Is there a way we can pay with PayPal? And what happens with my range membership I just purchased a few days ago?

Keep the range membership. They don't extend. You caught it while it was still on the other system. You don't need to do anything for a year. We don't use paypal for subscriptions. The range membership is a one time thing. If you want to swap, i can offer you a refund on the range membership since it wasn't too long ago. I'll just zelle you then sign up for this one.

Payment went right through. Thanks for creating and maintaining this site.

Just upgraded for the $50.

Burns me a bit to hear you’re getting cancelled for hosting a 2A site. Hopefully my $50 helps a bit.

Thank you Joe, really appreciate you being a pioneer here.

 

[ikeo1]

Thank you to everyone who signed up! I’ll be in contact soon to get these stickers out.

This is now closed…

Well I was just too slow to get on this one. Oh well.

If you’re serious I opened it up for another 10 minutes

Paypal is anti gun.

Reopened for another hour

Am I understanding correctly that the membership I signed up for before, just a few months ago, which was supposed to be a lock for as long as I am a member, is no longer a lock?

On another note, there was a sticker thing a while back where I was supposed to choose two out of four, gave my address for shipping, and still haven’t received anything.

I’m sure you’re a stand up guy, as evidenced by your comportment on this site, but I have to say that adding those two things together has me scratching my head a bit this morning.

Yes. That’s the case. The membership was cancelled.

I was initially going to send out the stickers, but Stripe shut me down. So I ended up scrambling because I lost nearly all user and vendor memberships. I had to get new accounts created. Customize my own payment plugin for the site, and deal with some other BS that came up because of bad members. A lot of things happened at the same time, causing me to update a lot of things all at the same time.

Since I had to make a custom payment plugin, I needed to test it. There were some small issues which are largely worked out.

Now that this is working again, just found another bug and closed it down.

This is repopulating a portion of subscribers. If you go into your account you’ll see that it’s cancelled. All members that had a previous membership can upgrade at this price when the time comes. We didn’t last a year with stripe.



The stickers going out got postponed. We’ll be launching a new site soon and wanted to include a flyer for it. If you go to the supporter section you’ll see it.

I have to work out the logistics for sending all the stickers too. Everything takes time, and I’m slowly working through the queue.

Of course it’s a Susan

Am I understanding this correctly?

Previous members continue to enjoy the benefits of membership until their renewal date, then are able to reup at $50. No need to take action now.

Yes, this is a one time transition. It’s not your fault, so I’ll take the hit. We’ll also take this opportunity to close out the coffee cup badge. That tells me you bought it before hand and will be eligible for this price. The badge will transition the larger badges. We’re going to transition from the smaller icons to the larger ones moving forward.

That’s your wood chip so to speak that you can turn in for the discount. Everyone who had a subscription previous has that coffee cup.

Welcome to the 2a industry.
Credit card processing
Email marketing
Web hosting
To name a few.....
You have to make sure before you go into any b2b deal that they are 100% 2a friendly.

Dealing with anti gun insurance companies now trying to help a property owner find a policy that will allow me to open a gunstore. It was hard enough to find a spot the city would allow and an owner that would allow it.

We have the hosting and email system in house. Fortunately the hosting provider is 2A friendly and hosts a lot of Defense contracts and firearm related businesses.

The processing was the one out there. Now that we’re back in line I think it’s good.

Lessons along the way and in this frigging sector is a thing! So many land mines.

My suggestion is to just lead with "Are you gun (2a) friendly I dont even beat around the bush or waste my time anymore its what I lead with
