PartyPoker's players club points

"This section of the site is currently under maintenance, and will be working again very shortly."

Any chance that this means that they might finally be adding something worthwhile to redeem these for? I'd love it if they let you get poker books like PokerStars does. I have over 125,000 of these things and right now they're just wasting away.

Hopefully so.

I'd love it if they gave me cash-money for them, but to each his own.

Honestly, I'd love anything that doesn't say Party Poker on them. Anything beyond that is just sweet sweet chocolate frosting.

Cash money would be cherries.

A reasonable way to buy into the PPM or WSOP using Party Points would be an amusing vulgar image such as a wang or boobs on your cake that makes you laugh, but doesn't taste as good as that sweet sweet cherry.

God I want a cherry right now.

Slight hijack... I ordered some crap from their store a few weeks ago. How long should I expect to wait until I can be disappointed by the quality of the products that PartyPoker has sent me?

I live in UK. I ordered a cap and beanie ( Hey, it's free and I'm sure not using the points to play a 500k Q that pays 1st place only against 1000 donks ) and it was delivered by UPS or some big firm that you have to sign for in 5 weeks.

I noticed they had the fold up poker tables for 15,000 points before it went down. I was going to get one too. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

they are supposed to be adding electronics and other stuff eventually (read that in a thread somewhere from an e-mail someone got from party....might have been in affiliates/rb forum).

However, it is worth noting that I have seen this message in th eparty store before...and sometimes it just means they are deleting an item that they have run out of....or adding something REALLY freaking stupid...or just that they are having more of their usual 'difficulties'.

However, I too look forward to the day that they add ANYTHING to the store that I would be interested in.

My VIP host alluded to the same thing (as well as points for cash) when I spoke to him a couple weeks ago.

yes. i was going to mention this.

there was vip-club talk about a potential points-for-cash promotion on the horizon.

Not sure if it will also apply to those not in the VIP-club...nor do we officially know if/when this will take place.

but there's no huge need to spend your points on party-crap just because 'nothing else is worthwhile anyway'.

I'm saving my points and am hoping either for an I-Pod or something like that....or just cash.
No matter what the rate is...I'd probably prefer the cash over the current assortment of party-apparel (I'm just not interested in any of the online-poker site apparel).
