Multitude of Guys Shop fee lowered?

I just noticed the Shop fee for the burger joint with the basketball team-worth of guys is now listed at $6 for the late July shops. I wonder if that's a typo, or if the MSC decided they were being too generous to us.

Hi Liz.

I just checked central Ohio and Central Virginia and they are $6.00 for shops July 25-28. I also checked Orlando and they are $6.00 beginning July 25. Are you sure you extended the date search beyond one month?
In my area, they had the Arches shops for the remainder of this month posted at $12. Yesterday, they all dropped to $11 and today they're now at $10. My guess is that they're having systems issues, as I'm still seeing shops 100 miles from me when I only search a 20 mile radius.

They routinely screw with the price of the Arches shops. Up, down, weekend special, internet special, etc. My concern is the better burger shops going out to the end of July. It looks like they are all $6.00 beginning July 25th.
Okay, Now that I've looked at it some more, it appears that it's only the lunch shops that were reduced to $6.00. The dinner shops are still $7.00 on the 25th and later. That makes me think it's a typo. I wouldn't make any sense to reduce the lunch but not the dinner. The reporting requirements are the same for both.

I did my zip code in the Orlando area (34786) and went 200 miles and through the end of July HOWEVER the latest shop date I saw was July 21? I think.

Hey Liz,

I think the default on the search timeframe is one month. You have to change the date range to end July 31 to pick up the last week in July.

I just put in your zip code and it came up with four lunch shops with the $6.00 fee. I have to think it's a typo since the dinner shops are still $7.00.

The ones in my area who dropped down to $6 are the ones who get snapped up right away. I think the MSC is trying to see if shoppers will still bite. Out of 10 locations in my 20 miles radius, the 2 that dropped in price are always gone within a day of posting.
In my area (Central NJ) I do not see them past mid July, and the ones that I do see are still at $7.00. maybe they are testing the lower price in certain markets.
I just saw $7 and yet, two days ago, they emailed me an offer of $19 which I took.

Very strange all this.
If they are testing the $6 price it will work although some of us will not take them at that price cause the next change will be $5 then $4 and eventually they will change it to nothing.
There are always people who will take them no matter what happens.

They make a little more profit and we take a little more loss.
I saw the dropped price. It said, "New changed fee." You can imagine my disappointment when I saw the fee was lowered. When the said that I was expecting a higher price.
The ones in my area (Jacksonville & Gainesville, FL) still say $7 for both lunch & dinner through the end of the month. The Arches shops are at $10.

I just checked Jacksonville. The lunch shops are $6.00 for July 25-28. You have to extend the date range to July 31 to see the last week of July.
$6.00 here in S. Georgia for lunch also, after 7/24.
oh well you know what they say "one born every minute"......sadly
Out of principle, I will not be accepting $6.00 shops for this client.
They're still at $7 around here (Tampa Bay). I'm doing the closest one to me tomorrow for $10 that was offered in an email. It's so far west, I guess everyone else thinks it's in the Gulf.
Ok, now I'm confused... I usually just change the search date to through next year, so I'll see anything that they may be posting early. I don't see anything at all for July. I extended the search to 50 miles of my zipcode (32068) & even did a 50 mile search around Jacksonville. The last date I see for any shop is JUNE 30. I just finished my first shop for them (coincidentally at the same restaurant we're talking about). As far as I know it wasn't rejected or anything. Anyone know why I might not be able to see anything past June??


--Had to edit this because I didn't think before I posted...

I see 5 shops when I do a city search for Jacksonville for 50 miles. I see 10 shops when I do a zipcode search for 32068 for 50 miles. And they all fall in June...

Oops, didn't think about that when I posted it. I thought it'd be ok if I just removed the names... However, yours is quoting me, so when I delete mine you'll need to fix yours too...

I'm not sure why you can't see the July shops. When I put in your zip, I see a bunch of shops in July including a couple of $6.00 lunch shops.

I'm also seeing $6.00 shops in Tampay Bay.


I don't think it's a typo anymore.
I don't see any July shops. Just one left for June...and I extended the date range thru the end of August. Weird.
And for those who missed it Mickeys is moving.

Really? Do we know how much lower the fees will be with the new MSC? I won't do them with the current MSC until they get bonused to at least $12.50.
