Karma #7 Wax Melting Pot!
« on: November 11, 2016, 05:21:16 pm »
What is KARMA?

It is a random FREE give away to benefit those who contribute to forum community.  It is also a way for members to give back to the forum community.
 
This Karma's offering is for a Wax Melting Pot

Back in August I ordered a seamless aluminum melting pot/pitcher, it was back ordered and just arrived yesterday.  When I opened the box there were two melting pots.  I called Dadant to see what was up and found out the problem was on their end.  When asked how to go about shipping it back their reply was to go ahead and keep it as the return shipping would cost more than the product.  I thought the extra pot might be a good Karma giveaway.
it holds 2 quarts.  i decided to put it up on the forum for a Karma giveaway:



How Karma giveaway works:

    To be eligible you must have made 20 posts before NOVEMBER 11, 2016.
    To enter, you must reply to the KARMA give-away post.
    Only one entry per person,  if you reply more than once, only the first reply will count.
    On or after DECEMBER 2, 2016 , at a time of my choosing, I will use random.org to pick a winner.  It will go by "reply #" as defined by the forum.
    I will contact the winner by Private Message and the winner has 24 hours to PM me back with their address,  otherwise another person will be chosen.
    Once the winner has responded back to me, I will announce the winner, along with a screen capture from random.org, in the KARMA give-away post.
    Must be US or Canadian resident.


Please use this thread for Karma entry only.

Some ground rules for future KARMAs if anyone is compelled to give back to the forum community.

    Let's try to not have more than one KARMA going at a time, so try to wait until previous KARMA is complete.
    Giver of KARMA covers shipping - lets not get into exchanging funds and the hassles and issues that can come along with that.
    Item does not need to be beekeeping related, but that is always a plus.
    Item does not need to be new, but should be in good shape and usable.  So dig out all those things you purchased and tried and now sits collecting dust.
    Feel free to contact an administrator or moderator if you have questions or need help with a KARMA.

LET THE KARMA BEGIN!!!

Share that which you have an abundance of.  In doing so both the giver and receiver are enriched.

Great timing, tedh!  It's a good time to think about candles and such.
I'll be No. 2, but don't give it to me if I win.  I won in a previous giveaway.  If I win, give it to No. 3 or who ever you choose!  :D

Were there two replies, I would give myself about a 10 percent chance to win, but count me in anyway.

I think I have enough replies to qualify, plus if I win I can save you the shipping as I am in the Hawkeye state.

So, I guess put me in also.
