Paint Order Thread
Hey, guys! Sorry this will be a little long, but there’s a lot of important info you need to know and I know there will be questions. I decided to go with a FAQs approach (see post #2). However, If you think you already know everything and just want to order some paint, then just fill out this form.
-
What the FAQ?
- Is AO Army getting a discount on paint for LL7?
Yep. That’s why you’re reading this post. - How much will I be paying for paint?
I’m glad you asked. Your price will be $65 per case. - Great! How do I order my paint?
To keep things organized, paint orders will be handled through this form. - Do I really need to enter all of this information?
Only if you want to order paint. - Why?
For a number of reasons, including but not limited to, matching your order with your payment, matching your order and payment to your LL7 registration, and making sure we get you your paint at the event. - So, you’re not going to sell my info to a Nigerian prince?
Trust me. He already has your contact information and he doesn’t buy your information. He’s your distant relative. Your rich uncle gave him your info. - But I don’t want to provide all of this information.:cry:
Then, you can go back to the LL7 registration page and pay full price for your paint. - I don't have a PayPal account. Can I pay with my credit/debit card?
Yes. Please enter an email address into the "Payment Email Address" field. This will generate a PayPal payment link. At the bottom of the right column of that page, there's a link that says "Don't have a PayPal account?" Click on that and it will allow you go use a credit or debit card to pay without having a PayPal account. - I’m afraid to use PayPal, what are my other options?
You can leave the PayPal address blank and PM bbotts77 to make arrangements to mail him a money order. These are the only two options. - What if I don’t like those two payment options?
Tough tootles! Reread the answer to number 7. You can pay full price. - Are you made of money?
No. - I have not registered for LL7, yet. Can I order some paint?
No. We need to tie your paint order in with your registration. That is impossible if you have not yet registered. - Last year, people were entered into a raffle each month if they were registered with a certain number of cases of paint. If I buy paint through the group buy, do forfeit my raffle entry?
No. I will be placing an order for the paint that is paid for every month. This is part of the reason we need your real contact information and Registration ID. - What’s the cutoff date for paint orders for this group buy?
I have been told it is February. I do not currently know the exact date. But, I will update this when I do. - What kind of paint will they be serving up?
I don’t know, yet. I don’t think Sean even knows, yet. CPX is an Empire field. So, it will be something on the higher end of the Empire/RPS line. For LL6, they had Evil with the option to get Marballizer, instead, because of problems with the Evil at LL5. - What if I decide I want more paint?
Fill out the form again. It will send you another link to pay for your new order. - What if I decide I ordered too much paint?
If you have not already paid for it, do not pay for it. I will only be ordering the number of cases you have paid for in full. If you have already paid for it, then PM bbotts77. I will do my best to help you out. If there are fees associated with getting your money back to you. You will eat those fees. I will not. See question number 10. - What if I have non-AO guests coming?
Have them order paint using their personal/registration info and your AO Name, but have them add " - guest" to it (i.e. - "bbotts77 - guest"). This will allow us to link their paint order with their registrations for the monthly giveaways, but we will still know which one is the real you. - What about the "buy two cases, get a bag free" deal?
This does not apply to us. Our deal is still better. We are getting paint for $16.25/bag. The other deal gets you $16.66/bag (at best). - Can I buy just a bag or two?
No. This deal is for whole cases only. If you only want a bag or two, try to find someone with whom to split the case. - I like to drag my feet on things. What's the latest I can order paint with this deal?
I do too. I've always thought that "Why do something today that you can put off until tomorrow?" were excellent words to live by. It turns out, they're not. But, to answer your question, the final bulk paint order for this deal has to be in to CPX by the end of February. This being said, I am going to put a deadline of the 25th of February on this, so I have time to compile the order and Sean has time to get the order details in for the raffle entries. - What kind of paint will they have?
You have two options, Evil and Marballizer - What kind of paint should I order?
It's really up to you. The shell on Evil is thinner than that on the Marballizer. I, personally, prefer the Marballizer. - What if I have other questions?
Ask away, my friend. That’s one of the reasons for this thread.

excellent.
something not said is that paint will be 75$ preorder and 80$ at the door. so it's not alot but I'm estimating 2-3 cases a person and who doesnt want an extra 20$ in their pocket
there is a minimum order for this but I'm apperently good at negotiating.
-
Sounds good. Thanks! I prob wont put in my order til Jan or Feb though.
-
i'm registered but paint will have to wait until after Christmas.
-
cool. Ten bucks saved per case is ten bucks more for beer.

I have a potentially large-ish group of people that will be coming with me - Many of them do not have AO Screen Names - can I have them use my screen name and their registration number to order paint? OR will they need my name and registration to order the paint?

Excellent question. Go ahead and have them use their personal/registration info and your AO Screen Name with " - guest" added to it (i.e. "StygShore - guest"). That way, we can still get their paint orders associated with their registration for the giveaways but we'll know which is the real you.

Paint for me is cheaper getting it when i register for the event on there site at the $75 a case get a bag for free deal. Do i put in team automags so they know we have more people playing and buying paint.
-
there's a how to register on this subforum
-

I believe we get the same benefit buying at discount rate don't we? Otherwise, I am probably in the same boat since I will probably have 24+ cases on my account.
refigured my math - looks like CPX isn't really helping people out a ton that are putting in big paint orders - 27 cases discounted is $1755.000 - 27 (24 and 3 free ) cases pre-purchase = $1800.00 but its still at a discount - $1.67 a case roughly :(
seems like they could do better if we are purchasing a skid or two of paint.

I didn't say I was buying a pallet, I meant we as in AO as a whole would be buying a pallet+ of paint - or is interest in attending not nearly as high as expected?
