I was looking towards doing this site, since I have a bunch of yellows and one green on it, but it really doesn't look like it's worth it to me. I want to get the most for 8 refs. Can this site be upgraded a little? Because the stuff on there is worth around $300.

The referral amount should be lowered, or the items should be better.

I'm dying to start this site.

how many refs you need for this site?

J4320

21-12-2005 19:53:56

The site requires 8 greens.

I have 1 green.

I have forwarded this suggestion to my superiors and we will begin to work on adding new items to this site in the new year.

I will be the one in charge of searching for the replacement items, so if you have any suggestions on what to put on the site, run it by me and I'll work on getting it on the site.

I highly suggest you put dell lcds on there. You can get the dell 2005FPW for fairly cheap, especially when there are deals going on, which is almost always.

yea, the big dells are around $400 now i think.
maybe a newer sony wega tv.

Awesome. I'm basically looking for either an HDTV of some sort, which would be a LOT of referrals, or I'm looking for a big Dell flatscreen monitor.

They should just make another free site for plasmas or lcd's and then just change the freeflatscreens site to monitors.

That would be cool.

I definitely want to see high-end TV's and monitors, not the cheap $300 TV's. And they could just raise the referrals accordingly.

J4320

22-12-2005 10:25:52

The Dell 20.1" monitors are around $300-$400. That would match the 8 referrals. And that's about the size I want for my desk.

Iloveipods2

22-12-2005 13:51:23

Do the OC one, they got some reallly nice ones(not top of the line, but better than the current one I have). a few(i think 5?) have completed it the site over at a4f and i really need a new monitor.

Tell me when they remove OOD and then we can talk. Getting 20 referrals + OOD's at the end is too much IMO. Getting 20 people are hard enough that most will never finish.

for two less referrals too.

Gigante

23-12-2005 11:02:34

From your posts on here and A4F, OC must be paying you to post what you do. Their OOD start at 16, so that means you must get 5 people to do them. That is tough because nobody wants to do OOD.

Also, as many people have been DQ'd after getting 20 people as have actually gotten their item. A few actually got all 20 and they themselves were DQ'd, not just their referrals.

Gigante

23-12-2005 11:11:17

Don't get me wrong though, I still may give the site a shot, we will see.

no, i'm not arguing either site is better. freepay is like a god to me. i've just never had anytrouble w/ OC and have seen people say OC sucks when they've never tried it. i'm not telling you to do it. i'm actually trying to help the original poster that freepay should change the flatscreens on the site. but w/e interpret what i write in which ever manner you want wink

So, Iloveipods2, I'm waiting on my last ref to credit on OC. What should I get? The paypal or one of the laptops?

tylerc

PayPal, if FreePay offered PayPal I would take that.

J4320

23-12-2005 14:02:54

Yeah that's definately what I'm going with.

tylerc

23-12-2005 15:35:31

29-12-2005 13:31:35

I'd be interested in seeing some new options on there also. Especially since my account just got APPROVED! D I had just redeemed my account for my ipod the day before the nanos were added on the freeipod site. ? There's no harm in waiting to redeem my account is there? If not, I think I might wait a little and see what new options get added.
Thanks,

mindseye1

I think it'd be nice to see a 27" HDTV up there to replace the 27" wega. With the way prices are dropping on these things I don't think it'll be out of the question. Will Gratis be sending out information to people to notify us if they change the lineup?

any updates Jake?

chazmann

10-01-2006 11:33:04

I fully agree with updating this site. Most of the lcds are outdated and are well in the 150-200 dollar range...when I last checked my book, 8 refferals for 200 bucks isnt the greatest deal in the book.

Considering you can get an 360 for 8 refs which is 400 bucks.

If I had it my way, I'd put a decent hdtv 26 inch up there and a few decent sized lcds in the 24 inch range.

I know I wont be touching this site any time soon until it gets updated.

ragefu

12-01-2006 15:20:23

Looks like the changed the tvs. Now there's just 2 options, either the 27" WEGA or a 20" Viewsonic LCD TV. No more monitors unless they're adding some later

tigowoods

12-01-2006 15:59:17

I wonder if that means we will now have new flatscreen monitors being put up.
