Crystal Blocks

[MichaelCMTX]

It appears block awarding seems to vary ship-to-ship based on availability.  We're supposed to qualify for one "at last" on Adventure in a couple weeks.  

 

Any word on if that's truly possible, or if we're waiting on the Big Brown Truck in a few months?

I just received a spare Vision block.  I would like to exchange it for an Ovation, Anthem or Liberty. Anyone interested in an exchange?

If you are ever in dallas area I'd exchange a liberty. I have 2 liberty. Not worth the postage to me otherwise.

I don't quite understand that. You would get the block you wanted for whatever you pay in postage. It was less than $10 when we exchanged by mail with another cruiser. It is the easiest way to do it.

Are the blocks per household or individual?  For example, do a husband and wife (or significant other) each get the blocks when they hit their milestones?

Ok well since that's all I have at this pt and wouldnt have a collection more than likely, at this pt I dont care. Just thought if someone was in dallas I'd run it out to them. If not fine. Still enjoying mine. Had a hard enough time getting them that I'm not in a hurry to trade them off. 

 

It was just a thought when I saw the poster lived in the midwest he might drive to Galveston for a cruise. I'm good keeping mine too. I've only had them about a month. I like them together as a matched set of bookends too. My email is in my signature if the poster was driving thru.

 Thanks, but no current plans to travel to Dallas.

I have a duplicate Explorer block. Is anyone willing to trade while on ship?  I have cruises scheduled on Mariner, Symphony, and Harmony coming up in the next several months. 

[Cigar King]

You might want to post this in your roll call(s).

The LA on the Navigator advised that many ahip blocks are still on backorder.  The Odyssey blocks and Wonder blocks that were to be mailed out in April are still on backorder.  

[little britain]

No blocks on Voyager. As it was her first sailing back after 2 years I wonder what happened to all the old stock?!

We just received our first EX block.   Was shocked to get the call that we were #2 cruiser....so funny!  But only 10 Pinnies on board. 😉   Nice pic with the block, and certificate.

I also need an explorer.  I could trade with a Serande or Grandeur.

How would they know if you are not sailing together?

If I hit my milestone I collect mine....if wife hits her milestone she collects hers....

They know. If they didn't, I'd have about 10 more blocks by now😉

About to get my block #2 on Oasis. First was on Anthem in November. 🙂

[crzndeb]

I should get one on the Ovation this week. I talked to concierge, and he said they were getting them together.

[cruisegirl1]

Reached a block threshold in September on Mariner.  They claimed they were out and were to send me a block, but never have.  I've made two call and have given up.    We are scheduled to sail Mariner later this month.  I wonder if I can get it then?  Wonder what I need to show them to prove I was  due a block?

After three months we finally got our Pinnacle package with the Stratum...etc.  

 

Same thing...UPS notification and then two boxes delivered.   Great packaging, but they never secured the pins...all banged up...but no big deal.   The second box...was someone else's package!   

 

Called CS to have them pick up and resend to rightful owners...after an hour on hold, they told me to throw it away, and will resend new to the other new Pinnies.  What a waste!  At least I did try.  

 

Indeed that new company is awful.  

I turn Pinnacle on June 24, so I guess I should expect the stratum around Oct/Nov?
