Hello all,
I recently received some pretty distressing news.
One of the companies that my main supplier buys from has permenantly gone out of business. My supply bought out the remainder of their stock, but this means that what it left is all that will ever be available. One of my favorites settings in silver, is already forever, unless someone can recreate it. This also means that while I am struggling to stock up on the pieces I use most and to find other suppliers who might carry the same stock so I can buy from them too, several of the pieces I have made will never be available again in that exact style. One of them, happens to be the montana blue necklace I will be posting soon. This leaves me with the excrutiating decision of selling it or keeping it for my personal collection. I will need to compile a list of affected designs, but so far, Grecian Grace, Elizabeths Charms, ALL cuffs and several of my unlisted designs are affected by this. As a designer, this is akin to a tragedy.
As of now, the affected designs are officially LIMITED EDITION designs, and once I run out of stock of the pieces, I will no longer be able to offer these exact designs. If enough interested is expressed, I may create alternatives, but in the meantime, I am left to purchase as many pieces as I can afford at a time.

Ahoy!
So, I know that it is already mid-February, but we'll give this a try anyway.

Birthday discounts!!

What: Free shipping and a 10% discount on one order during the month of your birthday!
Since it is only valid on one order, make it count! I will be keeping tabs =)

How: Unfortunately PayPal does not offer coupons as part of their services, so discounts are applied via partial refunds.
If you shop via etsy or the BA website, your shipping fee and 10% of the total of your order before shipping, is refunded back to you.
If shop with me directly through myspace or here on deviantart, those savings will be calculated before checkout, making the need for refund unnecessary.
Example: $10 subtotal plus $2 shipping. Refund $2 plus 10%, makes the total refunded discount $3, and you've only paid $7 for your order!
Unfortunately refunding the discount total is the only way this can be done until I can find some way to create discounts and coupons with a new cart system.
Remember, if you have ANY questions, or would prefer to calculate your total with me, just note me or send an email, I have absolutely NO problem with working with you side-by-side.

How do I get in on this?:
Fill out the following fields and note me, or send an email to blueanchorjewelry@yahoo.com

"First & Last Name:
Current Age:
Date of Birth: DD/MM
DeviantArt Name: (if applicable)
Yes, I understand and accept the terms applied to Blue Anchor's Birthday Discount."

Your information will NEVER leave my files, it is strictly confidential.

But what if my birthday was in January or February 2009?: You can still use this discount for your birthday, since it has already past and this has just started! It would not be fair to exclude these birthdates.

Conditions and Terms:
-You MUST send a note or email registering BEFORE you can apply this offer to an order.
-You MUST accept the terms involved. If you are unclear about anything, please ask!
-February birthdays must choose between their birthday discount or the gift-with-purchase offer. Since gift-with-purchase is only available for the month of February, it is not fair to customers with birthdates in other months. Please specify your choice at checkout.
-This offer cannot be combined with any current or future offers.
-Offer valid for 2009 birthdates ONLY.
-Offer not applicable to previous purchases.
 

Allo,

Free Gifts!
Just wanted to let everyone know that this month, while supplies last (I hate that phrase, but how else do I say it?) I will be adding a free gift to every order. These gifted items will be from my older collections, and they need homes! If you get something you dont like or would not wear, regift it! Find somebody who WOULD like it, or save it for someone's birthday.

Deals & Etsy
Also, I have pretty much given up on Etsy. I check it often, but I no longer spend much time promoting myself there. You can still order from my Etsy, or you can order directly from me here, and we can haggle over possible discounts =)
Bottom line, I really, REALLY want to get all of these older pieces and collections SOLD, so IF THERE IS SOMETHING YOU SEE FOR SALE, THAT YOU WANT TO PURCHASE... CONTACT ME! I will most likely give you a DEAL on it! I cannot give away everything, but I CAN give away some things with orders and you never know what youre going to get!

Your Security
If youre hesitant because you do not trust buying online, I always use PayPal for secure transactions, and with PayPal, you do NOT need an account. I repeat, you do NOT NEED AN ACCOUNT. You do need a credit or debit card, or a bank account where you can pay directly or send an e-check. If you are under 18 and cannot hold a PayPal account, these are some options you might consider. Or, pay a friend who CAN shop online, I have done that myself! Furthermore, the only information I have access to is your name and your mailing address. I will never, repeat, NEVER release this information UNDER ANY circumstances. I am a business and I have LAWS to obey.

Where to shop:
You can shop in several places, all securely via PayPal.
-You can shop in person, with me here in dA.
-On my website www.blueanchorjewelry.com
-On myspace http://www.myspace.com/blueanchorjewelry
-On Etsy http://www.BlueAnchor.etsy.com
