**unicorn** - I don't believe this game is a "scam" or anything of the sort. BUT, my posts are all gone so......

jamieandseason: they haven't said any such thing, though I admit I've been limited in what I have said because I am paranoid!

~~~Perspective. Use it or lose it.

xottttt....so if i understand you right there was a freight car showing and it wasn't untill you hit buy it now that the congratulations sign came up???? AND you have to scroll down in the discription...and the discription looked normal till you hit buy it now??? Please explain and thanks for your info

It's actually a little creepy!

64dutchess: I think he meant the small pic in the upper left corner of the listing. All that is in the auction is a turbolister symbol and the "you're a winner" .jpg

when i hit buy it now, it acted like a regular auction. OH, and when i hit it, the pic of the freight car turned into the winning icon thing.

That leads me to believe he did not see the winning page till after he hit buy it now...man a lot of people could be buying things on accident that way!

I swear to GOD I checked the eitre list of DVDs many times betwen 2:00-3:45 PM.

I went to main DVD category, pressed the search button. It gives you entire listing list. Then I selected ranked it by highest price then I went to the pages for price $1000 because Ebay does not allow you to search items upto $1000 in the main category. There wasnt any treasure hunt listing of a movie.

I went for a cup of tea and now I came back after two hours its 5:45 pm here in Midwest and I am looking at ll the clues and answers and there it is the scary movie

for

east-west transportation breakthrough; another word for Scary Movie 4 DVD

What the Hell

They pretend that there is a hard one and no one is able to find and after few hrs they might have listed it actually and told someone go get it. Why they are not posting links to those pages that are won and why they are not releasing winners name.

This is ridiculous.

myjan-why are you searching for $1000 list price? The auctions do not have 1000 start price. That would be too easy. Most have normal start price for whatever the auction is for. Anything from .05 to $100. You may want to change the way you're searching.

I can't believe you people are so ignorant. Ebay is a very large public company. They are not going to make fake contests with no winners. If you were able to read, you would see that you can receive a list of winners in a month or so, if you request it. Ebay wouldn't risk their reputation over $250,000... please, stop being so bitter that you didn't win...neither did I.

Ty xott im glad u gave info. But, honestly even after I see what the answer to the clue is, i am still clueless. I cannot see a freight train in the clue and my mind wouldn't have gotten to it. But I'll try anyway a little here and there and LUCK may have something to do with it too.
Did you say u dont have to click on the listings cause the whole page has an indication of it being a winning page???
