Crazy site sale you gotta see this

  • think it's the general tone of the posts that have made people unhappy, making them feel as if someone is trying to pull a fast one.

    Lets pretend that the shop is richards or his friends, one way to advertise it would have been to just come in and post a link to the starwars figures for £1.95 and a link to them. People have a look maybe buy and add a few more things.

    saying things like:-

    'crazy site sale'
    'you gotta see this'
    'oh happy happy day'
    'Man you guys have gotta'
    'brilliant stock clearance'
    'I'm over the moon with the price'

    people go and see some interesting inexpensive products but the sort of thing you see in the 'cheap shops' and are left with an odd feeling as the post is over the top for the items on offer.

    maybe collectors of starwars figures just get real excited.

    Could be! :)

    Point is, if it's a genuine poster who just found something he wanted to pass on, why is he trying so hard to convince us it's a genuine find?

    I would just have said, if you're not interested fair enough, it's no skin off my nose. But he is behaving as though he really wants people to go there. Why, if he doesn't have any interest in the site? How often does anyone else do this over some old bargain they found?

    Richardsmith or whoever you are, if you're interested in finding bargains, don't waste any more time flogging this one. Find some more, and share them if you like, or comment on other people's finds.

    If you stay around, make posts and chat, we'll get to know you and respect you like anyone else, and we'll be glad to have you.

    The prices sound good but i'd watch what i was buying, i've saw some of this stuff in poundland and various other stores for £1 or around that price.

    (ultra bright key was £7.95 for £3.95, the light up drinks coasters was £17.95 for £9.95, cappuccino makers, etc all £1)

    A lot of the other gadgets are available in the trophy centres at a lot less.
