Yes but when you spend £2 on somthng to be posted you exspect it to be faster then a week. THATS my point! And also MY opinion! which i am allowed.. Im not here to cause arguments, i just think, it wud of been nice to have it before now.

If i may id like to jump in....

Id like to make a suggestion about photo distribution.
i came up with an idea that may help both SM out and
the people wishing to have their photo's posted....

would it not be a LOT easier...

instead of having slips printed off for people
to fill out their details, having all the envelopes the
photos are sent in, there on the day and pre stamped.

Then when somebody wishes to have their photo posted,
hand them an envelope to write their own name and
address on - so thats one less thing for sm to do...
then take a poloroid photo of the person, write which
guest they had a shoot with on the photo...and put that
with the envelope....

and maybe instead of waiting, have 1 crew member laying
out the photos that arrive and the other one scanning
over them as they come out and matching faces as they
go along...and when u see a match, pop the photo into the
envelope straight away, seal it and put it to the side.

That way you could be sorted by the end of the day/weekend
and it would just be a case of posting the lot the next day?

just a thought, might make it both easier for SM and for paying customers.

Whenever I've crewed and have been on photo distribution, I always match up the photos with the slips as we go along. I don't know if that happened this time or not though.

oh im sure they do, im just saying instead of takin time to print off slips and match up peoples descriptions of themsleves and then on top of that having to either print off the pics they have taken of people or look at them on the lil digital camera, why not make it less hassle for themselves.

I'm worried!  Nobody asked me for any money to post my photo   Will this be a problem?  I filled in a slip with my address and whatnot, though, but nobody said anything about money...

Mind you, I paid £2 postage for my Nathan Fillion photoshoot ticket which I had to pick up at the event - will that do instead, do you think?

I remember them saying to me its £2 for all photos, so they may have just kept that money and used that to post it?

[i_am_your_angel_of_music]

technically ive paid £4 for burns then lol

[Sazzzy]

Ah yes coz they havent refunded tosh and postage for the ones u didnt recieve, tut. lol

[i_am_your_angel_of_music]

yip yup lol tut!

[showmasters]

Just to let you all know

ALL PHOTOS HAVE GONE IN THE POST TODAY

They have been sent first class so should be with you by Wednesday at the very lastest. Please remember it is fathers day this weekend, as such Royal Mail have said some post in certain areas may take a little longer to reach its final destination. Please leave it until Wednesday before worrying.

Also... there are about 6 photos that we have not been able to send out. One was damaged and is in the process of being reprinted, some people didnt leave an adequate description and one person didnt even leave an address. If your photos dont arrive by Wednesday or you think one of these photos may be yours please email

info@collectormania.com

and we will make sure you get your picture.

Please note.... this time scale applies to UK deliveries only. Any over seas deliveries will obviously take longer to reach you.

Thanks.

Thanks for letting us know! I'll be keeping an even keener eye out for the postman, haha. I can't wait to get my photo

[Kinggodzillak]

[Sazzzy]

Yes, it's a shame it took them almost two weeks to dispatch the photos    They were not legally contracted to send them out the next day but it would've been good customer service and business sense to do so. Then again it's always been erratic. I once got one after two days, and another after a month.

I think there might be a postal strike in certain areas as well today?  If so that'll hold them up for a day or so.

At least we know they are on the way now though.

[i_am_your_angel_of_music]

[Psychosis]
