Amy will send out an email to you telling you what you scored (or not). The time seems to vary but you should hear something within a week to ten days plus or minus. I expect that the quantities are pretty limited this Ganza (unlike the Miliganza) so emails may go out a little faster, we'll see.

When I spoke with Amy she estimated that she sorted through THOUSANDS of emails for the Miliganza. I would go blind (or insane) doing her job. The BCS office crew (like all the other Busse family co's) works their fannies off for us.

Kraz pretty much sums it up.

It usually takes about 7-10 days.

If you call in to pay after getting your email, be prepared!

You might talk to AMY. Amy is a hoot. She is full of energy and enthuesiasm and probably loads of caffeine.

I just went for the ASH-1 myself.

Yeah, it is amazing how fast Amy actually gets through email. I did email technical support for dsl/hosting/misc tech stuff and a busy day could be 130 or 150 emails sent out.

Hope you score your first choice Cam!

Oh yeah, me too. That thing is sexy. Although, with the price, I don't think I'll be too upset if I don't get it.

The ASH1 is truly a bargain at $367. I want one. It looks like such a useful blade shape/length.

And when the rest of the ASHs are offered later in the year I'll probably get a couple more <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

The Steel Heart is great. I had to try to score another one. I hope we all got lucky. It is just such a right feeling knife. If I can get another one, then one will be a user and I am really having a hard time not using mine. If it works half as good as it looks and feels, I am going to love it.


Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

I ended up scoring 4B = Badger Attack TAC .270 thick blade with hand shaped red G-10 handles and black spacers. I can't wait, it's going to be awesome.

Woohoo! I scored on the SE ASH-1 <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Got my email today and called Amy to pay. I thought about trying for other blades as well, except anything else would of had to be sold asap and I didn't want to try and scoop a bunch for profit.
