TO OUR AUDIENCE AROUND THE WORLD: We understand how frustrating it is that our 100k Giveaway is only open to North America-- we're just as frustrated that it has to be this way. We'd love nothing more than to open it up to ALL if you who support our channel and enjoy our videos. Please understand that despite our video content and advice being available worldwide, we are effectively a medium-sized, North American family-owned business, not a worldwide corporation. This comes with many limitations in terms of doing business (including giveaways) on a global scale. Legal issues, logistics, and cost are all significant obstacles we hope to one day overcome as we grow, allowing us to supply to Europe, Asia, and Australia. We sincerely apologize for having to limit the giveaway to North America, and hope you'll stick around to keep on tankin with us. Your support for our videos means more to us than you know, and if we could change the circumstances, we would. - Brian
Congrats to you guys on your well deserved milestone. I am pleased for you but a bit sad that your global subscribers can’t join in with the prizes. I’m a bit jealous tbh.
We're so sorry to make you feel that way. Please see our pinned comment for an explanation on why we had to limit the giveaway to North America. Hope you'll keep on tankin with us!
@@callelofgren172 Your support means more to us than you know. Please see the pinned comment for an explanation on why we had to limit the giveaway to North America. We would love for it to be worldwide and wish we had the capability to do that. Hope you'll keep supporting our videos, it really does mean a lot to us! - Brian
Yaaaay!!! Finally :D I wish I could win some of this stuff. I guess I have to move to Canada :D haha Good luck everyone ^^ P.S We should be thanking YOU guys for the awesome videos :) so THANK YOU
Thanks, we still love you too, and wish we could have included Holland (and beyond) in this giveaway! Please see the pinned comment for an explanation on why that wasn't possible.
Congrats guys! You do an amazing job! shame im in the UK so i can't join the giveaway. Hopefully you'll be able to a giveaway that includes us folks here in the UK at your next milestone!:)
Thanks so much for your support, it means a lot to us! We've pinned a comment explaining why we had to limit this to North America. We'd love nothing more than to include Europe, Asia and Australia in these milestone celebrations.
Check out the pinned comment for an explanation on why we had to limit it to North America. We wish we didn't have to, but hopefully you'll understand. Thank you for continuing to support our videos, it means a lot to us!
Just watched your latest vid regarding the one on one Skype chat where I found out that I am unable to enter the big 100k give away due to living in Germany. I feel totally disheartened, I've waited months for this plus I've managed to get countless friends to subscribe informing them of the great prizes they could win. A very sad day indeed :(
@@NaturalAquaria Really appreciate you taking the time to reply Thomas. I do understand the difficulties when it comes to holding a worldwide give away and I truly didn't mean for my words to sound so harsh. To be honest I already feel like I've won something from watching your videos, the information you share is priceless. Of course I have entered into the Skype contest, it would be a great pleasure to speak with the master himself.
Sorry to disappoint you. Please see our pinned comment for an explanation of why we had to limit this to North America. And as far as postage, trust us when we say postage on a 53gal aquarium from North America would be bananas in the worst way, and having it get to you in one piece would be a miracle.
We hope they don’t! Unfortunately we aren’t big enough yet as a company to offer international shipping, even for special giveaways. But we appreciate every single subscriber who watches our videos, and hope you’ll stick with us!
@@BigAlsVOD not big enough? seems like the size of your subs is heavily inflated by us non NA supporters, i would love to see just how small you were if it were only north Americans, i doubt you would have ever gotten to 100k without us looking at the rest of these comments. and you just say you're too small for us, shame on your company.
@@lesliebombardier8980 You're absolutely right, a lot of our subscriber base comes from outside North America. While we're amazed by the worldwide support our RUclips channel has, as a business we are categorized as small-to-medium. This comes with a lot of legal, logistical, and cost limitations that large companies and corporations do not have (allowing them to supply globally). Neither ourselves nor most of our vendors are able to ship items internationally for these reasons, which we wish was not the case. We truly do appreciate the support we get from ALL of our subs-- regardless of where they live-- and apologize for disappointing you. We hope you can understand the limitations we, as a business, have. - Brian
on your streams you always read out hello from here and hello from there and a whole bunch of that 100k subs are def not in the two countries you included in this giveaway, shame on you guys, unsubbed
Hey Leslie, we're pretty sad that you've decided to unsub but we do get why you're frustrated. While our channel is home to a big, worldwide community, there are many reasons why we cannot ship prizes internationally (the same reason why our online store does not ship internationally). Because of this, we had to restrict the entries to North America. It's not something we have a choice in, and hope you can understand. We'd love to keep on tankin with you regardless of prizes.
If you unsub because you can't get free stuff, you're not here for the right reason. Your countries and companies do giveaways and have online stores US and Canada residents can't enter. So be happy for someone else.

Should all the none Canadian and American subscribers just unfollow you then?
