Gift Cetificates

Post by Ama » Sat Nov 07, 2009 10:25 am

Hi everyone!

I couldn't find anything about it, so...

I wanna give a good friend of mine a nice present for her coming off age and thought about some voucher from SN, cause she is just as addicted as me ;-)
Now I see that there's already a possibility to order premade gift certificates at the shop - how does that work?
I put the smaller one in my cart and I' m kind of confused, cause it says that i have to pay shipping costs? I thought it would be send out via email? :?:

Thanks for your help!

I will tell you that I won't have this figured out untilI can talk to Karen. I hope to have an answer for you early next week.

No problem, Jen!

Thank you for your effort! And I'm looking forward for the results :D

For the time being I'll give my friend a selfmade-voucher and the real gift certificate just a few days later.

Thanks!

Ama,
So far I can tell our website is not coded to purchase only Gift Certificates without tacking on the base shipping charge. I think most have purchased Gift Certificates in the past along with other items to be shipped, so this is really the first time it has come up. The Gift Certificates don't add weight to the order. My best advice if you want to purchase only a Gift Certificate is to send an email through the 'Contact Us' page on the website and see if they can handle that for you.

Another alternative would be to consider a lippie and a glow powder to go with the GC. That one all depends on where you live and the cost of the base shipping.

Jen - Has there been talk abt a customizable gift cert? Where the purchaser chooses the amt of the GC? With holidays around the corner, I was just wondering... ;) TIA

Thank you, Jen! :D

I think I'll order some PP and Silk Powder refills along the way, or one or two lippies - as if I couldn't find something I desperately need from Karen's creations ;)

I am sure if there is an amount we are missing, we can easily add it. What did you have in mind? For our small staff customizable GCs might be a bit of a stretch to manage, but who knows?

Jen - I didn't have a specific amt in mind but was going to put a gc on my wishlist for Christmas. I don't know what family gift budgets are going to look like this holiday season!! I wasn't sure from reading the GC page if the GC is just an email with a code or number to redeem or if a hard copy certificate is also sent. Thanks!
