eSpares Fiat 500e comp

I'm utterly bewildered by their Ts & Cs:
For the purchase route they state that they require a minimum of 300 words but, notwithstanding, the winners will be picked at random! What, then, is the point of going to creative effort in that case???? What in the world is the reason for such totally contradictory declarations????
Re the npn entry method, there's a further conundrum: the rules state that bulk entries will not be accepted but they also say that multiple entries are permissable... Huh? How can both assertions be correct????
Perhaps I'm missing the blindingly obvious answer to these twin queries. If so can some enlightened person please unequivocally clarify for me? My thanks in anticipation.

Many competitions that require "wordage" are winners selected at random (much easier to comply with the regulations if they are not judged)
I don't know the competition but if it is a postal free route then several entries sent in the same package could be counted as "bulk" but lots of entries sent separately would be multiple2 -

How to enter
There are two ways you can enter:
Order on eSpares
Complete your fixes by spending over £30 (excluding delivery) on anything on the eSpares site! Each time you spend over £30, from now until the end of June, you will get another entry into the draw!
Send us a letter
We love to hear fixing your stories! So, you can also enter by sending us a letter explaining why repairing is important to you. Again, you can do this as many times as you like for multiple entries. You can download the letter template here.
thanks to all posters
