Charity Christmas Cards NAS

Paull

I don't know about anyone else, but personally I find it borderline deceit that you go to buy charity christmas cards online and you cannot even find out anywhere on the page or entire site any details about how much percentage wise actually goes to the charity, even here in the NAS shop, come to think about it what percentage of any profit from any product sold by NAS goes to the charity ?

My logic is that not seeing the percentage means it is being hidden, which means it is being hidden for a reason, the only reason can be that they don't want you to see it, and the only reason they don't want you to see it is because it's so low that it will put you off buying and the only reason it is so low is because the majority of the money is being syphoned off elsewhere - such as into other companies - no doubt with shareholders who are also involved with those charities.

  • That's my point Crystal, I was about to buy these cards and expected transparency regarding how much of the price goes directly to the charity,- it could be 90%, it could be 10p per pack, its a huge difference so people should rightly expect to see this amount clearly on the page when they are buying them.

    Not seeing this amount/percentage means it must be hidden - therefore as silly as it sounds ...anyone who buys them is being deceived. I can only deduce that hiding this amount means it must be miniscule because if it was high then it would be publicised more as it would undoubtedly increase sales.

    Personally I think to produce a christmas card is a matter of 2 or 3 pence each at most, so NAS selling a pack of ten for £3.95 should mean a few quid at least coming in.
