This site functions the same as all of the other YFDirect sites. They list all of their items on the front page of www.GadgetCity.com

They have iPod shuffle for 1 offer, 2gb Nano is 2, cell phones and 4gb nano are 3, Video iPod for 5 along with Flatscreen TV's and Laptops for 6 I believe.

Any questions or information regarding GadgetCity should be posted here.

Phones are all 3 offers, I think Tv's may be 6.

doh deleted my post and never replied to it ><

Does it work like other yf sites where i can do 6 offers on first page for laptop. Also which is the better laptop the hp or toshiba? or should i go for ibook and resell on ebay and by laptop for around 850? I plan on getting a laptop for games/dvd's/college notes and such. Also which is the most expensive gift on their site?

Gigante

Laptops are most expensive and it functions the same as all YFDirect sites.

i'm new to the DIY world, so i'm a little confused (i.e. skeptical). I'm almost done w/ my first site w/ freepay, but this looks easier. any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Today is day 45 for me, and my offers aren't approved. They still show in progress. I tried emailing them early today but nothing has changed. I guess I will have to call them when I get home from work.

SteveGetsGear

19-01-2006 16:24:19

phoebe7,

Is it the 45th day from your signup (with the day after you joined being "day 1"), or the 45th day from going "in progress"?

I was approved on my 45th day from going in progress, so that's probably the delay. )

Wolfeman

Phone is always fast... I Love talking to their CS on the phone because they always seem to know the answer off the top of their head...they will approve and send you the links usually before you hang up the phone...

Wolfeman

It is scamming the advertisers. They don't pay to have the same people do their offers and will eventually not pay the companies and then the companies close down. Its against the rules to talk about fraud here, don't do it...

Yeah. You don't have to use the same card to do all your offers...

chazmann

02-02-2006 00:03:22

Whew.

So...I completed 5 offers on everyfreegift.com yesterday...any idea on what sort of time frame im looking at to see when they will go "in progress"?

I know I can wait 45 days and get manual credit, I have all the confirmation emails...but it's comforting to have them in progress. 8)

Wolfeman

02-02-2006 00:07:00

It depends, they should all be within 10 days...

Since i've already got one offer for the shuffle, i can count that offer toward any gift, which makes it a lot easier.

i'm leaning toward the laptops, but what one would you guys suggest?

I just wanted to know if I need to take any action today, referring to doing more offers and stuff on gadget city since it is total crap that they uped the requirements for the ibook.

I know I understand their reasoning for raising the offer requirments, but I am someone who gets freebies, not someone who owns a site which gives them out so I like it when the offers are low, but of course none of us want them to go out of business either so I guess its good they raised requirments.

And what are you doing? Sticking your nose into something that has nothing to do with you in any way to start a fight.

As a mod we've worked really hard to make the FAQ and try to organize this so questions can be found easily. As a mod I have to keep an eye on every thread and in doing so seeing the same fucking questions asked 100 times when I just put that answer in the FAQ is really obnoxious. They might as well ask "I'm lazy so someone explain everything to me". At least they are being honest then.

I have a question, but I don't think it's something too obvious.

I signed up for the iBook at GadgetCity before the # of offers was raised and the offers themselves changed. Now, I can't complete it, because as many of you already know, page 3 is literally 100% CC offers, and I don't need any of those.

I noticed there are two things I can still complete

Game Boy Micro = 1 offer (page 1 only)
2GB iPod nano = 3 offers (page 1 and 2)

Here's the deal I signed up for two offers already (and one of those is In Progress) towards the iBook. Can I apply those to something else? Or did I waste a few minutes and a few bucks? Thanks for your help, guys.

crazyates

06-03-2006 15:58:12

yyr

this has been answered in the past, so all you have to do is look.

as long as you have one voucher w/ the correct gift, you can cross out the wrong gift on the other vouchers and write in the new gift you want.

example you have two offers in progress for your iBook. You do one more offer for the nano. then you cross out the wrong gift on the other two vouchers, and replace it with the new gift (cross out iBook and write in nano). As long as at least one of the vourchers has the correct gift on it, you should be all set

yyr

06-03-2006 19:50:46

OK, thanks. The only sites I've completed in the past were NUI Tech sites, so I was under the impression that you could only get a voucher after completing ALL offers. After a bit of reading, I see that YFD isn't like that...

My only worry is that with all their policy changes and DQ-slapping recently, they might consider doing everything they can to screw me, which would include saying "oh, sorry, that offer only counts towards an iBook." I guess I'll wait until I'm ready to send the vouchers and call customer support about it.

If anyone else tries doing this sooner than I do, please post your results. I don't think I've seen anyone try this and talk about it since all of this happened a few days ago.

Seven weeks after mailing my certs, I still hadn't had my status switched over to "shipped". I emailed them last week to ask wtf was going on, and they emailed back today to tell me they didn't receive my certs. Has anybody else had this hassle pop up? I emailed them my tracking # (which confirms the delivery back in the middle of January), but I was wondering if I should do anything else to get on top of this.

RolltheStampede

07-03-2006 13:04:21

well you should have called them to confirmed they recieved you certs.
What are you waiting to get shipped. If its a Tv you may have a long wait. I got another 2 weeks till my 2nd 45 days hits and they will be getting a cll from me to see when i should recieve my tv or for them to offer me the cash.

Ok.. question
I called them and then they sent the approval e-mails.
But there are three of them. I don't get this. Why do I have 3? I understand its for each of the offers i did, but do i need to click each link seperately and fill out the info.. or just one?

Also, is there a time limit on yf-direct (after being approved on your offers to the time you order)

igneous

20-03-2006 12:47:13

You have to fill out all three and mail all three in.
Today is 8 weeks from when they got my certs for my HP laptop, so I SHOULD be getting it very soon. I hope they shipped and haven't updated the site. I emailed them today to find the status though.

Wolfeman

20-03-2006 12:48:34

Each offer has a voucher. You have to click the link and fill one out for each one and mail them all in together.

Time limit? Not sure but the quickest you'll go shipped from the time they get your vouchers is 6 weeks. If you are asking if you have to send them in by a certain time, I think its like 2 months but I'm not 100%

So i just have to send the three 'congratulations' reward things in..
they don't need the certificate number listed at the bottom (which has some more numbers)

Also.. do I have to include a w9 form in it as well?

thanks

Yes, you still have to give a W-9. The only difference is that you probably won't have to pay taxes on it next year. But the government still has to be notified with the W-9.

The anticipation of you getting more from the same company is probably why they are making you fill one out.

You should still be able to get in with 6 offers. Whatever is on page 3 is what you gotta do...[/quote0891da605f]

NO NO NO!!! Wolfeman is wrong, Don't LIsten to him!!!

You must do the offers needed NOW, not when you signed up, he is confusing Nui-Tech and YFDirect... Don't start doing offers!!! You need to sign up again and see how many offers, and do them on the right pages!!!

I guess the question is now if you are waiting on manual credit for an offer but instead you chose to do a new offer to replace the one thats on infinite crediting will you have to do offers for the new requirements.

Like say i signed up for the 10 offer arcade. only 9 aapproved an one in probobly never going to get manula credit.
If i do another to replace that offer do i have to do another 14 offers since the arcade i now 24

Congrats

I wish I was smart enough to go for the Plasma TV when I could. My sister actually did 5 offers for like a $400 Digital Camera, when she could of done one more and got a plasma TV! But I didn't realize that yet. (This was on everyfreegift)
Then later that same day I did GadgetCity for a Razr w/ iTunes. I slacked off on sending my certs, but I e-mailed them sunday and they replied the next day. They said they received it the 12th and it'll take 6-8 weeks.
If I sent them in right when I was approved I probably would of had it by now. It's Ok though, I have verizon wireless so I can't use it anyways P

I looked around and didn't see anything, so I'm gonna take a chance and ask this question.

For those who have received Xbox 360s from gadgetcity, if anyone has, where did they ship from?

enthegen

02-06-2006 12:13:45

I finally got my iTunes Razr yesterday. Bout time! Started for it back in... February?
I knew I couldnt use it (got Verizon) but it sucks that I cant even play with it. I cant do anything with it without a sim.
Onto eBay it goes I guess.

I'm in the same position as you... I have verizon and my razr itunes should be coming within the next month. Let me know how much money you sell it for on eBay.

I called them Thursday and they told me that they found my w-9 and applied it to my account. The lady estimated that my Xbox should ship "early next week." Of course, that's this week. I hope that by "early" she meant Monday! Does anyone know how long it actually takes for the item to arrive once they put in the order? Also, where does it ship from?

'cuz i signed up for the razr V3i and left ...and now i can't log back in and i keep doing a password retrieval and it says it's emailing me but nothing EVER comes!!!

can i sign back up or what do i do?? help (

i called up...apprently you do have to resign up each time...well u're not resigning up but you do have to do the same process and then it will recognize you...

dumb...

tjwor

12-06-2006 11:38:36

yea, they don't make it any easier for us to get to the offers page (, I think they do it so less people will know how to get back, and give up after completing offers already...

oh wowzers...bookmarks whats that...heh

but yea bookmarking it may work 'cuz your info is in the URL, however it doesn't appear that your phone nor your bday date is there

"phone1=&phone2=&phone3=&birthday_m=&birthday_d=&birthday_y=&gender=&site"

so not sure how they are storing that so i'll probably just do the resign up thing

im not sure about good ones but there's
everyfreegift
Marketsurveygroup
bigwin

13-06-2006 04:01:17

internetopinioingroup is a good one
anyfreegift will get you a 2 or 3 offer Nano if you can find it (listed as a Mini, if you need the link PM me)

I think thats about it tho...

pays2shop or something is one, but idk how reasonable it is... (just checked it out, 6 offers $500 but Ooh what a last page ()

Has anyone had crediting problems with this site? I did 6 offers over a week ago. 2 of them show In Progress and the other 4 only show pending.

07-07-2006 15:52:45

Ok, so I Gadgetcity has received all of my forms on 4/28/2006 and my W-9 on 5/22/2006. It has been over the 6 weeks minimum that they suggest contacting them. I sent an e-mail...this is their response back

"Our records indicate that we received your certificate(s) on 4-28-06. At this time we are experiencing difficulty in shipping this product but your gift will ship to you as soon as possible. We apologize for this delay and any inconvenience this may cause."


Has anyone had any similar experiences with them with such a delay?

Granted, it's just a Shuffle, but come on.

double_d

07-07-2006 17:54:16

I'm having a similar experience with InternetOpinionGroup. I received the same email. You'll get your shuffle. My advice is to wait another 4 weeks and if you don't have it by then, give them a call. July 5 I talked to a CSR after being "Confirmed" for 8 weeks and she told me my gift card would ship around mid-July.

tjwor

20-07-2006 07:48:35

Anyone else get this? I got it but "CreditGift.com" doesn't work... I got an Ibook from GC a long time ago... and it had to have come from YFD because it had my password and stuff...

I just did a WhoIs search and it is owned by YFD so it looks like a new site comming out... which would be cool without teh credit card offers shrug

Guys, I decided to go with GadgetCity since it seems like the easiest DIY 5G iPod site despite the long wait. Plus, it's the last YFD site I can do.

I'm having trouble getting my account set up though.

YES, I have tried www.gadgetcity.com/confirmation.jsp?email=PLACEYOUREMAILHERE

but it redirects me to the homepage. WHen I even try to click on the link to set up my account and type in my email, it says it's not found.

YFD CS told me it can take up the 24 hours for the account info to show up, but I've never had any problems with the other sites.

Any suggestions, or is this something I have to call up YFD on Monday morning?

GeoLeoY

26-09-2006 11:51:20

two questions

1. has anyone gotten something from netblue without sending in a W-9?

2. for those who have gotten ipod nanos from GadgetCity - from what company were they shipped?

i sent in my vouchers (but no w-9) a few weeks ago and i was wondering what i would be up against for the next few months.

thanks!
