most people should have the stuff


the rest of you will be getting it after Christmas

sorry for the delay, I have been shipping out stuff in spare time.

Thanx Chris,

I was just curious because mine was a redemption and didn't get an email. Although it's football, I think Panini, and didn't know if you needed the actual card for it.

I have yet to see anything. Has anyone been able to get a reply from cgilmo about this matter? I have sent a few PMs over the last couple months, including one today and all my messages have been ignored. I know the stuff was free, but I spent almost an entire day on this site, with a pissed off wife, trying to win stuff.

Same here, I did win a card, but it's not like it was a super high dollar card so I have just given up.

If you guys who haven't received want pay pal replacements I would be glad to do that..

Does this mean that all prizes are supposed to have been shipped by now? I never received these:

2010 Topps Chrome Base Auto Mike Leake Redemption
2010 FCB Promo Black Parallel Brett Lawrie /10

Neither are worth sobbing about, but I thought I'd ask.

I'd pretty much forgot about this until about a week ago. I sent him a PM too and was ignored. Do I really care...I suppose not. It just sucks to have spent time doing something and "winning" and then not getting anything and being ignored when asking about it. I still love it here though...:).

There is a reason I didn't participate in the contest; the track record of consistency in terms of the shipment of true/physical contest prizes, when hosted by FCB, is pretty poor.

I will no longer purchase anything from FCB again either, as the last time I did, it took nearly two months to ship and the order was incomplete. When emailed about the oversight, Gilmore chose to ignore. I wouldn't have cared about a replacement if I would have received a simple acknowledgment.

I didn't leave negative feedback because I feared retaliation here on FCB. I am not part of the insiders' crew, nor a flunky, and therefore are expendable. Heck, this post may be my last as well, if I ruffle the wrong feathers, so I'll take a screen shot for posterity's sake.

I had been burned twice before that I remember on "prizes". One was for Christmas 09 giveaways. He came in and picked a random MT poster (me) and told me he was sending me a printing plate set for the Tim Beckham FCB promo cards. After a couple of months, he said he forgot... then it was they were in the shipper ready to go to the P.O.... then just nothing. I believe there was one other time, but I've forgotten the details.

I don't think its anything personal. I was in the same boat and send a couple of emails a couple of weeks back. I thought i was being ignored too but emailed a third time and must have got him at a good time, he responded within minutes and had some paypal, Thank you Chris and i say be patient he must have been busy.
