GMT Fall Special Sale!!!!!

Sale Duration: October 19 - November 5, 2010

Sale Discounts: We're having our Fall sale earlier this year, as our November is so full that we don't know that we could fill all of the orders by Christmas if we had the sale in November. So, from now until November 5, you can get the following deals:
· 20% discounts to all customers with no quantity limit or
· 50% discounts to P500 supporters - with quantities capped by the number of P500 games they have received in 2010.
Both specials apply only to GMT titles, not those from other companies whose games we sell on our website. And both specials DO apply to games already on the "Specials" page of our website (where games are already listed at 40-60% discounts). So you can get some amazing deals on those 20+ games on the Specials page.
Note that the eligible games include games which we have shipped already or are shipping now, ending with the 8 products we are shipping currently but NOT including our next game, Labyrinth. (You can still use a P500 order for that one, though, at roughly a 35% discount). Note that you ARE allowed to count Labyrinth, Barbarossa: Crimea, C&C Napoleonics, and The Spanish Civil War (the games we will ship in November) as games that make you eligible for the 50% discount if you have any of those games on order via P500 (or if you add an order for those now).
50% Discount to those of you who lost your jobs during the past couple of years and are recovering: We've been hearing from quite a few of you who are telling us that you are employed again, are beginning to recover a bit from the worst of the recession, and that some of you are even starting to buy some games again. That's great! We're really happy to hear that things are improving for you! We want to do all we can to help you on the game front, so we're going to extend the 50% discount offer to you guys, too, even if you didn't buy any P500 games this year. Specifically, if you are one of the guys that we sent free games to because you lost your job, you can use the 50% off special for purchases totaling up to $300. Eligible games are the same as noted above. We hope this will help you as you catch up a bit with your game collection.

Sale Details: 20% or 50% off on all IN-STOCK GMT (not UGG or Worthington or Consim Press) games:

• 20% Discount: Everyone automatically qualifies to get a 20% discount on any quantity of In-stock games. Use Coupon Code F1020 when you checkout to get the discount.
• P500 Supporters (or guys who lost your jobs and are recovering) 50% Discount: For every game that you received via P500 this year from the list below, you may buy ONE in-stock game at a 50% discount. So if you received four games from the list below via P500 ordering this year, you could buy four in-stock games at 50% off. The only limit here is how many games you received by P500 order in 2010. To get this discount, use the F1050 discount code when you check out instead of the 20% code). If you happen to be buying some games at 50% and others at 20%, please put them on separate orders so our online cart system doesn't go crazy on us! Thanks!

The "Tough Economy" Special Offer is Back!! We've run these specials twice in the past couple years, but we are STILL hearing from gamers who are out of work and we all know the economy is still pretty difficult. So, we are going to offer our tough economy special once again. Here are the details of the offer:

Many in the gaming community turn to games as a welcome respite from their day jobs, using money from those day jobs to buy the games. In these difficult times, some of our loyal customers have lost their day jobs. No jobs and no cash to buy games is a morale buster. Now, we can't help in the new job department, but one thing we can do is at least help you continue to enjoy the games while you are job hunting.


So, if you did not participate in our Tough Economy Special offer in 2008 OR 2009 and have lost your job since November 30, 2008 and remain unemployed, if you will provide verification of such status to Tony (a_curtis@sbcglobal.net) or the office folks by mail or phone or e-mail, we will send you TWO FREE IN-STOCK GAMES of your choice. Play them, Enjoy them, and know that we will keep this information private and wish you only the best for a quick recovery.
We hope you guys find this special helpful.
Overall, this was another terrific year for our P500 program, and all you guys who pre-order our games are the ones who make it work for us. So we just want to show our appreciation, as best we can, for your continuing support, even during some rough economic times. As we've said many times, P500 is the engine that allows us to produce games - without it and your support we would not have survived to celebrate 20 years producing games that you guys like! So thanks very much for your support - and we hope you enjoy these additional benefits of supporting our P500 program.
We hope you all enjoy this Fall Sale, and that you find several games you like at these great prices!

This, in my opinion, is the best traditional board wargaming company in existence today. It has excellent customer service, a great website, a great pre-order policy, and an awesome fall sale.

I own the entire Command & Colors series and will be getting the new Command & Colors: Napoleonics which releases next month. I also own a half dozen other games that they produce.

On top of that, they are a super generous company and annually run great sales (or give games away) for anyone who has lost their job in the past year. Even this year, they are giving two games away to unemployed folks who haven't participated in the offer before. Really outstanding generosity.
