Title: 2012 Calendar available to order now.
Post by: Top Cat on December 21, 2011, 09:47:21 pm
Ok guys the calendar is nearly finished, we have had to replace one picture that wasnt hi enough resolution for print. Once we have the replacement ready we will be good to go.

The guy putting these together for us has done an amazing job i have seen a preview.  :pomppomp:

He is doing this on his own at his work place and they are not working in between Christmas and the new-year. This means they wont be ready until early January. Also he has a life and we cant expect him to be going to the post office a couple of times a day posting them out so he will be sending them out in batches. This will mean that there might be a day or 2 delay after payment has been sent, before it gets posted to you, he will probably send them out weekly so maybe all payments in by the Wednesday of each individual week to then be  posted on the Friday.  :santa:

Also we need to point out that this is not a factory order and Amazon are not involved in getting them to you. If you expect them to be on your door mat ten seconds after funds transfer then please dont order one. This is just a little forum calendar to help raise funds for the running of the forum and Nick is being amazing making these up for us, so again i reiterate please be patient waiting for your calendar.   :drinking: I would like to point out there were no problems last year with orders.  :wink:

The calendar will be either a desk top/ cd case style or a wall hung version, the choice is yours.  :happy2:
To order please PM Nick in the first instance and he can then pass onto you more specific order details.  Nick's member name for the PM's NB07

And here is a nice little tease of the calendar format and quality you can expect. It is amazing quality  for £9 pound delivered.  :xmaspresent: :xmaspresent: :xmaspresent:

                                            Thank you all very much for supporting your forum.  :drinking:

If you want one of each style of calendar, is it just 2 x £9 or is there a saving on postage? 

Happy to pay £18, just thought I'd ask before anyone else does!  :xmassmiley:

There might be a slight saving ( i am guessing ) but there is no margin on these, so i doubt it buddy. Ask Nick in your PM for the order.  :drinking:

By the way, which picture has been replaced?  :xmassmiley:
Title: Re: 2012 Calendar available to order now.
Post by: NB07 on December 22, 2011, 08:56:46 am
Hi guys, i will be doing the calendars at cost price as usual because im not here to make a profit but i owe a lot to this forum. This year the cost of paper and postage has gone up substantially but im keeping the cost as low as possible and there is a healthy donation to the forum included so im afraid i cant give any discount this year but they are more than worth it trust me!  :wink:

The picture that needed to be replaced was S800 BRN's, although i personally thought this was one of the best shots, i spoke to Scott and explained that for printing the resolution needs to be higher which is a shame as he didnt have a better version available. When viewing online a 72dpi photo can look fine but printing it is another story.

I will be taking orders weekly and printing them in batches, so the deadline is the wednesday of each week then they will be printed and posted on the Thursday hopefully you will receive them on the friday.

And yes Mike the font is 911 Porscha  :happy2:

Hopefully people will like the calendars, im sure they will but i always like constructive criticism anyway!  :xmassmiley:

Hi Nick / Top Cat,

Thanks very much, I received mine today, and the quality is superb. You can pay more for calenders of half the quality on the high street.

All the pictures are brilliant, too.
