In case you don’t know, this is limited to September 2019.
Which actually wasn’t how it was introduced to us here.
I have been thinking about the sa67, but given the mkii thing, I am not clear when the current delivery date is?
I am still learning to live with my retirement budget, so while It’s a good discount, it’s still over a grand Cdn by the time it gets here so maybe bad timing for me.

So is this for any Stam product during the month of September? This is killer! ..... I somehow missed the announcement. I think I'll order the V72 or V76 clone if it applies.

Wait, is this a new promotion for the month of September, or are you saying that, for those of us who were given a 50% discount on a future piece of gear because of the long wait times, this discount will expire after September? I sure hope it's the former and not the latter.... In either case, where did you read this? Edit: I see it on Facebook. So the discount being referenced on FB is referring to items other than the items (1073eq and 76ADG) for which I was offered a 50% discount. So I guess this doesn't apply to me and there is no expiration date on my 50% discount. I need Stam to verify this though, and it goes without saying that I will be super pissed if this DOES apply to me.

No, this is not a new promo for everyone. This was Stam's offer to say sorry for the delays we experienced receiving certain gear in the past, like the adg. here is the link, scroll down the page : you can check our Discount Policy here stamaudio.com/resources/faq/

There was never any expiration date given on those discounts when they were offered before and people, myself included, have made purchase (current and future) decisions based on that fact. It was also never offered on your "next" purchase but, rather, just on "a" purchase. Maybe I don't want to use the discount on my next purchase. Maybe I want to wait to use it on something later that hasn't come out yet or at least on something that has been announced but won't go into production for a while. Hey Josh, how about you get me my pair of ADGs before you start reneging on the discount that was offered to get me to keep my deposit with you instead of pulling the plug on the whole thing? That would be swell.

I’m thinking Josh will quietly honour the commitment he made to us here, which was 50% off a purchase of our choice at a time of our choosing, but the formal policy on the website may be more limited: least I hope so.
I think he just had a chance to take a brief holiday with his son’ who live with their Mom in Spain: hopefully we hear from him soon?

I "had" been planning on likely using my discount to pick up the new Tim Campbell 67, but I was waiting to see how everything shook out with sound clips and what people generally thought of them. I definitely was not expecting to have to make a decision where time factor was a part of the equation.

No probs. I was contacted by a new manager etc. , and she gave me the link.
I hope Josh will have a RGO sub policy, as it would be difficult for me to buy the sa67 mkii now.

It would be difficult for me to buy right now too. Also, what is it with companies thinking that a post on Facebook qualifies as sufficient notice? I'm a paying customer and should be notified by email of any announcement which affects me. I received no notification about any of this and only found out because of this thread.

I hear you, Quint, that is why I posted as it was news (bad) to me .

That’s all she wrote :
“DISCOUNT POLICY Stam Audio discounts apply to the very next purchase of one single product in its stock price (even if the model is not in stock). You can choose any of our gears, but only one unit. You have to pre-order the gear (write in the paypal payment description: “X% off as a compensation for X product delay/Joshua’s deference”) and once we start shipping that model, we invoice you the pending balance with your discount applied + shipping costs. It’s important for you to know that the cost for upgrading your gear has no discount.
Please, bear in mind that it’s just one discount voucher per client regardless the number of massive emails you receive because all of them are part of the same compensation campaign (if you have 2 delayed orders and receive 2 discount emails, you only have 1 discount voucher; it’s the same discount voucher). In case you have 2 or more discounts for different reasons, you can only pick one of them.
The customers who are eligible for the discount are the ones who placed an (pre)order for one or more of the following gears (delayed): SA-670 (StamChild), SA-4000MKII, SA-76ADG/F, SA-47 and SA-67. Pre-orders had to be placed before May 1st, 2019. The discount is valid until September 30th, 2019.”

One trick is apparently a preorder by Paypal with a note, satisfies the condition, so you don’t have to pay in full by September.

I have to skin in the game but it's been fascinating to watch these things go down. And not just with Stam but with so many other manufacturers in the past.
When Josh first announced that 50% off discount I thought 2 things: 1) That's awesome that he's going out of his way to make things right with his customers 2) 50% off is a horrible business move that makes me trust his biz model even less. There's no way he's not loosing money on that. A 20% off discount would have been more feasible.
Putting a time limit on it, I understand...Without it he couldn't accurately forecast his finances. But of course it would've been great to email everyone about it.

It is only one discount per customer, who suffered delays, not times total pieces of gear.
He would be losing some significant part of his profit but 50% must cover costs and shipping is extra, plus it’s off current price so it’s not the pre order price.
I believe the sa67 has climbed several hundred’s of dollars since launch, so, it’s still a deal, but you are paying based on current prices.
So, again, they are at least covering their changing costs as our discount is based on the current price at time of order ?

Wiz, that is exactly what I asked today, are these offered discounts cumulative ? If I am having trouble buying one piece of gear, there is little likelihood of me ordering 3 pieces of gear for now an average 25-30% reduction?
Don’t have an answer yet: keep you all posted.

Me too, told her I had already reviewed stuff!
She was going to check, but you have already ordered the stamchilde: right?
So, I asked if I can get 60% discount one one item.
