Swoopo - PS3 for 20.30 Pounds?? Got onot..

Hmm, since I'm now in the SSC block a.k.a holiday or got-stuff-also-lazy-to-do block, I started spending more time infront of the computer.. 

I started by selling stuff on ebay lo..then hmm, sudenly let me come across this site:




So ..what is swoopo?
Its something like ebay la..a site where u can bid for ur stuff..and alot of their items (PS3, Wii, Xbox, laptop, computer, pendrive, etc..) all sold at a too-good-to-be-true price..I saw a PS3 sold at price of 20.30 pds..wahh!!!!!..n many more la..

So i go research abit lo...Where got so big golden egg jumping on the road rite(direct translation from chinese saying)..

To see a company legit onot, have to see whether logik onot they sell at so low price, how they earn?

Owh, so the catch is, u have to buy your bid before bidding.. 50p for 1 bid and each bid u place will raise the price by 10p. So if stg is sold at 40pds, the company actually earned 200 pds oredi..plus the 40 that u r paying for the item.. 

And, unlike ebay, the bidding doesnt end if the time gets to zero..if some1 bid at the last 10 seconds, the time will increase by 15 secs..to prevent last minute snipers..which is advantage to them too..

Hmm..so tipu 1 ka? hmm...no doubt got ppl win stuff la..but if u cincai bid its like gambling in casino lidat.. so have to berhati-hati di swoopo..

Another fella pula go create beatswoopo.com..haha.. they got kasi afew tips on youtube aa..
I've been trying 2 collect datas, like wad is sold at what time, n wad day, wad price..etc.. (if only I can do this as my SSC4 project) 

Takut takut also, 1 click 50p oredi lei..i see some fellas win with thousand over bids 1..So what is my first winning???

Tadaa... worth 24.99pds, i belik for 1.70..

hehe.. good first try..i din go try the big stuff like monitor or wad yet la..haha..the more money u bid, the higher the tension, some fella oredi bid berhundred-hundred, have to win the item, even though the price might be higher than its worth..

if u think u r ready to bid, think twice..sure got some1 else bid 1..even if din win also nvm, still got so many 2 bid on..noneed 2 try n catch that particular item..

Peringatan: look before you bid..dun throw money into salt water sea..
