Feels relevant to ask at this point if the 20% off discount will apply when they are no doubt late on submissions.
I'm sure they will, but the clock doesn't start until they log in the packages. This creates a perverse incentive for them to drag their feet accepting shipments when there's a log jam.
Case in point, I sent in 2 packages for the sale: Friday August 11 and Monday August 14.
The first package was logged in and 82 Elite cards have already been processed. The Select cards show a due date of September 6. The 16-week cards show a due date of December 15.
The second package (sent the next business day) hasn't been logged in yet. USPS shows delivered, and COMC acknowledges it was delivered, but they haven't logged it in and it won't be tardy until 16 weeks after they do log it in.
I'm not 100% certain what the deal with Fresh Pulls is, but I imagine that it's considered timely if it was mailed before the deadline, regardless of when COMC logs it in to the system.
