Christmas Card from SP

[drezz01]

Did anyone else get a Christmas card in the mail from smokingpipes.com? What a nice gesture!
I am frequently blown away by the customer service we receive from many of the vendors dedicated to this hobby.
I've purposely not included a photo of the card in case some of you have yet to receive it - I don't want to spoil the surprise!

Received mine yesterday, very nice of them, more than I got from my employer :roll:

Got mine a few weeks ago. I wonder if they're all the same artwork. I really like mine, gonna display it in my pipe cabinet. ::

I'll take a pic of mine over lunch and post the link to the image (instead of showing the image in the thread to avoid spoilers).

more than I got from my employer :roll:

If it makes you feel better I technically got fired for xmas -- then immediately re-hired by the company that bought us.

I got mine last week. It is a lot nicer than the e-cards that most of the companies I represent sent.

The card is a really nice gesture. That Sykes is a marketing machine.

I'll have to check with the wife. I don't remember seeing it.
Very nice customer service.

Very nice of them...but where's the coupon code?

Mine had a guy holding Night Cap. A nice gesture that probably cost a small fortune too! As a side note, the wife asked "how much did you spend this time!"

I received it a couple of days ago. It was appreciated and I was caught off guard.

 

[rhoadsie]

I received one too, I think I also received one last year as well?

 

[perdurabo]

I got one. My wife was impressed. Thanks SP.

 

[fordm60]

I also received one. Impressed my wife and I. They have earned my business already but found it to be a nice touch. Thank you SP.com!

I get them every year. My favorite was from a few years ago that had a pipe smoking reindeer.

I got mine a few days ago. I like the design, it's sitting proudly on my mantle. Good on Smoking pipes for taking the time and spending the money to do something nice for their customers.
On a side note/rant. I'm to the point now that Christmas E-cards just piss me off. If you can't be bothered to send something real, just do me favor and don't bother at all.
Merry Christmas :puffpipe:

My kids were amazed I got a card with a pipe on it. I was impressed myself.

 

[peteguy]

Didn't get one. I cant recall if I bought anything this year from them or not. Bah Humbug!!

That struck me too, you don't really see pipes in contemporary print very often so it's a nice bit of artwork to have around the house! Considering the members of this forum are likely a small percentage of their customer base they must have sent out a ton of them! All the way up here to Canada even. Good on them

My wife was surprised...the kids have their own places.
