I resently recieved this E-Mail about stickers from palmer pursuit about free stickers. It seems like i got almost the same letter from almost 7 companies...
______________________________________________
"Howdy folks,
It seems that one of the internet groups is on a sticker drive and it has become very obvious.
Obvious, because too many of you have used the same spiel and some didn’t bother to hide the dozens of addresses that they sent the same message too.
If all of you that have stated that they have recently been buying are products, would really have done so, we would all be in better shape.
Honesty is always the best policy."
______________________________________________
Do you think this will cause a problem with free stickers?

No more free stickers for you.

Glenn palmer = Smart man
Every other company is still giving away stickers, except they will be getting more and more suspicious if you just make one message and insert 30+ addresses, send them one at a time.
Side note, got more kapp stickers today.

People are stupid, they are sending the same e-mail to 30 companies all at the same time, so the companies on the recieving end can say, "Hey, they said the same thing to us, WGP, KAPP, SP, Freeflow, Empire, PMI, etc...."

I know, i make it specific to each company
Like PMI - i bought a piranha and detonator
Kapp - reflex cocker
Crossfire - tank
AKA - Viking
Peoples lazyness has come back to haunt them.

I got the same e-mail from palmers. I sent out the letters one at a time, and each one was different. It's just because most of us were using the same letter with a few differences in it.

What? Who wrote that e-mail? It's terrible.
First off, it's "our" and not "are". Secondly, it's all disjoint, a complete run on, and just poorly written. We trust these guys to make our paintball gear? Tsk Tsk...
oh, and I never understood companies not handing out free stickers anyway. Yes, it costs them money, but it should come out of their advertising budget as that's what they are.

I dunno about you, but the sticker companies I sent off to I actually owned their products. Interestingly, mostly all my gear is Dye, they never gave me stickers. At the time, my marker was SP, they never gave me products. But hey, Bob gave me stickers at the time, and now look what I rock :)

I was actually smart enough to send each company a different e-mail, only addressed TO THEM, so this wouldn't happen.
Don't mean to brag, but when you use a generic e-mail and add 30 other addresses, it kind of shows your stupidity.

07-02-2004, 08:19 AM
What ever happened to when companies used to send you free stickers whenever you bought a product of theirs? The only stickers I've ever gotten from a paintball company was a dye sticker from my tank cover and a whole page of "revolution" stickers when I ordered from pbfanatics.com

So far, I've gotten stickers from PB2X, PMI\RP, 32 Degrees, CO Paintball, JT, Eclipse (2x), and Custom Products.
I figure I'll double up on the JTs, PB2X, and PMI. I've already doubled my Eclipse and later I'll double the CP but to my step-dad's address.
I'm going to worry about Worr, Dye, Smart Parts, etc. if I go to the World Cup this year to watch. Speaking of, I need to start saving my money!
