I did the search, and I know what I want, I'm just not quite ready to pull the trigger on this.

Of course through the Pixtus link.

I'm going to an event in a couple of weeks, and I know that would be a great help.

I order stuff from B&H pretty regularly ... I'll have to start using the link here. Does it work for stuff that's already in your cart, or would I need to delete it and add everything again? I'll be dropping close to $3k there in a couple weeks...

good question. that im not sure of...

i think if its already in your cart and you click our BH link when you're ready to buy that we'd still get the credit for it.

just so long as you're buying within like 12 hours of clicking our link etc.

thanks for your support!

Just as a side note, even if you mark that it is a gift (check the box) they will still send it in the original packaging (if they don't have a box big enough to send it in, I guess) and not wrap it in plain or fancy papers. Yeah, ruined the Christmas surprise I had for the Wife. Oh well. Lesson learned I suppose.

Hey Able, I wonder if Roger (Lens Rental.com) would join this as a sponser? Be nice to have a rental company on board. Maybe a discount or something like this Prem membership thingy.
Just wondering

The site's going great as Pixtus, guys. I'm glad ya'll are around and I was a little put off at first when it expanded, thinking everything would be completely different (thinking of Garth in W.W. "we fear change") but nothing's really changed!

I really appreciate all the crotchety old dusty britches that help those of us with the "I have a cool camera so I'm a photographer" complex. My hairbow's off to you! So now I get to concentrate on the fun things like photographing light. (There needs to be a :squee: face for right here.)

Thanks a ton for your guys' continued support!

Here's an example of how the commissions from your purchases through our Affiliate Links are utilized:

We just sent off our 85th package of Pixtus Photography Cheat Sheets! Wow.. I have about 20 more to send out but we've depleted our stock again and have to reorder today.

This is the breakdown on the costs incorporated with the 85 packages shipped out thus far.

Pixtus Photography Cheat Sheet
--------------------------------
$100 = Shipping Supplies
$763 = 6,000 Cheat Sheets
$465 = USPS Priority Mail Costs
--------------------------------
$1,328 Total Cost


Thanks to you guys and your usage of our Affiliate Links the amount of $1,328 was fully paid for!

I really want to say how much I appreciate you guys purchasing your items with our Affiliate Links because without the commissions that those yield this sort of site marketing and sharing would not be possible. These Cheat Sheets are shipped out to photography schools, workshop organizers and photo clubs. This great teaching tool helps beginner photographer understand the basic concepts of their camera while also exposing them to Pixtus.com! Its a win-win!

Thanks
Killjoy and groovyone like this.

I just had a B&H order come in for $5,000 worth a gear from a member here on Pixtus... They now have a FREE 5 Year Premium Membership simply for using our affiliate links to purchase their gear...

That's a $125 Value all for FREE!!

Thanks a ton for your continued support... I currently have 5,000 Pixtus Photography Cheat Sheets on order which should be arriving on Friday and this kind of support really helps offset some of that cost.

I just purchased an item at B&H and wanted to make sure Pixtus received credit.
How is this verified?

it usually takes a couple of days for it to clear... PM they item you bought and I can verify it went through once it shows in our reports.

thanks a ton!
