What are the free gifts?

Membership card, GS-2 hand strap, tshirt, and choose either red ring or red neck strap. I thought these two could be free gifts when purchase the camera but now I have to join then choose either of it.

thought both lens ring AND the strap would be given... Instead of OR...

Well, the GS-2 hand strap alone is worth more than the cost already, plus other freebies and benefit you'd get by joining the club, I think it's a great deal.

I submitted the form this afternoon too. Waiting to collect the free gifts, the T-shirt and the membership card!:D
 

I've just also submitted the form and payment. Waiting for the confirmation and the free gifts too. ;)
 

very cool the GR club, just signed up as well :)
 

Just submitted the form to join GR Club, hopefully it is approved after I transfer lifetime membership fees,
looking forward to free gifts !

Wow, they ask for $28 and they offer only two antiquated payment methods? :O They should just raise the camera price by $10 and offer the membership for free.

Joining the club or not is up to us, they can't force us by adding the cost to the camera :). And as far as I know GR club is a self sustained organisation, they are not trying to make profit out of the member fee. As a matter of fact, they might lose some money if there are not sufficient people joining the club. But if they do make some profit, I hope it's enough for them to keep the club running.

To run a club isn't easy, lets give them some credit by doing all theses jobs for us GR/GRD users, instead of criticising them.

Well, I sure hope it has better quality than the Pentaxians T-shirts we mass ordered before, which cost us around $25 already.
 

its microfiber-cotton mix, very light, breathable and very comfortable, you wont even feel the seams or stitching. tried and tested on several human subjects....

black, with a GR camera outline on the back and GR sign in the front.

Wow! Thankful it is not the current " I Love GR" picture on GR Club Facebook page, won't be cool if it is that .

Ricoh doesn't run the club themselves? OK... I expected it to be done by Ricoh directly.

GR Club is not APD.. So don't think they can influence camera price all that.

Let's be a bit less negative. I think it's a great effort and we should give credit when due. :)
