here when I have closed the pool, to remove any ambiguity.

How to sign up: When you sign up I need your forum name, your location, and if you are willing to ship international. Example:(sLaughterMed-USA-Will ship WorldWide)

Age: Please obey your local laws and regulations. I'm putting a hard limit of 18 years old minimum, regardless of laws and restrictions. However, if (for example) your local and federal laws say you cannot carry a bladed object under the age of 21, and you are 20, don't sign up. At best, no one will notice, but if you lie, and violate any laws or regulations in the process, you could possibly get other forum members in serious hot water. Don't do that. Do the right thing. Thank you.

More Info If you can't post what you received as your gift please don't join! Last thing we want is MT.org without pics....

Reminder Again you must ship by December 4th, 2015. Remember shipping can be high so be prepared to pay the cost.

Copy and Paste Copy and paste list as we go so I can keep track. Y'all know the drill.

Merry Christmas, and happy gifting!
-Steven

Also, it has come to my attention that tracked shipping internationally is very expensive in many countries, as opposed to untracked. So, if tracked shipping is prohibitively expensive, untracked is fine. I would still appreciate receiving tracking numbers by PM whenever possible, and if not, let me know if you will be shipping untracked.
Thanks again guys, lets make this smething special!

Me too. :tu: You know I mean it doesn't get much better than this. Buying tools, getting tools, playing with tools  :whistle: and sending tools. Have you ever thought, I'd like that tool but I'm not sure? Or just realised you bought two of the same one? Why not give it away? Tis the season of giving.
