Details from
1xRUN on their great new customer account system:
As we approach our 300th RUN and our Second Anniversary, all of us
here at
1xRUN would like to thank everyone for their continued support
over the past 2 years dozens of amazing RUNs!
Our site itself started out simply. A clean, efficient, easy and fun
way to buy artwork. However, over the past 6-9 months we’ve had tons of
ideas brewing as we continue to make updates to the checkout process,
reservation system and other minor tweaks you may not see when visiting
daily.
So, here we are on the eve of one of our biggest upgrades as we move
into the future of
1xRUN with our long anticipated Membership / User
Account System and the implementation of Social Sharing. One of the
biggest customer service inquiries we receive is to update and change
collectors shipping address. With your new 1xRUN membership you will be
able to change and update your shipping address, keep track of your
orders and much more. We also feel our new Social Sharing with account
credits for referrals will change the way many of you use the site and
make it ever so sweet to tell a friend about the art you love and get
credits towards future purchases.
With all that said we hope you will enjoy the new version of the
site. This Saturday we’ll put the site into maintenance mode for a few
hours and deploy the new code. Any questions, concerns or things that
aren’t acting right let us know and we will get on it as quickly as we
can. Once the new site is up we’ll send out an email with information
on setting up your 1xRUN Membership account with your email address or
facebook account. Simply sign up, choose a user name and see how many
credits you can rack up for free art!
In November of 2010, 1xRUN started as a once a week extension of our
psychical gallery 323East. Our goal was simple, every week we would
offer artwork from our favorite artists at a great price for 7 days.
Now 300 RUNs later, we have added original artwork, hand-painted
multiples, silkscreen prints and tons more that we would have never
dreamt up when we had just one RUN each week. As a team we have grown in
the past two years, we’ve quit our day jobs and 1xRUN has become the
main priority for our small but strong team. Our roster of artists has
grown exponentially and while we still work with many of the artists
from our first 10 RUNs, we are constantly bringing in new and exciting
artists for their first RUNs.
When we first started, our goal was to emulate the excitement and energy
of a traditional gallery opening, but with the accessibility of an
online release. We hope that everyone that has visited
1xRUN during a
release feels that same energy, we certainly do. We’ve long said that
you don’t need to travel to New York City, Los Angeles or San Francisco
to collect great artwork. Today’s finest artists are constantly evolving
and mind-blowing art is all around us. Here at
1xRUN you can open your
email daily, check out today’s release and help support the world’s best
artist right from home. Thank you for coming along for the ride and
here is to 300 more RUNs to come…
