A Token of Our Esteem!

Ad announcing bonus token programFor many years, we have been trying to figure out how to reward our best and most loyal repeat customers. We finally figured out a way: tokens! Tokens of our esteem!

Well, you may say, big deal! What good is a little brass disk going to do me, even if it does look suspiciously like the Transit Gloria Mundi logo? That and $3.50 will get me a cup of latte at Starbucks.

But wait! That little brass disk and nine more just like it will get you a free TGM DVD ($19.95 retail price). 15 tokens will get you a free $29.95 DVD. 20 tokens will get you a free $39.95 DVD. And so on. See below for a list of all our DVD prices in tokens, as well as the number of tokens awarded with each DVD.

Tokens will now come with every new DVD you order from TGM - you'll get one token for a $19.95 DVD, two for a $29.95 DVD, and three for a $39.95 DVD. (Those of you with a mathematical bent will notice that you get a bigger effective "discount" for the more expensive DVDs. This is, of course, intentional.)

It all works like frequent flyer miles. You can buy a DVD with money, or you can buy a DVD with tokens, but not a mixture of the two. So you'll need to save up tokens from several purchases, but once you have enough, the DVD is absolutely free (not even a shipping and handling charge) and you can purchase any DVD in our catalog with no restrictions.

If you normally purchase TGM DVDs through a museum gift shop or other dealer, there are a couple of things you should know. Although tokens will be packaged with DVDs we sell through dealers, there are obviously a lot of VHS copies out there on dealers' shelves that don't yet have tokens. There's nothing we can do about this - eventually the tokenless VHSs will be sold and dealer DVDs will have tokens just like the ones bought direct.

The other thing you should know is that tokens can only be redeemed directly through TGM, not through dealers. We do not allow dealers to buy DVDs with tokens under any circumstances, so they would have no way to use tokens that they redeem for a customer. The detailed terms of this offer can be found below.

Holiday Specials

Effective with the introduction of our token promotion described above, we will be discontinuing all temporary discounts in our cash prices for this and future holiday seasons. In future we may offer DVDs at special discounted token prices for the holidays.

TGM Token Promotion
Terms of Offer

Transit Gloria Mundi rewards its repeat customers by distributing tokens with each DVD purchased. These tokens may be collected and redeemed for Transit Gloria Mundi DVDs. DVDs may be purchased for cash or tokens, but not a mixture of the two. The purchase prices of our titles in tokens, as well as the number of tokens awarded with each title, are listed above. Any TGM title may be purchased with tokens. DVDs may only be purchased with tokens directly from Transit Gloria Mundi; none of our dealers is authorized to accept tokens for the purchase of DVDs. The price in tokens for each DVD includes shipping and handling. DVDs purchased with tokens may only be ordered one DVD at a time. The full number of tokens required to purchase a DVD must be redeemed to purchase that DVD; the tokens that will be awarded with that DVD may not be counted toward its purchase price in tokens. The customer is responsible for the safe shipment of tokens to TGM to purchase a DVD; we do not recommend sending them loose in an envelope, since they may stack up in a corner and burst the envelope as it passes through the postal service's automatic sorting equipment. We suggest that they be attached with tape to a card or cards. There is no expiration date for this promotion, although TGM reserves the right to withdraw it at any time without prior notice. Under no circumstances will TGM redeem tokens for cash. We reserve the right to change the prices of DVDs in tokens either up or down, permanently or for temporary promotions, as well as the number of tokens awarded with each purchase. Effective immediately, it is our intention to eliminate temporary promotional discounts in the cash prices of our DVDs, such as holiday specials, replacing these promotions with a combination of reduced token prices or extra tokens with purchases for time-limited promotional periods.
