2012 Calendars?

[gtcobra]

I was curious if Factory Five will come out with a 2012 calendar with the POM' in it?

Please reply to this if you are interested in Calendars!

I've added a poll to this thread. If you REALLY want to get a TheFactoryFiveForum.com calendar featuring this year's POMs, let us know. Estimated cost would be 20-25 bucks.

Who's in?

[gjarrett]

I would love to have a roadster calender, can the calenders be done per model?

[gtcobra]

Dave, I think we have met the threshold.......

[The Stig]

I'll take two.

[Bob Cowan]

I'll probably order 3-4.

[David Hodgkins]

Thanks for all the interest guys!

We are now in the process of putting the calendars together and getting them printed. Unfortunatly they won't be here in time for Christmas, but they will hopefully be available by the beginning of the year, or shorty thereafter, depending on the printer.

Pricing hasn't been determined, but they will be available through the Factory Five online store.

Continue to express your interest in this thread, it may influence the final count printed.

:)

Thanks Dave.

We've made a lot of progress on getting a calendar made. Today, we sent the files over to our printer to get a proof of the calendar and from there, we'll hopefully go to print. We're trying a different style of printing from our brochures, but from the same company so we know they do good work. We'll have more details on them after we get the sample, but for now, here's a sneak peek at the cover...

I am in for 4 since I will be December! :)

[Mad Dog]

We're getting the proof today and there's probably some minor tweaks that need to be made, but we're getting this done as quickly as we can. More info to come soon...

[SchuMann]

I'm in.

[68GT500MAN]

I will want 2.

Quick update - Met with the printer today to review the proof (which looks awesome!). We have a few image tweaks we'll be doing as well as some minor text edits. Should get a second proof soon at which point we should be ready to go to press. Once we get to that point, we'll get the order page up and running.

Just an FYI- We've sold over 110 of the GTM calendars in a little over a week, so I don't think 15 is going to be a problem. Spoke to someone that did the GTM calendars previously, and he said they sold over 125 of them, so, as someone else said, if you make it, they will buy it! :)

BTW, GTM calendar can be seen and purchased here:

Oh yes, one more thing...these GTM calendars were put together and printed by a high school class in the Sacramento area, and all proceeds go back to the class! :)

[David Hodgkins]

Crash, it's poor form to advertise your product in another vendor's (in this case thefactoryfiveforum.com) thread...

[crash]

Sorry if you take it that way. We have totally different products with totally different mediums, and if I thought for a moment that what I posted would take away from the sales of Roadster calendars, or non-model specific calendars, I certainly wouldn't have posted it. I see GTM guys here saying they are going to buy these calendars, and they have already bought the GTM calendars. There is a post asking about specific model themed calendars...maybe I'm wrong on this one, and if so, fine, have my post altered or removed, but I really don't see the conflict between the two calendars. Is there any plans by you or anyone else to do a GTM specific calendar? If not, I really don't see the conflict.

Also, I don't see it as advertising if I am not trying or going to make a profit on anything. This is charity work, not profit seeking work.

I am also putting a link to this thread in the GTM forum thread right now to let people know there are options. All I was trying to do is post in as many places as possible that had to do with the topic of calendars, and I am more than willing to post the "official forum" information, whatever that means, as I thought we were ALL FFR forum members, in other locations as well. IMHO it is about getting the word out, not stealing anything from anyone else. Trust me when I say that the FFR calendar team will not have to work late nights to have a superior product to the GTM calendar offered by PDG and www.myraceshop.com. Not that they suck or anything, but the students did put these together kind of last minute, and only two days were available for GTM owners to send in their pictures. For you to think that these GTM calendars are a threat to an official FFR calendar, while flattering, is simply not the case, as I see it.

I got one last year and would like to get another one this year...

[Mad Dog]

Great news everyone! 2012 Factory Five Forum Calendars are now for sale! We approved the final proof the other day and the printer said they are being bound right now. Head over to the Factory Five Parts Catalog (https://factoryfiveparts.com/product.php?productid=16685&cat=0&page=1) to place your advance order now. We should be receiving the calendars here at FFR shortly, so you should receive your calendar soon after that.

[Crawleyscobra]

Just ordered mine...

[stang_killer]

Any other shipping options besides the expense Fedex? I want one but not sure about paying 10.53 for fedex shipping. USPS would be fine with me.

[Snakely]

$10 for shipping is pretty salty, that makes for a $30 calendar. I'd pay $20, inc. shipping, for one. But i balked after see the shipping price. Sorry.

[Georgia Coupe]

Just ordered 5 of them. Makes the $12 for shipping much more reasonable when you purchase 5. :)

[Mad Dog]

The shipping cost has been updated. We're now going with a flat rate shipping of $5.50.

I paid $10.38 for shipping (Order #10615)... can I get $4.88 of in store credit?

[gjarrett]

Anyway to get sample pictures of each month?

[Joe]

I received my three. Hope you guys enjoy July! :)

The way it was advertised, I expected all POMS for the month.....pretty disappointing.
