Gen Con - Subscriber Discounts???


Customer Service

Liberty's Edge

I am going to be at GenCon this year. Is there anyway that I can get my subscriber discount when I drop a LOAD of cash on your products at your booth at GenCon?

Or is the discount only for online purchases? I have been sitting on the fence for a couple of items that I was going to purchase at Indy.

Thanks!

We're going to try to make it work, but we can't promise anything yet.


Suggestion?

For July (I'd suggest August but due to shipping times....) subscriber shipments you ship along a special "Subscriber" card... we have to show that at GenCon to get the discount.

Or something similar.

If they have it setup like last year, they can get your account info at the booth. I was a little puzzled when I got home (I live in Indy) and what I just bought was already in my purchase history.

Ooooo, will that hold true for Origins as well?

Would it be possible to include "deliver in person at Gen-Con" as a shipping option?

(ducks!)

We have that goal as well, but making it happen by Origins is less likely than making it happen by Gen Con.

That's probably not feasible for subscriptions, but it *might* be possible for preorders on some of the new major product releases (Pathfinder RPG Beta, Pathfinder Chronicles Campaign Setting, and one more thing that will be announced soon.) Maybe.

You just named two of the items I was planning on picking up there....I can pretty easily bet that the third item you hint at will end up on my list as well....

Thanks for the feedback!

Any word on whether or not this is gonna happen or not? I figure its been a couple of months, its reasonable to at least ask right?

This is really good, but, errmmmm, how? Will people have to use the same credit card as they do for subs? or something more complex?

Before GenCon all subscribers will receive an Official Pathfinder Decoder Ring that you will use to Decode a cryptic message at the Paizo booth that proves you are a Pathfinder Subscriber!

The same credit card would make it *very* easy for us, but we have other ways.

There's more server issues, Clear your cookies and come back to the messageboads... I lost about 30% of the posts from the west coast about 20 minutes ago (it was funny, because I couldn't see anything from the Paizo crew or Lilith at all.. so the PFS chat thread was rater empty)
