Based off of past experience, Gift cards come later and are able to be used for future sales, not for the current running sale.
Randy wanted everyone to be able to use them in the aftersale, so once we sorted out changing codes and banners, they were sent out. Gift card winners got their prize within 30 minutes of the end of the sale.

Sorry about that! Randy made an announcement in this thread right after the sale was over. I believe he told the winners to check their email. Looks like you missed that announcement :(

@A Reef Creation @CodyBot

So i know this live sale is over but when will the next one be? or could some possibly message me to see about getting a Saterday delivery date so i can buy some stuff in the aftersale. Im deployed and the wife wont be home during the day unless its on a Sat.

Our next livesale will be in March. We usually spend the next few weeks after the sale getting everyone their corals and then turn our focus on making frags for the next event. We have the LEAR frag swap in Cleveland at the end of February we are attending and then a mid March Livesale here.

We only ship on Tuesdays and Wednesdays because those are the safest times to ship overnight with FedEx. Mondays carry an extra load from the weekend and cause more delays and then shipping on Thursdays and Fridays removes any buffer for delays. In 2021 we shipped 747 boxes out to customers. About 50 of those boxes were delayed at least one day. Then about 15 of those 50 were delayed for more than one day. Of the 35 or so that had an extra day of transit, we had very few reports of dead corals. Even some of the 2 day delays had the corals survive. But the few that were longer than 2 days had heavy losses.
The reason we don't ship on Thursdays is that if there is a delay most of the time the package gets delivered Monday with heavy losses. In 2021 we offered a few customers that had to have a Friday or Saturday delivery the option to waive all live guarantee's in the event of a delay and I believe 3 customers still had us ship since it was the only way they could receive.

We guarantee live arrival on all our packages and will provide replacements for losses. Many of our customers can attest to this. We want to get your animals to you as safely as possible. We pack Acropora in larger bags of water to help them handle a layover. We do everything we can to stack the odds in our favor for success. But if anyone absolutely needs a Saturday delivery, we can do it for you, we just have to waive the livestock guarantee.(only if it's delayed)
