Idea for Pre-order

I was thinking for the next PCSC Exclusive, to maybe do something different.

Open the pre-orders for 24 hours. Print out all the email addresses, then put them in a hat and draw the winners out live on video which I would put on our Facebook

Thoughts ?

It sounds like a cool idea but I think the potential for having someone break the honor code is much higher if people have 24 hours to create a whole lot of emails and submit them into the drawing.

I kind of like having some control over if I get one or not by sending an email...not to mention it's exciting both up till the email time comes and after the email is sent awaiting feedback. Doesn't always work out that you get one but at least you have some part in the process by meeting whatever the criteria is.

Certainly sounds more fair... but not as fun. And sounds easy to cheat. Tough call TBH.

No Offence but I don't think that's a good idea that will make thins even more difficult to get one since is more like a raffle than a Pre order

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Sideshow did that once with the Mummy PF Excl. and a riot broke out.

Keep it the way it is, imo.

Comic Con and Sideshow do it on their website. You have to keep refreshing at a certain time. That's the best I can think of.

Do you think you could enable that capability on your website Jerry?

Edit: Guys, lets try and offer up solutions.

Idea:

Do not mention when a statue will be up. Just randomly put it on your website so that those that frequent your website will be the ones to get it.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.
