Summer Sale Coming

Hi everyone.  Summer has started and business is slow, SO it’s probably time for a sale.  But wait a minute, there’s a problem.  The last sale we had was only on DOWNLOADS and I promised that the next one would be on DVD products.  Well because DVD sales are processed through Pay Pal, there is no way to automatically apply the discount to your purchases.  Believe me, I’ve tried to get them to explain how to do this and they say that there IS NO WAY.  It was easy with the download products because the download host applied the discount before sending the transaction over to Pay Pal for processing.

SO, how would you all feel about a sale where you pay full price and within a couple of days, I will refund you the discount amount?  This will be a hassle for us, but I can’t figure out any other way to do it.  I’m willing if you are.

I am going to wait for comments and replies for a day or two before I do anything.

Sounds like a workable plan, but why not just do again the downloads. The results for the buyer will mostly be the same, we'll get some fine models and also help you thru the slow summer sales period.

Thanks, Rick

Could you temporarily reduce the prices of the disks instead of applying a discount?

I vote for downloads.

I agree. Downloads please!

A few thoughts:

For a short period of time reduce the cost of the DVD's. After the sale ends reset.

Release new products like the long promised hotel.

How about a sale on the shingles?

I vote for a sale on shingles and/or downloads. I already have all the DVD's that I am interested in, but would download a building or two that I don't have.
