Hi dezl_dr,
On average, it takes approx. 3-4 weeks for membership cards to arrive via standard mail from the USPS. Note that the cards arrive in a plain white envelope that says “membership cards enclosed.” We’re looking into the delay in your membership cards as it has been past the 4 week time frame. We will get this resolved for you.
In the meantime, know that you can print a temporary membership card online. And, Good Sam parks can look you up in the system to confirm that your membership is active. I will PM you your membership # just in case you didn’t receive the email with that information.
Sincerely,
Good Sam Club Team
3-4 weeks is shameful! The equipment and systems to make and track them on the spot is easily attainable. Come on guys! Join the 21st century
My understanding is that they don't do it inhouse. They go through a printer for it. I imagine the cost of over 100 of those machines (for each store) along with the training, maintenance and upkeep outweighs what a printer (who already has the machine to do it) charges. The issue is not so much the machine, but how they mail them out.
I would disagree, these type of cardmakers with magnetic encoder can be purchased for less than you think. Using it can as simple as inputting the information into a database and hitting print.
