| Hey all FBHQ users, So my name is Miles, and I am the owner of Creekwood Fingerboard Store. We are based in the USA, and are growing, and adding products weekly, well maybe even daily! So here is what I want to do, Share the Deck Challenge is something I have wanted to do for ever! In this, I will create a Creekwood G6. It will be shipped to you buy the previous "owner." You will sign it (try to keep it small so everyone can sign please)... Hopefully this deck will travel the world, one house and rider at a time! This is also a great way to try the G6 shape. If you like it, you can buy your own! To do this, you must pay a fee of $2.00. This will allow me to make the deck, and all the time it will take to send you the address of the next owner, etc... You can send the payment to mf1films@gmail.com via Paypal. I should finish the deck within a few days. And we will send it out in roughly 1-2 weeks so we can get good list of people on the list... Please keep the deck for 3 days at MAX. There are other people who want to use it! Plese ship via USPS, or whatever is cheap in forein countries... Tracking is a good idea, but not needed, unless you want people to hate on you if they don't get it, IMO. I hope alot of people try this, beacuse it will be fun and just a great way to try a new deck! You will have to include you address in the Paypal Payment. Then I will message you via email, or FBHQ saying you need to send it, or look out, its comin! Just for FBHQ members only PLEASE~Thanks Hope this is great, and go send the money so your on the list, Thanks, and have a great day, Miles F Creekwood FBS mf1films@gmail.comwww.creekwoodfbs.comPlease ship in Bubble Mailers with Bubble Rap! This will ensure it will make it safely to its destinatin! Shipping in the USA is only about $1.50, so it is very cheap Shipping List~ 1. TMG U.K. 1. Kerry W 2. Danny H Now free due to numerous emails! If you have payed, you are on the list first!

| i have a question, how much does it really cost you to make a deck? you say you can sell a blemish at 5$. That was just human error and has everything else, but just not that appealing to the eye. So why do we have tou pay, to help out? isnt paying for shipping a big hassle? i mean you have to buy the mailer go to the post office. i mean it should only be like a buck |

| Yeah, I may change it.
Its the time it takes me to message everyone, telling who they have to send to next, and the deck cost... It will now be $2.00
But when you think about it, No matter if 50 people do it, its still $2 to test a deck, and be part of something cool. IMO |

| and if 50 people do it you get 100 dollars. You're making ONE deck. As a promo event. We all pay to ship it to each other, so, yea. This is as retarded as paying to enter ride to glory or hit the line.
In a way, its ADVERTISTING for you. I don't pay to be allowed to have pop ups on the internet, they pay so they can be on sites and I see them. You're asking US to pay for something you should pay for.
This is a really good idea, just, make it free. Its one deck ffs. Maybe just get 5 dollars? I know how insanely cheap US shipping is, so, yea. If you must, get enough money off people to cover the cost of the deck, maybe shipping as well, then thats it. You don't get paid to answer PMs and do something fun that involves answering PMs..
Honestly. This was a really rad idea, but then you tried to capitalise off it. Put some fucking effort in and realise the massive benefit you'll get from people trying your product, and stop trying to charge people. Next we'll be paying every time we sign into FBHQ >_<
As I say, I can understand paying to cover the intial cost of the deck, but, thats it. I'd help out if I wasn't totally skint. I'd really like to be part of this, but, honestly, you charging for it is insane, and, well, you've lost a bit of respect from me trying to charge people for a promo event that costs you only once, under 10 dollars. |

| i agree with the above. cool if its free....its advertising on your part miles......everyone will get to try your deck, if 50 people try it and 5 people love it, thats 5 new customers...... i used to be part of a denim forum, (well i still am, but i dont seem to go their much these days)...and they do the same thing on their.....but, the company owner sends a pair of $300 jeans for free to everyone to wear for a month, and they get sent on around the world...... id be in on it, and i guess it would be a bit like the jeans.......not evryone wants to be last...or near the end, and get a deck which has been cained........also, when the 'tour' has finished who gets the deck?......miles after we have all paid for it?...... i think maybe people send you something more like 50 cents each....thats fair imo.. ..each person has to pay for posting it on....keep it for 3 days and pay 2 dollars? ft. also not everyone who would want to take part has paypal, and i think it should be all about fun, not profit, hell, id make a deck and send it around for free, as long as i could count on everyone to send it on.. |

| No, whoever is the last person to sign up, or I may raffle it...
You have to realize it is very time consuming... I have to gather all the info, then worry about sending the person the address ever 3 days of the next person, etc.
This has already been hard in the last 12hrs. I have gotten about 100 emails asking about it, so as you can see, not a 2 hr thingy. |

| you dont have to do nowt other than make a deck............you send it to someone, THEY send it on, the person who receives it next emails the person b4 their address, not you?........trust me its alot easier than your making out...... time consuming?...i thought you make decks for a living?....... im not trying to start an argument, i just think it should be about fun, not profit. after all promotion is worth more than the price of a very expensive deck... i think its a great idea, and props to you for wanting to do it, but, it should be about the fun and potential customers |

| just make it free its not that hard. if you can afford to send out sponsor packs you can offer to make ONE free deck. its not that hard. you have to think about your customers as well. |
