C.) Portion of the difference gets applied to one (1) entry of the winner's choosing for the next contest (enter a friend)", the rest goes into the pool.
D.) A portion of the difference may be presented as a gift to a charity of winner's choice in the winner's name.

If a greater value item is selected, winner is solely responsible for ALL additional costs above the original Jem price.
NOTE: Please DO NOT contact Rich beforehand with "If I win, can I get..." questions.

* Winner is responsible for any tax, customs, import tariff or any other local fees necessary to accept receipt of the guitar not including shipment.
* Jemsite reserves the right to refuse/refund/disqualify any suspended, banned or problematic member for any reason whatsoever
* Any registrants or winners who are NOT members or eligible will be disqualified and refunded.

* Prior contest grand-prize winners are NOT eligible. (Sorry Andy & Paul!)

Prize(s)
* Guitar is NOT returnable for cash or credit.
* Guitar has full warranty as if you'd purchased it brand new. Damage that occurs as a result of shipping will be covered under the carriers insurance, not Ibanez Rules.
* Consolation prizes may be awarded or rescinded and are subject to the same terms as the grand prize. Prizes will be announced in the private forum.
* By sending payment via Pay Pal you agree to terms and conditions and winner declared by Jemsite.com. In the case of any dispute the final decision will be made by Jemsite.com.
* Winner will be chosen by the prearranged SELECTION METHOD according to Jemsite.com. This method will be the same as prior contests.

* Grand prize winners are ineligible for future prizes for 6 months from end of competition.
* Any questions may directed to the private forum or to winajem@optonline.net

"Sounds like a scam and/or the winner will be prearranged" You're obviously not familiar with Jemsite (since 1997) and its upstanding and honest administration. We will gladly put you in touch with two other forum members who are enjoying the Jems they've won in previous contests.

BTW, there are two $50 runner up prizes, but the numbering system is a little different this time, so i have to figure out how to dispense.

Since I know y'all are going to ask anyway...each entrant gets 40 consecutive numbers.

I just figured out how to dispense... the consollation prizes will go to +/-40 from the winner (the top and bottom roll around to the other side).

And there ya have it.

Believe me I considered cashing out some of my stock to enter, but even that is trading at about $6 to $7 a share lower than it usually does...all and all just not a good month. :(

Hey,
Just found out about this -- Sounds fun, but I'm not sure I get it. Do you mean that each entrant is evaluated based on ALL of their JemSite posts from now until... when?. Is this the only thread in which posts qualify? Any particular topics (guitars, the Middle East, John Denver's haircut...)? I'm confused...

(Oh, I think I get it now... I'm a dummy... but you knew that already...)

Good Times My Brothers....

I would love to enter

I've never done or heard of anything like this before.
In fact I've never won anything before in my life.
It's all Greek to me.

2 weeks ago I attended with 3 friends
a guitar clinic with Jeniffer batten.
All 3 friends won prizes, 2 shirts and an FX pedal.
Once again I won nothing and was the odd duckling so to speak.
LOL

Hmmmmm

Best of luck to everyone who entered

Cheers

Squeegy (a.k.a Steve)
