This is a fantastic idea, but why isn't there a Tier 2 PC option on Groupees?

There was, but I guess they've "sold out" (there were 3000 available).
What is the ship in the bottom center, and how do I get it? I've already purchased the T2 Bundle, despite already having the Buran and the Qoj (it's a good cause), but I'd really like to get my mitts on that center ship, which I don't recognize.
It's the same ship as the bottom left from an aft angle. It's the: https://sto.gamepedia.com/Qoj_Command_Dreadnought_Cruiser

Forewarning, when I did mine from this charity-giveaway earlier today after inputting my codes I got an "OOPS!" page then almost freaked-out lol but logged-into my account checked the Promotions tab & my items were there awaiting to be claimed.
The whole process worked rather smoothly for myself.
I'll admit I had a dream of being Lobi-rich when I first saw that "3000 Keys" lol.
Ya know, as much time as I've spent lookin' at that ship's aft quarter, I should have recognized that. DERP!
Thanks!
I was logged in the game when I entered the codes and freaked out when it didn't work. But then I exited the game and restarted ... they were there in my promotions tab. Thank you to the people who posted the link, as my account did not have a gear icon like the instructions said!!!

Thank You so much!
If you can add more PC keys that would be great.
Well, you are absolutely free to give more since it's charity... they don't limit you to donate only 2 bucks.
You all should really get on Groupees about restocking the Tier 2 (PC) package. They haven't restocked for hours and it's obviously the only thing that's really selling. By not restocking they are potentially losing thousands of dollars for the charity. Seriously, the total has hardly moved since they ran out. Also, Per Groupees, only 90% will go to charity. Not 100%.

If you're PC, sorry I'm ignorant of console, check under the C-Store Promotions tab. The Tribble & the ships should be there, not actually in-game until you claim it. Hope that helps.
At this stage I wonder if Cryptic/Groupees are trying to pace the sales/donations, or just remember that it isn't up to Groupees to supply & resupply that is Cryptic. If the T2 bundle isn't resupplied I'd have to wonder about the intent to raise as much money for this charity as possible. It's all digital content after all. Also you're "Not 100%" isn't accurate, relook at the website that 100% claim is "net" then of course in smaller lower print it states the 90% going to charity.
Hopefully for you & many others that haven't been able to participate in this will get an opportunity.
It's all digital content so easy to replenish.
If Cryptic's intent is to help as much as possible with this charity why not replenish for more sales?
Perhaps Cryptic &/or Groupees are trying to pace it out since the end-date is Feb. 4th???
Right, because the whole point of a fundraiser is to pace it so you don't sell too much. Wouldn't wanna make TOO much money for your charity. That doesn't make sense at all.
So, you state my 100% statement wasn't accurate, then admit the site says in fine print "approximately 90%" will go to the charity. So where was I inaccurate? If you meant 100% will go to Groupees, then I stand, incredulously, corrected.
What to admit for myself? Do you comprehend what you quoted? "then of course in smaller lower print it states the 90% going to charity." I already stated that at the end of my post you quoted. You're "100%" is false since you neglected to include "net" which is on the Groupee website. You conveniently left that out which is pertinent & important context.
I found them there and claimed them but the ship is still showing Zen and modules to purchase. It's showing as "reclaim" or any way to acquire for "free"

Not really. 100% is 100%, 90% is not 100%. 90% is a really great percentage for a charity, some charities are much worse. Also, never claimed Groupees said otherwise, and Cryptic added the same information to their website after the fact, which negated my point.
