watcher_62 Posted September 26, 2022 #1 Share Posted September 26, 2022 So we just received a Mariner block for our 280 that happened last April. Still waiting on our Odyssey for our 210... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare QuilterGirl Posted September 27, 2022 #2 Share Posted September 27, 2022 We are on Serenade just now and are reaching our 140 milestone on this cruise. We had a note in our cabin that said that they are currently out of stock on these blocks, and included a coupon that we are to fill out and turn in on the ship, and the block will be sent to us when the stock is replenished. The question, of course, is who is "they" - the ship, or corporate? I'm guessing the latter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orwell-g Posted October 8, 2022 #6 Share Posted October 8, 2022 I was on the Odyssey in July when I reached the 140 milestone, filled out the form and received the block about 2 months later via UPS mail (I live in Europe, it was UPS'ed from a Florida adresse) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never once offered a block. Are they worth asking about on November cruise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starts at 170 pts, then each 70 pts after. Get the one for the ship earned on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they worth asking about on November cruise? I'm at the same points as you and I just recently got my first block. From what I can tell, I missed my first 2 due to changes in the points system that put me past the milestones. For the heck of it, I reached out to C&A to see if I could get the past blocks, but they never responded. I got my first block on Quantum this past May. They must have had a stock on board because it was delivered to my room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy_g88 Posted October 10, 2022 #16 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Went on Jewel this past summer and received our blocks this week. I have 3 spare Jewel blocks not sure if anyone would like to swap for a different one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George C Posted October 10, 2022 #17 Share Posted October 10, 2022 We once received one that we didn’t deserve, it was our first grand suite about ten years ago we were given a box which we didn’t open for a day or so , when we opened it it said congratulations on your 400 cruise, told our room attendant she said she would check but she thought we should keep it . We also have two legitimate blocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dewaldcruiser Posted October 10, 2022 #19 Share Posted October 10, 2022 I was on the Grandeur in late April and the form for the crystal black was left in my cabin. Decided that I didn't want to carry one home so asked to have it sent. The next day, one was left in my room. Wasn't worth complaining about, so I packed it up, took it home and put it on my mantle. Amazingly, a week or so ago, two Grandeur of the seas crystal blocks showed up on my front porch delivered by Fed Ex. Not sure what to do with three Grandeur of the Seas crystal blocks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to advanced search and check sold items for pricing. Biker, who just sold his Voyager block for $128 and is the benefactor of some folks losing touch with value reality. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neverbeenhere Posted October 10, 2022 #22 Share Posted October 10, 2022 I try to net out at 3 or 4 drinks for mine. $60 less $ 10 for shipping and $ 8 for fees leaves $ 42 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I ever get a block, you can have it, Biker. Edited October 11, 2022 by fredmdcruisers Error Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have received 2 of them by mail in the past and we are waiting for an Anthem one from last year. The LA’s onboard can help you with ones that you are missing.
