- I send screenshots of my screen while ordering or packing the prizes through DM
- I send screenshots of my screen while ordering or packing the prizes through DM
- I ask winners to stay online, so I’m 100% sure their address is correct
- No correct address = no shipping!
- I will immediately send proof of the receipt to the winner in DM
- After that, I will add the receipt with the winner’s @ to my proof thread
- No correct address = no shipping!
- I will immediately send proof of the receipt to the winner in DM
- After that, I will add the receipt with the winner’s @ to my proof thread
- I will ask the winner to quote my proof thread with a ‘thank you’ message, so people know it was a mutual agreement and nothing was forced
this is MY standard ‘procedure’, someone else might do it differently
