As this will be IJC’s first Christmas as a Forum Sponsor, and I’m in a giving mood, I wanted to don my Santa costume and fake beard and unveil something pretty special from the sack that’s exclusive to the CBF community…
How would you feel about getting bargain price cricket equipment for the rest of your life, without having to spend hours trawling the web, or risking eBay, or waiting around for flash sales on particular products that expire the minute you get your credit card out of your wallet? Now is your chance…
Two lucky CBF members will be given LIFETIME IJC DISCOUNT CODES that are unique to them. One (2nd prize) is for 20% off, with the top prize being for 25% off. These codes can be used on whatever you like whenever you like – no expiry dates or minimum spends – and the discounts will be applied off list price, not RRP, so bargains are guaranteed! :)
It doesn’t matter if you’ve been naughty or nice this year – everyone will have an equal opportunity to get their hands on one of these codes. To be in with a chance of winning one, you simply need to place a £40+ order with us between now and the end of December, and quote your CBF username in the ‘Customer Notes’ section at checkout, so your order can be verified and logged. Pre-orders (for items that are listed on our website but that we don’t currently have in stock) are also valid providing they are £40 or more and placed before the end of December. The two winners will then be drawn at random from all the relevant orders.
NB. This offer is strictly for CBF users only, hence our need to see your username in the Customer Notes.
As we can only give away two of these Lifetime Discount Codes, it’s unlikely that all entrants will win, but don’t worry – there are no losers here. This is because everyone who enters will at least get a (single use) £15 Gift Voucher, which they can redeem at any time!
The Discount Codes and Gift Vouchers will be given away on New Year’s Day, so for anyone who’s planning to make a New Year’s Resolution on spending less money on cricket equipment, you may want to rethink this resolution if you win! ;-)
I hope you enjoy the offer, and best of luck to everyone!
Oh, and Merry Christmas, ho, ho, ho and all that too! :)
Cheers,
Paul

WOWZER!
-
this is without question a wonderful time to be a member of this forum.
Paul you are a legend.
now £40... that can't be too hard to spend...
-
Oh gosh, that's incredible! 25% lifetime, as in forever, or as in whenever you want? Lucky person, whoever gets either of those 2 prizes! 8) Any of the new Masuri lids? I have a friend wanting an elite! :)

Not yet, Chad, but I will put them up on the website for a January pre-order, much like I did with the Newbery kit yesterday...
Yes, whenever you want - provided we are still in business and you are still in need of cricket equipment! :) Almost like a sponsorship really!
-
Wow, thank you Paul. And also damn you! Just spent some money out on new softs! Will have to find some way to spend some more!

Haha but no need to rush, Liam - still three weeks to go, maybe some other desire might crop up by then?!

Gosh darn forum sponsors...grumble grumble...being nice to us...grumble grumble...
Now, What do I need...

It pretty much is a sponsorship! You should make it so they must endorse the IJC labels, and report to you their performances, and cancel it if they don't perform! :D
Ah right, that's a shame that they don't come before Xmas! I'll just have to look for something for myself in that case! 8)

Oh yes, stickers all the way here! :D
You could still pre-order one of the Masuris and use it as your qualifying order, Chad. We won't have them physically in stock until the new year, but as I said in the original post, pre-orders will qualify too - I just need to get them up on the website first. I'll let you know when this has been done - hopefully by close of play today...

Can I use what I have outstanding on my Dynadrive?

Yes, Charlie, especially as you said you'd be looking at a big bag as well! ;)

Lovely offer Paul :)
-
Great comp Paul, might enter myself! ;)

Paul is your website not offering international shipping anymore? I don't see the options for outside of Europe!!

We now do bespoke shipping costs outside of Europe. As you know, we lost quite a lot of money on this earlier in the year (when it was based on order value), so we needed to put it right. We still ship everywhere, but anyone based outside of Europe will need to contact us for a shipping quote first.

Great comp Paul, might enter myself! ;)
Well, as you well know, Jake - 25% off list is almost as good as trade price... ;)
-
Yes, Charlie, especially as you said you'd be looking at a big bag as well! ;)
Brilliant, I'll see you Friday! Managed to convince the Mrs on the bag idea :D, but not on the Spitfire! :(

When will the GN legend keeping gloves be up on the website?

Tushar, if I thought she would fall for that I'd give it a try!
-

They are on our February order, so January most likely. If you have your heart set on them though, and want to enter by pre-ordering these over and above anything else, I might add them to the website this month. Just don't expect them to be with you until February though - it's up to you...
-
Paul do you have any Medium RH Strippers in stock?
Ideally P1 but can be swayed to go for P2

Hi Matt, yes, but only in P2. How can I sway you to go for that over the P1?! Is the fact that I use P2s enough?! ;)
-
I'm struggling to find 40 pounds worth of stuff I actually need haha.

I've PMed you regarding a certain mitten Paul :)

We can always mark up the mittens prices, Tom! ;) Cheers, mate. Just about to PM you back...

Just uploaded some of the new Masuri helmets to the website, which are now available for pre-order - more to come over the next couple of days...
-
A shout out to Mr Tushar Sehgal - you are the first entrant to the prize draw. Best of luck! Who's going to be next?

noone...Tush wins both prizes!

Paul, just to clarify does this have to be one online or can it be done in store?

Online is better because it's smoother and easier to verify the CBF membership, but in your case, Charlie, I know you're coming to the store on Friday anyway to spend above the required amount, so that'll count, mate, don't worry!
-
OK, it's official: we have ourselves a contest now, thanks to Vincent (smokem). So, Tushar, unfortunately you won't be getting both codes now, but you may still get one!
-
P.S. Don't worry, I'm not going to post after every single entry is made, but just wanted to make everyone aware that it's not just talk now - it's officially on - and two CBF members will definitely be in possession of these discount codes come New Year's Day!

For those of you still mulling over what to spend your £40 on, these (newly uploaded) videos might provide some inspiration:

And last but by no means least - love it!!!
Looks a bit of a beast that one Paul. ;)
-
It's great that the Hammer bats have arrived! Some of the are UK made and others are NZ made if I remember correctly. :)

Good to hear that you're a fan, Chad! :) The only one that's made in NZ nowadays is the Vapen. All the others are made in England. Lots more to come on Hammer on our YouTube. Lots, lots more... ;)

Haha glad to hear, I tend to go on YT to watch your reviews when I'm procrastinating, and I really like the decals of the Platinum. 8) Might have to put a self-imposed ban on buying kit next year though! I can tell that isn't going to work out too well already! :(

haha self-imposed ban on buying kit, and yet you're still active on this forum, Chad? Something doesn't add up!! :D
-
Just a bump on this in case anyone is browsing the internet this evening looking for new kit...
Any orders received this evening will definitely be delivered in time for Christmas, so the £40 could be spent on presents for friends/family too! :)
-
Just wanted to update everyone on this competition: we have five entrants so far, so according to my maths (which hopefully is correct for once!) everyone who's entered has a 40% chance of winning one of the lifetime discount codes... Of course, this percentage will only decrease with every new entry, but I'd still say that, of all the competitions out there, you'll have more chance of winning this one than any other! :)
All you need to do is place a £40 order between now and New Year's Eve, and mention your username in the Customer Notes...
-
I'll be ordering tomorrow!
-
Please can I have a Spitfire for £40?
-
I'd like Aero Thigh/Inner protection system but you don't have any right handed ones. Any chance I can place a pre-order? Just tried online but it won't let me.
:(

Sorry, mate, what size are you? Stocks are low of those right now, admittedly, but we do have them in medium RH. Either way, we can sort out a pre-order as we'll be getting more Aero stock in January anyway...
-
I was looking at the L RH Aero P1 Stripper. Happy enough to pre-order.

Just in case anyone's got any Christmas money today (that they don't yet know how to spend), here's a bump on this one.
Up to 10 entrants now. Remember, though, even those who don't win will still get a £15 IJC gift voucher just for entering... :)
-
Just wanted to remind everyone about this: four more days to get your order in... Also, as it's my birthday, there will be a special treat for all orders placed today... ;)
-
Happy birthday Paul. :D
-
Wish you a very Happy Birthday Paul :)

Happy b'day Tall Paul. Enjoy!

Happy birthday Paul :D

Wow - what a competition! Is it also open to awful lurkers who never post? How about if they promise to post more in the new year?
Might have to dust down the credit card anyway just in case...
Jan
p.s. declaration of interests: I play for the same team as Paul though I don't think he knows I read the forum. Paul no worries if this excludes me from the draw.
p.p.s. if anyone is interested in hearing embarrassing stories about Paul's antics on match day give me a shout....

Well I'm not sure I want to jeopardise my chances in the comp so you might have to wait until the new year... But bring along a mask and ask to see him dance and you won't be disappointed.

Big Phat Jan?
Surely not the first female poster on the forum? Didn't I chat you up in The Frog & Bollock the other night?

For asking me to open the innings in our last game of the season, and thereby helping my batting average to halve in the process, I'm not sure if you should be eligible, Jan! Luckily for you though, I'm a man of my word, and rules are rules. If the administrators have been brave enough to approve your membership, and you spend £40 by midnight today, you are eligible...
-
Same goes for all other CBF members, incidentally - including those who are more legit than Big Phat Jan! ;) You're all eligible, but you need to get a £40+ order in by midnight GMT, when the competition will close.
The draw will be made tomorrow. Thanks again to everyone who's entered and best of luck! :)

Congrats guys! Can we all order our kit through you now? ;-)

Congrats guys, cracking deal you've got yourself. Good comp Paul.
-
Well done guys
Well looks like that hammer will not be coming home with me then Paul :(
-
congrats to the winners :(
-
Wow, amazing news to kick off the year. I am totally rapt!!! New Years resolution of buying less gear has gone out the window! Thanks very much Paul, it's a very generous prize which I'm sure I'll make good use of!
-
Congratulations guys, very generous offer from Paul - I just couldn't justify any more kit at the moment.
-
I'd already picked out all my 2013 kit :(.. Shame.
-
Well done guys
Well looks like that hammer will not be coming home with me then Paul :(
Well, you'll still get £15 off the price at least, Chris!
-

-
Wow thats a great way to start the new year :)...Thanks Paul
-
:o Congratz Tushar and Vincent! 8) Man, the things I would have done with those discounts... >.>
-
Can we delete this entire post completely...every time i see an update it reminds me of my hard luck :(
-
Ok just kidding guys :)
-

No you're not. ;) In all seriousness though, if I won it, it would not help with my aim of the year being to only purchase 5 bats max, unless I end up selling on a lot of gear. 8) I would have bought a Hel 156 or Vapen if I did!
-
Disclaimer: I am not going to buy anything.
Question: Paul, do i get a special code or do you just apply 20% discount when i buy something? do i let you know everytime i make a purchase?
Confession: Disclaimer is a lie :-[

Hi Tushar, drop me a PM with your order, mate. Don't want any of the others getting jealous... :D Also, on a serious note, as it's Canada shipping, you can't just order online anyway as it'll be a bespoke shipping cost.
