nate_1979 9 #26 October 8, 2004 QuoteQuoteITs a marketing tool.. if you want to win something.. you have to put up with getting some email about the stuff on sale... I for one think its a good deal in this case. Most reputable sites now have a box that you can check saying you don't want to get promotional e-mail. I looked for that and didn't see it, so I asked about it in the original thread. I got a smart-ass remark about spam being canned ham. Now I see that I did get spam after all. That's a good way to piss people off and lose a potential customer, which is what has happened now. It's one email, and it's an email that I'm sure someone is going to use to get a killer deal for something related to an expensive hobby I love. Now if they turned around and sold my email address to 5 million other companies, i'd probably be a bit upset... FGF #??? I miss the sky... There are 10 types of people in the world... those who understand binary and those who don't. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ladyskydiver 0 #28 October 9, 2004 So....who was it? I received some SPAM...or at least, I hope it was SPAM and that I didn't delete the winner notification. Life is short! Break the rules!

Did everyone that is upset about getting "spam" really think that you wouldn't after filling out all that information??? I fully expected to be put on their mailing list at the very least. Sure I'm a little dissapointed that the email I got didn't say I was the winner but as someone interested in buying a Precision canopy I wouldn't even call what I got "spam" I call it a hell of a deal and if the canopy I was looking for was listed I would be ordering it right now instead of replying here.

I agree. Whatever e-mail I receive from skydiving related businesses, I don't call it spam. If i'm not interested, i just flush them. Yves. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Otherwise, they do have to get something for their free canopy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GroundZero 0 #34 October 9, 2004 QuoteSo who was this winner? Was it someone on this forum? Yes the winner is someone from this forum... and in that person's inbox is notification. Now I just need to hear from them before Monday Morning at 9:00 am CDT to confirm. We do need valid contact information. Someone tell her that she won... everyone check your email and get back to me. Chris... See round two for another chance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Opie 0 #48 October 9, 2004 QuoteHUM, you must not know who I am cause you didn't send me the winning email. Oh well I guess it is time for wine and the jacuzzi since I can't pick my custom colors. Evidently he does know who you are Congradulations LISA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now when you are ordering that canopy can you tell him who I am, round two is comming up you know Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mouth 0 #49 October 9, 2004 I'll gladly tell Chris who you are Opie cause you're such a sweetheart. Hey Chris, this is my good friend Opie. He is a cool skydiver, gentleman, and hot (not that you'd care about that). I still can't believe I won. I was just going to pop on here right quick since I was up then go back to bed but looks like I'm all excited and awake now. Thanks again Chris. Personally I really like this marketing idea. -- Hot Mama At least you know where you stand even if it is in a pile of shit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
