Top O' The Season and Happy New Year all 'round!! :lust
I've just tried to take advantage of the SmugMug/Gary Fong offer and, again, I notice that it is of real use only to US-based subscribers! Sure, the cart offers me the noted discount. No problem. But by the time I include shipping to Canada, exchange rate, PayPal, brokerage fees, taxes and all, it makes absolutely no sense. In fact in this case not only does the promotion buy me the privilege of waiting several days for my purchase, but it also brings the total cost to almost twice what I'd pay at my local photo supplier -- at list price!
Here's what I'm wondering. To make such offers truly useful to ALL SmugMug members, is it not be possible to offer discount coupons we can simply print out and take to the local dealer to redeem?
It would be much appreciated.
