I placed an order earlier today and the mat was included at no charge.
I didn’t get the mat, bought a rex45 about a week ago.
Same here although I find I'm really enjoying my impulse purchase of the Rhino. Oddly enough I don't currently own a PM2 but what the heck.I feel like I bought the mat for $85, and got a knife for free.
The kicker was, they advertised the GAW before I bought the knife. Not too big a deal though.Finally, actual proof that "good things come to those who wait".![]()
I called hq. Apparently, I was supposed to check some box during the purchase in order to sign up for the free mat. However, I was in such a hurry to try to grab the sprint run, that I just didn’t see it. I called up at their customer service, Ryan, I believe, helped me out, had one or a few in stock and shipping one out to me free of charge. That rocks
Makes me feel better about the $15 in taxes I paid too.
I got mine last week. I ordered another kitchen knife for my lady, a couple extra t-shirts, and added one of the cheap Baliyos to get me to the $80 mark. The mat's cool but it's not really what I expected. It's basically a big mouse pad.
Mine broke fairly quick, was fun before that.How do you like the bali-yo? Does it flip smoothly and is the grip awkward when writing? I’ve been wanting one for a while, but never hear any feedback from users.
