I just won a coffee machine (71 comments)

( Journal: OT)

Posted by TAFKAagardenchair @ 03:23 CST, 11 February 2005 - iMsg

That's right! On ebay. They give away one coffee machine per minute Feb 10th - 16th (offer only available in Germany)

Proof: http://idunno.de/won.jpg

(For anyone from Germany who wants to do it: They ask you questions about the categories in ebay. I copied the directory infos into a large text file and searched for the answer in that file and then copied the answer very quickly into the ebay window. Took me about 20 questions to win.)

they give away 34560 coffee machines?

<< Comment #5 @ 11:45 CST, 11 February 2005 >>

10,000 of them, which roughly equals the minutes in 7 days. Your number would suggest a running time of 24 days.

uh yes, I did 60 * 24 * 24 (duplicated), when I thought I did 60 * 7 * 24

I know you don't care, but I just won another coffee machine on ebay. Getting the feeling that this is all but a big scam.

Hey, I know, I can sell it on ebay and buy WOW!

Im ebay-Forum scheint ja auch gut was los zu sein, was dieses Gewinnspiel angeht. Ger�cht: Die Kaffeemaschinen sind defekt und br�hen nur lauwarm .... siehe auch Kunden-Reviews auf http://www.guenstiger.de/gt/main.asp?produkt=349410

najaaa. ger�chte und so (und so, ne?). so lange ich echtes geld auf mein echtes konto kriege ist mir das echt egal. ist ja schlie�lich ovp ;o)

dieses pad-system finde ich sehr komisch. da steht man dann morgens mit unmengen von pads an der maschine und wartet l�nger als in der lokalen starbucksschlange nach schulschluss wenn man seine liebste (oder eben die eltern *g*) mit kaffee bekochen will? bah!

The conversation so far:

krauti in comment #14: I now have two as well, great innit? I hope I can hold myself back and get to 3 or 4, but worse are the people, who bid on these things, mwahahahaaa
krauti in comment #17: I've seen it coming, coffee machine number 3. mwahaha :o)
agardenchair in comment #18: Leave a few for me <g>
krauti in comment #19: Auction one of mine *lol*
agardenchair in comment #20: The ebay forum seems to be quite agitated over this too. Rumour: The coffee machines are defective and only brew handwarm...cf. customer reviews on http://www.guenstiger.de/gt/main.asp?produkt=349410
[Remark agardenchair: This has been proved as a lie, my coffee machines work perfectly!]
krauti in comment #26: Oh well, rumours and such (and such eh?), as long as I get real money on my bank account, I coouldn't care less. It's brand-new and factory sealed after all ;o)
I find this pad-system really odd. In the morning you stand at the machine and wait longer than in the local starbucks-queue after school if you want to make coffee for your loved one (or your parents *g*)? bah!
agardenchair in comment #30: With 3 machines running at the same time however ... :-)
krauti in comment #32: My first machine just arrived \o/
agardenchair in comment #33: Are there pads included?
krauti in comment #32: Yes, 24 of them. So far I get 40 Euros for them (plus postage) :o)
agardenchair in comment #35: Awesome.
krauti in comment #36: 166 Euros for three machines for a 15 minute effort, great, innit? :o)
daryl in comment #37: Ey, ihr Voll-Horste, k�nnt ihr ochma englisch plappern, is ja ned zun aushalde?!?!?

TAFKAagardenchair - Reply to #21

Cool, here's a tip: Apparently the machine will only make a cup of hot coffee after the second cup, so make one only with water first. Oh well, that still is much quicker than an Espresso with my Gaggia which takes at least 10 minutes to heat up.

I would use rhubarb if I liked it and if it didn't make me want to throw up. Everything that's slitghly bitter makes me want to puke (like "Tonic water", etc...).
