Free poster from MerchNow?

I was considering ordering a T-shirt for a friend for Xmas, then I saw the banner on Ziltoid's page. Free autographed poster with any purchase. Anyone else taken advantage of this offer? I'm a little worried b/c their was no mention of the poster on the MerchNow page or my checkout page. I'd've rather had a different shirt than the few that were offered (I linked from Ziltoid's page, but no Ziltoid shirt available?), but I got the Terria shirt. Guess we'll see. :)

Whoa, I didn't even notice that before.

Maybe Tracy can clear up the confusion.

I ordered a couple shirts to get the poster. The website said it could take

a week to process the order regardless of shipment method selected.

So if it shows within two weeks I'll be happy :) If there is no poster,

I'll still have some sweet T-shirts so I win either way

I don't recall seeing a message like that on my order. I know it said to place the order before the 16th to gurantee delievery before xmas. That's kind of an odd date since the 16th is a Sunday (USPS closed). Seems like they'd have said 15th or 17th, right? Ah well. I'm really counting on the poster, it's the reason I made the order. The person I'm buying for will be pleased with this Terria shirt either way, but he'd really love the poster bonus. If I were just gonna get him a shirt, I'd've picked a different one that didn't have the bonus.

What shirts did you get, Kyl88?

Alright, got it.

On the upper right hand side of the MerchNow thing, you'll see little flash ads for the free posters for the various bands. The Dev is among them. I saw Darkest Hour and Dead In The Headights (or something to that effect), too.

I think he's the only one autographing them, though.

I dunno man, I don't think you should dismiss the missing poster so easily. I got mine today too and no poster nor any mention of it. I'm suspicious. You and I ordered right away and this thread doesn't have much action. Did all the posters really get sent out so quickly? I ordered the very next day after the promotional banner was first seen. Also, I would have bought my friend a DIFFERENT shirt if not for this poster promo. Because the shirt choices are limited, it makes me wonder if maybe this was a ploy to dump old stock?

I don't like to make accusations like that when I don't have the proper information, but I wouldn't *have* to be doing this if there had at least been some explanation for it. Just a card saying "Sorry, promo's ran out" or something would have been fine. Instead I got a few "cards" advertising other shit that I should buy from them. :evil:

ya, so i ordered on the 16th of december (which i beleive to be the day the promotion started) but i didnt recieve the poster either...bit dissapointed because that offer really motivated me to buy a shirt ( i was always going to but this gave me an extra incentive).

Anyway, i hope an explanation or something i offered on this matter..

Cheers
