Re: What's the deal with Reddit?
I suppose it could happen. the moderators run a pretty tight ship over there and make it very difficult for someone to raffle a watch who isn't a long term raffle member....otherwise a newbie has to send the watch to a senior person to hold the watch in escrow in order to run the raffle.nweash wrote: ↑Thu Oct 10, 2019 5:14 pmI left Matt some feedback.

When it comes to raffles. Do you guys ever worry some seller wants to get his buddy his watch for cheap?
Say I list a raffle for a watch and my buddy pays the raffle fee. I get x amount of others to do it to cover my watch then just say my buddy won.
Seems easy to fuck with.
I felt the same way at first. I stopped feeling that way after the Speedmaster showed up on my front door.
Re: What's the deal with Reddit?
You have to use an automated raffle bot, so you type in a code in the raffle thread that calls the bot based on the number of slots in the raffle, then the bot responds to the thread with a random number within that range and that is the winnernweash wrote: ↑Thu Oct 10, 2019 5:14 pmI left Matt some feedback.

They are doing a Hulk today at 1pm eastern.... $14,500, 100 slots at $145 per slot, should be pretty crazy
Re: What's the deal with Reddit?
1:100 odds seem crazy but crazier things have happened... I actually ran into a dude today at a restaurant who entered a mini house contest at a home show and won! He couldn't afford the taxes so he has $50k coming his way. Crazy. He was the runner-up! The dude before him thought it was a prank call and forgot he registered!tyd450 wrote: ↑Fri Oct 11, 2019 7:14 amYou have to use an automated raffle bot, so you type in a code in the raffle thread that calls the bot based on the number of slots in the raffle, then the bot responds to the thread with a random number within that range and that is the winnernweash wrote: ↑Thu Oct 10, 2019 5:14 pmI left Matt some feedback.

Also ran into a gal this week who got a scalpel removed from her belly 6yrs after her C-section, complete with gruesome pics. It's been an interesting meet and greet week for sure.

Thanks for the info. That makes it seem way more legit if I ever wanna risk it.
Re: What's the deal with Reddit?
I finally joined Reddit the other day. Still trying to get used to the rhythm of how it’s set up. I definitely don’t navigate quickly or smoothly. Is there a way to keep everything threaded in time order? I get how it shows comments on the same posts in order but I’m just not used to reading it like that.
I’ve gotten bored messing with WUS especially with as annoying as that site is. I’m on my 5th or 6th name on there. Got banned as Torrid around 5 years ago. I think I only didn’t get discovered under my current name because I didn’t make it until I moved states. Either way it’s a waste of time so I may read if I’m looking for something, but posting for me is way down and I immediately regret any sale attempt over there and cancelled my last and decided to just keep it to avoid the hassle. I’ve heard a lot of good about selling at Reddit.

I use the Apollo app for iPhone. Helps a lot.

Nice recommendation. 3 minutes into using it and it’s already more intuitive.nweash wrote:Torrid wrote:I finally joined Reddit the other day.
