• Was I eligible to win?

  If you placed an order over $10.00 USD between November 27th at 9 AM EST and December 12th at 9 AM EST, then yes... you would have been good to go. Each eligible order generated one electronic Order ID. If you spent more than $10.00 USD during our Black Friday promotional period, check your email - the Order Receipt we sent included your unique Order ID, which was also used as your Ballot ID.

• Was the prize available to anyone worldwide?

  Of course.

• Was there a No Purchase Necessary option?

  Yep. To enter without making a purchase, you had to have completed and sent us a paper ballot, available here.

• How did you draw a winner?

  Great question. Let's break it down.

  Each eligible order generated a unique Ballot ID. Additionally, each No Purchase Necessary mail-in ballot that arrives was assigned its own unique Ballot ID. Each Ballot ID represented a distinct record in our database table. From this pool of unique Ballot IDs, one random entry was picked using a randomly generated seed based on the NumPy project. This random selection was the resulting winner.

• Did the winner have to pay any additional shipping costs, duties, or taxes?

  Of course not. Everything was fully paid for by dbrand.

• Did the winner have to do anything once the prize was received?

  The winner is free to tweet out a photo or post one on Instagram, tagging @dbrand, to verify that they've received their prize.

• How did you contact the winner?

  The winner was contacted at the email address used during checkout. This email contained further details on how to collect their prize.
