Aj Collins Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 I got a letter a month ago saying I won forth prize. It said I should receive my games shortly. Anyone receive their prizes yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GPW Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 Haven't recieved a thing. Marden-Kane sure is taking their time in getting these prizes distributed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plaguebeast Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 be kinda ironic if the amount of time we wait to get our prizes is more then the length of the actual contest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperC142 Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 2nd place- still no prize (California, U.S.). But after having found this discussion, I'm happy to know I'm not the only one! (I was starting to think the prize may have been lost in the main). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eoyount Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Anyone heard anything lately? I sent erica@mardenkane.com an email last Wednesday and resent it again today because she hasn't replied. Tomorrow will be 9 weeks since the date on the letter for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightz Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 i've given up all hope on receiving a reply to my e-mail to erica :crazy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plaguebeast Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 I emailed her a couple of weeks ago and again late last week, called her yesterday, left a voice mail. No response to any......I wonder if there is anyway we can get ANY kind of feedback from Marden-Kane, this is getting silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eoyount Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Erica responded to my email finally, 6-8 weeks more, she said. That's ridiculous. I still haven't gotten a reply and I've sent her 3 emails now. I think I'm going to file a report with the BBB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plaguebeast Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 That's ridiculous. I still haven't gotten a reply and I've sent her 3 emails now. I think I'm going to file a report with the BBB. Good news, got this from Erica today, Hi xxxx, Unfortunately the fulfillment process becomes a little more complicated and lengthy when you have a large quantity of prizes to fulfill and the need to fulfill both domestically and internationally. Regardless, this does not excuse the right to the prize you are owed in a timely fashion, which is why of course we offer our apologies for the delay. That being said, we've followed up with those who are fulfilling the prize to you and they have confirmed that US Second Prize winners will be getting their prizes within the next 4 weeks. Sincerely, Erica Valdellon Marden-Kane Inc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eoyount Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 I got a similar email yesterday: Hi xxxx,We've followed up on shipping for you and it seems that they should begin shipping within 2 weeks. Your prize will ship out either by DHL or UPS Ground. Delivery can take up to 2 weeks after the day that it ships. I've put in a request for the tracking #, so that you may follow delivery. I will let you know if this shipping timeline changes further. Thank you again for your patience. Sincerely, Erica Valdellon Marden-Kane Inc.

EcPercy Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 I got my 4th prize a week or so ago. 4th was 3 games for windows games. I got: Microsoft Flight Simulator X Deluxe Edition Zoo Tycoon 2 Zookeeper Collection Age of Empires 3 Not too bad for working some puzzles and having a bit of fun in the process!

robjkay Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 (edited) That's ridiculous. I still haven't gotten a reply and I've sent her 3 emails now.

eoyount Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 (edited) <snip> Do you have a problem? Prize or not, if a company promises you something in 6 to 8 weeks and they just ignore you until 9 weeks later, that's not good business.

Nightz Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 finally got a response too... Hi ...,We've followed up on shipping for you and it seems that your prize should begin shipping within 1-2 weeks, either by DHL or UPS Ground. Delivery can take up to 2 weeks after the day that it ships. I've put in a request for the tracking #, so that you may follow delivery. I will let you know if this shipping timeline changes further. Thank you again for your patience. Sincerely, Erica Valdellon Marden-Kane Inc. i think it's a generic response that she sends out. i'm hoping i get a 360 elite after all that waiting lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
