any of you tried that Domino's Ebay deal?

[crzyjournalist03]

Domino's is selling high-valued products for $9.99 every day. All you have to do is solve the clue, search for it, and buy it now, and it's yours. Today they're giving away Mac Laptops, worth over $1500. And I just got so ridiculously close to getting one that I'm sick!!!! I actually found the listing, clicked on it, and as I clicked on it, it became sold!!!!

What is this thing you are talking about?

[AggieJohn]

where can you find this

[crzyjournalist03]

click on the "goods" link (http://dominos.ebay.com/?WT.mc_id=BAN-06P13-EBYATG-01)

[crzyjournalist03]

they give away five per day during a certain time span...you have to already have ebay and PayPal set up to win, because you have to buy it now for a total cost of 9.99! I'd tell you guys how I found the listing, but I don't want to hurt my own chances!!!

[Adidas410s]

so have they already given away all 5 for the day? I'm not making any sense of the words that are supposed to come out of this thing.

no, there are still some that will be released in the next couple of hours or so...they release them one at a time, then take some time between releasing the next one...you have to use the clues and make it like wheel of fortune for today's clue...use the hints, and start plugging letters in and see what you come up with...all of them have to do with stuff that dominos is known for

yeah...but once you take ELGM and change the G to N...I'm still not getting a word...

no...all of the letters stand for other letters...you have to figure out what letters each other letter stands for...I did it by taking a piece of paper and writing blanks, then filling in the blanks with the letters they give you.

yeah I figured out it's not a word jumble like some of the others...

[pirate4state]

okay, so _L_SS_ _ hand tossed pizza ??? :confused:

[crzyjournalist03]

hmm...the first item I found was listed at exactly 11:00:00 PST...I wonder if they only list at exact times?

[crzyjournalist03]

k I got it figured out...that wasn't that hard!

[Adidas410s]

so do you just keep searching those 4 words over and over?

[pirate4state]

okay, that was easy - what do we do now?? LOL

[crzyjournalist03]

Originally posted by Adidas410s

pretty much...you'll know it when you see it, if you find it! Believe me!!!!

[Adidas410s]

I wonder how late in the day this thing runs...

[crzyjournalist03]

don't know about that...the clue yesterday was released at like 9:45 pm...everyday they do the game at a different time, and they don't list new products for a while after the first one has been found...I'm guessing within the next couple of hours, all five will be gone.

[crzyjournalist03]

If any of you are wondering how hard/easy it is to buy if you find the item, the first one was listed for 14 seconds before it was bought.

[crzyjournalist03]

hmm...it's now been over an hour since the previous listing...i wonder when the next one is???

[AggieJohn]

hmm. i'm looking

[crzyjournalist03]

I'm wondering if this is one of the sellers!

http://myworld.ebay.com/classic-hand-tossed/

[AggieJohn]

i've got the answer in the ebay search and i'm just hitting f5

[Snyder_TigerFan]

So, I think I'll sell a few thumb tacks as "the clue" for 9.99. I bet I could sell a lot.

I'm not sure how many they gave away before I found one, but I've been hitting refresh ever since I have and haven't found another...and the one I found wasn't long after the clue was posted, so I'm assuming they've given away three at the absolute max.

[Snyder_TigerFan]

If you search completed items, they've only given away 1.

[AggieJohn]

k

how exactly do you do that?

[AggieJohn]

do you know that their are 239 listings for tossed pizza

[Snyder_TigerFan]

Click the advanced search and it gives you the option to search completed items. Very handy.

sweet! You're right! Only one sold today! And to think, I was a mere seconds away from owning it!!! I actually found it in the listings when I was searching!

[AggieJohn]

if we win this, we'll split it

[Snyder_TigerFan]

They are giving away some pretty good stuff...

[crzyjournalist03]

here's another interesting tidbit...if you look at some of the past listings, products usually are listed at even time intervals...so once the second one is listed, you should be able to predict the time that the third one will be listed!!!!

[AggieJohn]

not necessarily, but there does seem to be a method to the listers madness

[crzyjournalist03]

Dang...I've got to head out in about fifteen minutes...if they don't list another one by 3, I'm hopeless!!!!

[AggieJohn]

[crzyjournalist03]

the question a couple of days ago was "how many slices does each man, woman, and child, eat on average in a year?" The answer was 46...that seems pretty low to me!

I've had 32 in one sitting once.

[crzyjournalist03]

nothing at three...I'm out for a while guys! Get one for me!!!

[AggieJohn]

i noticed that the other one was sold at 9.00 this morning....and now it's three
i bet the other four are sold within an hour

[crzyjournalist03]

I dunno...most of the other listings were sold about every fifteen minutes...Maybe they listed one really early, and they'll list the other four every fifteen minutes for an hour???

[crzyjournalist03]

AAAAAAAAAAAGGGGHH!!!!

They just listed one and I was in Paypal checkout and someone else checked out just before me!!!!

[Snyder_TigerFan]

Someone in Dripping Springs....Is that anyone here? I almost got it but I forgot our paypal password.

[AggieJohn]

dang it...
i'm monitoring it closer

[AggieJohn]

i think if they do list it it will be at 15 minute marks

[AggieJohn]

second one was up for sixteen seconds

[Adidas410s]

[AggieJohn]

[AggieJohn]
