What these guys have done is not in dispute, the whole Mcrae Gathering is a fantastic acheivement and the amount of money raised is brilliant. However, ordering 555 from the printers rather than more is short sighted in my opinion. I can see the point about them being limited and special, and the number 555 for all it signifies (see my plate <<<) but I'd have thought they'd have done a limited run of 1000 at least, like the P1 say.

dont think it has anything to do with throwing money away ...
have anyone worked out how much will be raised 555 x 40 quid

but its for a good charity..

so didnt mind paying it

as for producing more than 555 think would be a mistake, maybe a better way would of been to contact everyone who brought the rally sticker first before putting it to the public, but then i wouldnt have one as i couldnt make the gathering due to family issues

The announcement was made first to all those that had registered

It has only been subsequently posted on various forums by people not the organisers

Anyone who was/is signed up to the Gathering mailing list would have been notified last night by email (assuming the email address we hold is valid). If you bought a sticker/shirts and weren't signed up to the mailing list then you would not have been notified. Our messages are opt-in mailings, not unsolicited spam. I hope that clarifies matters.

As for the limited run, I only deal with the technical side of things so can't comment, but I understand posters will also be made available at a lesser cost and with unlimited quantities. Grant can fill you in on that.

i was registered correctly as well,got the sticker,t shirt,downloaded the pdf,had all the correspondance back,waited and waited for the photo and heard nothing till i seen it on here.Its all good now though,i managed to get a mate to get me one,cos for some reason it wouldnt let me buy one,so i had a wee hissi fit .Still think they should have made more though.555 means less than half the people who attended can buy one.
