I don't understand why everyone is so pissed about the bonus reward program ending?? It just sounds like a bunch of people are whining because of there own laziness to send in there stickers and now they have all these FREE points that they can't redeem? So that's Columbia's fault right?? Not...I too have some stickers and bag tags but instead I'm going to say "thanks" Columbia for running such a great program!! This was something that Columbia and only Columbia did, it was a great program that was FREE of charge. I'm more concerned about the good people that are out of jobs as of April 8th.

NOT EXACTLY SO SIR. most pro shops do not send in the stickers on a DAILY BASIS. we sent ours in around the middle of dec. 06, and since then we have
accumlated many more. we would have probably sent them in by the end of feb. 07.
again we don't pull 2 stickers off ball box's and run to the mail box with them.
and when your shop is busy, and you get in a large delivery of balls bags shoes etc., it does take time to pull all those stickers of the ball box's and put them on the sheet. especially if your checking in 30-40 balls. while waiting on customers.
so not complaining about not sending in stickers that we may have accumlated in the last month.
as for this program being called great. i don't think so, it was time consuming on both ends. a simple discount would have been much easier for both parties. like 4-1 etc.
and i feel that columbia / ebonite should allow all pro shops to send in their stickers now. but we all received a notice several days after the buyout, that the program was ended and no more stickers would be accepted.
you see, some pro shops are very busy in the dec. / jan. feb. time frame. and don't have the time to run to the mail box with 2-3 stickers at a time. so they may send them in all at once. that's not being lazy sir, that's being busy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry Sir we can get to the mail box because I'm to busy?? Please it's called time management. If the program was that important to a shop operator then it should of been completed in a timely manner. Weekly, monthly or daily.
just as scotts33 said "to bad so sad" it's not Columbia fault for GIVING you a FREE program that YOU couldn't manage.
I guess its the old what have you done for me lately theory. Once again thank Columbia for putting such a great program together that I couldn't get from anyone else!!

A little notice? I'm sure they would have if they would of known that the company they work for was going to be sold? Maybe they should of went to a fortune teller?? Yeah there's an idea!!
Shame on you Columbia for not being able to see the future and give proper notice of when your company is going to be sold, shame, shame, shame!!!!!
and by the way its boxers not briefs and tea not coffee.
I'm out!!

If the program was that important to you, you should have ran to the mailbox with every sheet. It's not Columbia fault that you decided to save all/most of your sheets. I signed up on this program from the start and never once was told by them or any rep that I should save my sheets before I turn them in, so I think that was the way you decided to do it.

I had over 30,000 points in the system at the time the company was sold.
The night I heard of the sale, I went online, redeemed all my points and just received all my gift cards today.
I did send in one last sheet just to see if the points get counted. If not, oh well. It was fun while it lasted......

first, i did not expect a company who we have been dealing with for over 30 plus years to be sold!!!!!!!!!!!!!
second, we usually send in about 8-10 sheets at a time.
third, we have received just about all of our points and rewards.
forth, you need to have a certain amount of points to cash out anyway.
so i see no point in sending one sheet at a time. i believe the amount
of points needed to redeem is 25,000. so one sheet will not make much
of a difference.
fifth, i still feel that even tho the company was sold, they or ebonite
should have given the shops X amount of time to send in any stickers.
to say, we have been sold, and no more stickers as of yesterday.
was low. however they did give shops time to cash out their points.
sixth, i so glad you have the time to mail in one sheet at a time. to me,
mailing in one sheet at a time is a waste of postage.
