I know there is an existing thread about this somewhere, but I couldn't find it. Doh :(
Anyway, I recently bought "Under the Tuscan Sun" for my wife (hey, 100 points, why not) and the seller was kind enough to put some cool art on the envelope. You rock!

Thats cool for the user to take time like that for 100 point item. Heck for a 1,000 point item. If i could draw worth a crap i would do stuff like that.

I love how you ripped from the bottom to preserve the picture. 

Very cool!

I like how the USPS guy was kind enough to stamp next to the drawing and not over it.

Beautiful, pass it, and please people don't ruin it people.... Oh crap Coyote, this just gave me another idea, how about making a special looking envelope that you include shipping out with the game and if re-used the first 3 people will get 5 free trade tokens for posting a pic of claiming having it. Sort of a promo gone touring, lol.

Yeah, because they aren't giving away enough tokens with the student promo.

Hey, glad you enjoyed the art! It gives me something to do at work when things are slow. The girl at the post office always gives me a weird look when I send these but someone appreciating it makes it worth it!

BTW, I can't pass on the envelope because of the way I opened it (to avoid ripping the picture I had to go in through the bottom). So it only lives on in this picture.

And yeah, I think Goozex is already being more than generous with their various free-token promotions. I get it, they are trying to build up their user base, and it's probably good long-term business, but in the short term I'm barely spending any tokens nowadays with the free movie promotion. It's an insanely good deal. I made 1000 points by flipping a semi-rare PS1 game for $34 (Ogre Battle), which I can convert into nine or ten DVDs--no shipping fees (seller pays those) and no tokens (free until end of January). So $3.40 total for a 100 point DVD, or $10 for a 300 point Blu-ray. Good luck finding a deal that good anywhere but a garage sale (or ridiculous coupon stacking--I'm looking at you, Disney).
