mcgovern Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 Got this e-mail from ebaybanned, I don't understand it, maybe someone else can? Hi all, EB airsoft offer a crazy gift to the world airsofter, a brand new PTW M4 can be got by everyone at FREE ( or nearly free ) This is a USD1 listing include 1pc systema PTW M4, Paul will suddenly add this crazy gift between HK Time 9:00pm 15 th OCT to 9:00pm 16 th OCT without any notice ! I must show the full name of this lucky man and first 6 words of his email address, if you do not want to let other know such info, please do not pay (USD1) for it. This is Free Shipping also. P.S please tell all your friends ASAP, i do not think any other seller will offer such crazy gift.... regards I think he means its a lucky draw or something, with the $1 being the price of the ticket.

tome Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 I think he means that there will be 1 PTW to be sold at 1USD. First come first served. Link to post Share on other sites

Gigueand Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 I'm rolling out my t-shirt printing press for this one: "I survived the Ebaybanned PTW crisis of 2008!" Buy one, get one free!!!! Soon to be followed by "I survived the Ebaybanned "closing" of [insert month here] 2009." and don't forget the ever popular "Ebaybanned: more Inglish than you can shake a stick at!" Can anyone spell gimmick (obviously I can). Link to post Share on other sites

Spartan452 Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 Their server will probably crash that day, I know I will be there, pulling all nighter for that thing. Link to post Share on other sites
1st_shooter Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 But why would you tell everyone that didnt already no! Link to post Share on other sites
FallenGuard Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 if you do not want to let other know such info, please do not pay (USD1) for it. This one will me keep far away, no matter the Price. I wouldn't be surprised if all those People who signed up will have a "slight" increase in Spam in their Mailbox soon.

evansy Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 This one will me keep far away, no matter the Price. I wouldn't be surprised if all those People who signed up will have a "slight" increase in Spam in their Mailbox soon. Not to mention the "slight" increase in EBB's bank balance with everyone paying that $1 for a chance to get the ptw. Link to post Share on other sites
1st_shooter Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 Not to mention the "slight" increase in EBB's bank balance with everyone paying that $1 for a chance to get the ptw. Considering he is gonna put it up at any time within the 24hr period then i dont think its gonna be a lucky dip otherwise he would of said that, 1st come 1st served - simple.

badsailor Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 "Ebaybanned: more INGRISH than you can shake a stick at!" Fixed. As fro EB's $1 giveaway: I'll avoid, even if you win it, you'll have to wait for a shipping invoice and then deal with Jesse for 2 weeks. Link to post Share on other sites

bonesaw53 Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 its a drawing From the wording its not a drawing. Between the 15th and 16th at anytime he will add the PTW to his online store and the first to hit BUY they will receve it. Atleast thats how I interpreted it . Link to post Share on other sites

Angry Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 Yeah it's not a draw. The first one to get their payment processed is going to get it. Link to post Share on other sites
davedawg123 Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 I predict server crash. But thanks for the heads up. Link to post Share on other sites
chas Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 Wouldnt it be ironic that he actually sustained losses because of a server crash that made ordering imposible? Link to post Share on other sites
L4byr1nth Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 I've ordered from EBB.com regularly with hardly any problems at all. In fact, the only anxieties I have had were to do with Jesse being lazy with the tracking number. The way to get around this is to e-mail Paul or Selina directly, stating what you've ordered, and asking how long it might take to get it. Never fails. As for this offer, a Systema PTW Challenge Kit for $1.00?! Count me in! It takes 5 minutes to make a new Hotmail account - in case you're worried about spambots. It'd take me about 5 months to save for the kit! Ben. Link to post Share on other sites
The General Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 I made a small order from them a little while ago and have no issues there. However the ingrish is terrible and I have no idea what on earth Paul is saying or trying to say most of the time. Then we have these litte stunts to get people looking at the website and sigh...

Crimson Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 They should hire someone to sort out their english, as a part time job etc would be worth it for them. I saw this too and you will have to be on the site 247 to find it and you wont know what section he will add it too and you need to buy it before anyone else does lol chances are very low Link to post Share on other sites
Cosmitz Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 He will actually add it as the item he opened up.. so all you need to do is send your 1$ before evreyone else's 1$. Plus 24 hours is a lot to stay online and ready and refreshing the same bloody page. Link to post Share on other sites
Rob15 Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 I'll place bets on the person getting it being some springer kiddie who just happened to visit ebaybanned's site by chance Link to post Share on other sites
Hendrix2247 Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 I'll place bets on the person getting it being some springer kiddie who just happened to visit ebaybanned's site by chance F***, you're probably right... Link to post Share on other sites
