Oh and I had another question. I have read that you can get a buyout product shipped at the same time as a free assignment so that you don't have to pay shipping. Is this true and if so how do I do this?

I'm not sure what you mean by factory sponsored assignments so here is a picture.



If you choose "Free Assignment" and then "Eden Fantasys sponsored" - you can one every 30 days as long as your prior assignments are done.

It is my understanding (and I'm trying to remember this for sure) that you can have one "at a time" of the manufacturer-sponsored assignments as long as your other free assignments are done. So for instance, you have your free assignments for Eden plus any buyouts and they're still outstanding - then you can't request a manufacturer sponsored assignment. You must have all prior free ones done. That is what I think I remember but it has been a bit since I tried for one of those.

As far as buyouts go - shop on the site and on the product page use "grab it" near the top right of the page to put stuff in your assignment cart.

When you go to your review program page (under "account" on the top left side of the page) - you will see "assignment cart". When you ask for an assignment it will ask you if you're wanting a free assignment or a buyout assignment.

Put your free assignment that you've been given in your cart - then do any buyouts you want and add them to the order.

You should have free shipping for your order.

Thanks I don't know why I wrote factory sponsored assignment, I meant manufacturer.

Your question is a good one for JR. Maybe drop him a note - you can find some of his threads here on the forum and click on his icon to send him a message.

I usually end up bothering JR since a lot of the time the manufacturer sponsored assignments don't work in my product searches. You can add an order or buyout assignments to the order through the normal purchasing routes.

I usually try to add extra items on the shipping of the free assignment, like if there's something small I want and don't feel like paying the shipping charges to get just that one. js250, I'm curious because whenever I do the manufactured sponsored search it's always really skimpy, is there another way to find these things? Thanks!

I know we have a couple plugs for MF sponsored reviews now. Honestly, today's been so busy, I haven't had a chance to look at them yet.

Just the thread I was looking for...answered some of my questions, but I have a couple of more. How many buyout assignments can one have out at a time and in addition to the free assignment? Also where does one find the manufacturer sponsored assignments? Thanks!
