jeff1x Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Have these stopped? I usually buy stuff when my BD rolls around cause of the % off. I didnt get the email this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Adam's Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Unfortunately we had to stop it. A few less scrupulous people were taking advantage by creating multiple accounts with different birthdays to get the discount multiple times. It sucks when a few dishonest people ruin it for the group... which is why I'm working on a different system for this. Just trying to figure out a way to keep people from exploiting it.

Rich Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Unbelievable. Really? Just to save a couple of dollars you have to lower yourself to cheating? Unfortunately we had to stop it.

Team Adam's Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 As I've learned... people will go to some pretty crazy lengths to save any amount of money... even if its just a buck.

I've been in retail a long time and agree with you 100%. Sometimes I think it's a sickness or somebody trying to get away with something instead of just greed. People do strange things!!

goheels Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Wow. That's crazy, although it would explain why I couldn't use the discount when it said "expired". (Never saw an expiration date on the original email.) Dishonest people suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Hey, they cheat to get the 110% back deal too. And the military discount. So if you see things disappearing from Adam's, blame the cheaters who ruin it for others who could really use the discounts.

Team Adam's Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Not without someone manually getting copies of ID's or something. I'm looking into different customer loyalty programs and things like that where the customer will need a unique card or code to access their special discounts. 2012CC6.2, matts88yj, MAYBEN and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feets31 Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Maybe they need to be a member for over a year before the discount kicks in. You could also add that they must have made 5 previous orders or orders worth X number of dollars before being given their code. Anyone that has used any of the products would make 4 more orders in a year and spend at least $500. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I could keep it to 4 orders a year my wife would be very happy Nitelord 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stirthepot Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 i'm a big believer in karma. i would put the program back and let karma sort it out. karma logic = those that lie about more than one birthday will wind up with none - dead!

Team Adam's Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Don't worry guys... we will find a system that solves this problem, among others. A loyalty program has been one thats been requested for some time, and while it won't be a points system, it will be a special "club" that grants you access to the birthday discount as well as pre-sales on new products, chances to test products before they're released, early announcement of sales, and other benefits. Be patient... things like this don't happen overnight, but we are working on it. Smith and MAYBEN 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HFX Detailing Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 dylan, I am all in for a loyalty program. I was hooked after my first order. I already got % off my orders so not sure what else there is except samples or a larger discount here and there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
