I will not give discounts... in fact I will do better than this
Due to my incompetence in adding discount coupons to my Paypal buttons, so OSC viewers could get a better price, I gave up on it and will do something better.
Who am I trying to fool? We are gamers, yes gamers also like art, but who doesn't like to unbox a nice piece of gaming equipment?
So I will raffle a mechanical keyboard and a gaming mouse among the buyers of my prints. Every 5 prints sold to viewers will make the buyers eligible to a raffle. It will start with PiG's stream, but I will consider extending it to OSC tournaments. Here is how it works:
- A round of 5 buyers will be eligible for the keyboard. A random buyer is picked, he/she takes the keyboard and this name is removed;
- A random name from the remaining 4 buyers will be picked for the mouse.
- The winner of keyboard may change the prize to 3h of PiG's coaching.
So what is great about it? In addition to taking home one of my carefully curated fine prints, people have a 20% chance of winning a ~120AUD gaming keyboard and a 25% chance of winning a ~60AUD gaming mouse. Shipping is on me. You won't see such a high chance of winning a valuable prize anywhere. I might do a rotation of prizes, like a video card, headset...
We are still choosing what keyboards and mice will be offered as options, I will let you know soon. Many thanks to PiG for agreeing to host the the SSfp raffles.
Some guys pointed me yesterday to retailers in AU, now I will have to find retailer in NZ and other SEA countries should people from abroad want to try it.
The winners of the raffles will be able to choose their equipment up to 120AUD for keyboard and 60AUD for mouse, excluding shipping. If winner is not from AU/NZ, the currency conversion is applied to these caps.
This gives more flexibility for the winners (gamers like to choose their stuff) while also avoiding any problems of local retailers not having a particular item offered in the raffle. Thanks PiG for the suggestion, I agree it is the best to do.
If you guys would like to know more about it, just ask. If this is successful, I will do a rotation of prizes over time.
