yeah what i was hoping by starting at the middle of the month is that the touch pro through sprint will be released :> than go from there.... but i like the idea of the vote.... only problem i see with it is since we here at AMJ are mostly cdma being sprint mainly the other providers are going to get outvoted every time since there is simply less of them.... but i still think that there is enough of them to be straight with doing gsm phones every other month. and i will be getting the sprint phones from where i work and the other phones in person.
 
Re: Idea For AMJ

well we could just have a gsm phone setup and each time theres enough tickets sold its raffled off. you dont' necessarily have to put an end date. know what im saying?

Re: Idea For AMJ

or just do like the real lottery is done... ticket is good untill numbers is read, after words you put a lock or something soo somebody doesnt by next months tickets and thinks its for the drawing thats gonna happen the next minute... i think it be good... after first couple of raffles and ppl who participate they will understand... we should do it like woot.com does this is there "rules" "I see only one item, do you sell anything else?
No. We sell one item per day until it is sold out or until 11:59pm central time when it is replaced (see next entry for details). However, each item we sell is in stock and typically ships within 2-3 business days.
What is the schedule for new items?
The short answer: we offer a new item every single day. The details: a new product is released every morning at 12am central time, seven days a week. (If you're not a morning person, this can be described as every night at midnight. Better?) If a product sells out during its run, a new item will not appear until the next release time. You will know if a product is sold out, because the main page says "SOLD OUT" instead of "I want one". (Clever, eh?)
I missed yesterday's item, can I still get one?
No. Each woot.com product is discontinued at 11:59pm central time. That's that. Period. We may get more at a later date if we're lucky, but we offer no guarantees, we allow no backorders, and we have no waiting/notification lists. Too bad."

i like the idea :>
 
Re: Idea For AMJ

you also just raffle the phone and once the winner is declared then you email them asking if they want gsm or cmda/ what there carrier is. they respond back with shipping address and what they want and you order it with the raffle money, this takes care of the off brand people, and saves from having to ship in/out twice.
 
Re: Idea For AMJ

great idea... what it the winner doesnt reply within certin amount of time what happens?
but i like that method... dash we should get a thread bout the rules once this is underway and it gets posted with the thread of the lottery for the phone...
 
Re: Idea For AMJ

yeah but the way im looking at it right now we have under 15 different people reply so far and thats not enough yet to get this thing rolling..... what im hoping to see is more people throughout the next week and tonight at work i will be going through the posts and writing out all the rules and selecting the best, than i ill update the first post and see what everyone thinks of the rules that will be set :>
