Challenge winner prizes . . . how long?

Discussion started by Platonik

I'm only asking here because CGTrader support has not responded to me in many days. I was the winner of the Home 3d printing challenge (portfolio section) and have received part of the prize (the TAZ 3d printer) but not the rest. I am only trying to find out the time-line of when to expect the filaments, T-shirt and all that cool stuff. It seems like there should be more communication going on and I am just wondering if anyone can attest to how long the process actually takes.

I love the TAZ, but its been slow to get going with having to buy myself filaments after waiting a month thinking everything was on its way. Is there some bigger issue behind this? I was first notified of winning on July 17th. So it's been a while now and I'm starting to feel awkward  . . .


Thanks,

Noah Hornberger

Ask on the Live Chat in the bottom left corner ;) Right now it says chat with us, but later it'll say leave a message :| I'd recommend waiting until it says "Chat with us", you'll have a better chance of getting your info ;)

Thanks Alpha 3d!! Good idea. I did get an email this morning and found out they are working on it with some delays from the sponsors. I just wanted to make sure it was still in progress . . .

Thanks!

Still no answer from anyone at CGTrader on where the prizes are. It seems like the 'sponsors' are not as realistic as they have assumed. Something is amiss. It looks like I may have to contact the sponsors individually.

What is most confusing is why the 'CGTrader T-shirt' has not arrived. What is the hold up on a T-Shirt? Or an explanation on how I choose a free model of my choice to 3d print. I'm tired of this getting pushed off.

I would warn everyone entering a contest at this point to not expect to actually get most of the prizes until 3-4 months after you have won.

That's a shame... Have you done the Live Chat?

Hey guys, sorry for such a delay. We can't get any news from some sponsors, so have to find other ways to send you the desirable prizes, we are still working on it, thanks for your understanding. Will get back to you soon.
