No members pack for me in time for the 73MM massively disappointed and wasn't even offered a discount (and didn't know to ask) in the shop when spending £170 on merchandise. The whole membership experience of what is supposed to be an exclusive club hasn't started very well for me I'm afraid and already doubting I'll maintain the membership next year.

We asked yesterday and were told that all packs have been given to the distributors so it is now up to them when they are delivered. I would have liked to have had this years badge for the weekend but no problem really. The only thing it could have been useful for was getting the discount into Bonhams but we manged to get around that anyway wink

I bought most of my stuff over the phone last week and the discount was automatic - bought over the counter yesterday and saturday and discount given without needing to ask for it.

How did you get round bonhams. I was very annoyed as I would have purchased a catalogue to view the auction if I had the £10 off with a 2015 badge.

Really? The wording on the voucher that comes in the member's pack says it is for one purchase per year and has to be given up when used. I always save mine to use when the Revival DVD is released.

Person I went with was bidding so he just ushered me through while they weren't concentrating too hard - they seemed to be taking a harder line shortly before the sale started.

I'll check with my wife later - I bought over the phone and she bought while we were there. Maybe family membership gets you two vouchers? - genuinely don't know as we have only changed changed the membership this year.

I just told the chap on the door I wanted to view the Ulster as I was considering bidding at the future sale. smile

My members pack arrived this morning, so all is perfect now on the Goodwood front!

We had a great weekend, and we're looking forward to the FoS.

Mine arrived yesterday morning.

It really is pathetic that a membership pack for 2015 arrives 3 months into the year. Particularly when it contains offers redeemable at an event that has already past.

Mine arrived yesterday although it's currently sat at the sorting office awaiting me to collect it frown

Whilst I agree with you on the delay issue there are a couple of mitigating factors; 1. The book takes a while to print and get back for inclusion; 2. The offer for the Members Meeting is only an issue in year one as you can call the office after that and buy over the phone once you have paid your renewal.

Nice blue colour this year but the windscreen badge wasn't as sticky as previous years spin
