They haven't cashed yours yet?  Mine came out almost too fast.  My question is:  Who has already received their fun packs? 

I need to know if I can expect mine soon or if I need to start bugging my building manager because she signed for it and decided not to call me about it, ever ... Which happens with most things shipped to me.

They haven't cashed mine yet, either. Maybe they don't trust Superman personal checks?

Mine cleared, and it took two and a half weeks. Maybe you spelled WFMU wrong?

My guess is just that they have a lot of paper work from the marathon and a fairly small staff to manage it. Your check will probably be cashed soon, but you can always contact them directly to see if there are any problems.

Don't bug your building manager about the Fun Packs - they haven't gone out yet.

I'll give you a clearer idea when they will Very Soon.

Thanks!

Tom.

I've been volunteering to help with the premium mailings, and I think they're making good time copying all of the CDs and artwork and stuff, as compared to previous years.  I think Emily's right, too - there was one very nice guy there busily processing check after check and doing some sort of mysterious paperwork to keep everything in order.  So I really have no answer to your question, but I can tell you that a very few people are working pretty hard to catch up with a mountain of work.

I just can't wait to laugh when people try to tell me that my "Get Ready to Meet My Little Friend" shirt is a misprint.  And then they'll be like "Why are you laughing?"

But I'll just keep laughing.

Which will probably lead to shoving of me.

You may want to look into hiring a bodyguard.

The best thing to do is put all of your forthcoming schwag out of your mind, or otherwise it will become your own proverbial decoder pin. Forget about it for now, and you'll have a nice suprise in a couple of months or so.

  Oh, I'm not expecting my goodies any time too soon.  I just want that check out of the way.

I paid the $75 with Paypal (they had a little paypal button on the wfmu page after I submitted my info) the same night I pledged.... was I not supposed to do that? They never sent anything in the mail, so I think they got it and it worked out ok....right?

I paid my pledge with Paypal as well but I still got stuff in the mail asking me to select my DJ premiums and stuff.

Probably. If you paid it immediately, then you probably shouldn't get a bill. and you'll get the premium for the show you pledged to (unless you stated another preference, i think)

I paid my pledge with Paypal as well but I still got stuff in the mail asking me to select my DJ premiums and stuff.

that's probably because you are getting more than one premium.


Anyway, no one should really worry about anything. It will all get done, just maybe not instantly.

I have every confidence that all will go well, fellow spartan warrior.

I mailed in a bucket of nickels. It hasn't been sent back, so I assume it was received.
