I just realized I was still subscribed to this thread - I don't even order from Sideshow anymore, blacklisted them sometime last year. Too much BS, rude employees on Twitter, etc.

I am thinking of unsubscribing because the majority of posts are from people desperately begging for codes before placing orders. Tired of reading those repetitive posts.
 
Ever since Sideshow stopped sending their shipping box codes I've made most of my purchases from BBTS. But a few weeks ago I wanted a figure that wasn't in stock at BBTS, so I ordered it from Sideshow. About a day or two after placing the order I received a message in my Sideshow account (as well as an e-mail) with a code for $25 off anything on their site. I had to use it within 2 weeks, which I did, and they sent me another code. It doesn't seem to have the one-code-per month limitation the box codes use to have. If they keep up with the codes, and I continue to accumulate rewards, Sideshow may just pull me back in!

I ordered 2 figures last month and only got one of those emails this past week. I think earlier in the thread someone was saying something similar--that they would order something and weeks later they would get the "Thanks for your order" coupon code. I haven't yet, but I'll be ordering End Game Cap with it.

And I've also stopped with the codes SS has been given out. I stopped several events ago when they started with the $1 and $2 codes (and didn't they also give out 50¢ ones too?). I know they add up eventually, but to me it's just not worth the effort. Even when the codes were $5, my wife would get really annoyed at me for constantly checking my phone and would tell me, "I'll give you the damn $5!" :lol It helped put it in perspective for me, especially once the code values went down.
 
They gave out just one $.50 code (during Spook 2017), but have also given out two $1.50 codes and three $2.50 codes. However, all of the codes they gave out since the last $2.50 code on 7/21/18 (mostly during Spook 2018 and Geeksgiving 2018) were all nice, even numbers. Almost all of the Spook 2018 codes were worth $1, but they also sprinkled in five $5 codes too.

Pre-ordered the Toys Fair Exclusive Stan Lee on Friday and no code yet. It seems very hit and miss.

Honestly the $1 or $2 codes are a joke. Some people cling so desperately for those it seems like. I get that free money is free money, but it’s more just a pain when it’s for such a small amount that I don’t even bother trying to redeem those codes. If I catch one for $5 or higher I’ll try and redeem it, but I don’t sweat it too much if I miss it.
 
Heads up:

Literally just got the Tapatalk notification for the no banter thread of the post an hour ago. That’s not gonna be ideal for codes with a short life span

Yeah. My reward code days are over if this keeps happening.

I was just about to post that I’m having issues as well with the Tapatalk notifications for the No Banter thread. They work fine for other threads though so no clue WTF is going on with that one. Missed the code from a couple days ago too because of it.

And whatever happened to Pixelpiper’s email notifications? Haven’t gotten one of those since like October.
