Post by: *wheels* on August 04, 2010, 10:36:12 AM
Wow! How exciting! I received an email yesterday from PayPal with a Free Gift.

What did I get?


Thanks for being one of our most valued PayPal customers. We appreciate your support so that's why we are rewarding you with a $10 DealsDirect.com.au gift coupon*.



You may not be a most valued PayPal customer so, I thought I'd share  ;)

DealsDirect... Bwaaaaahahahahahahaha.

Sorry wheels lol, too funny.

DD is a company littered with scams, (as they were when selling on Ebay) I know personally of three independant individuals people that bought from them and were scammed a google search produces many more, some things never change.

DD CO says:
"One of our more exciting recent projects was very much behind-the-scenes; we implemented an integration with the eBay API to sell DealsDirect.com.au products on eBay. It is exciting for two reasons - firstly DealsDirect.com.au started out as an eBay venture and so it's very much a 'Back to the Future' concept for Mike Rosenbaum and Paul Greenberg (our co-founders); and secondly, I played a big part in this project as it seems to me to be a very big opportunity. I am very pleased - and admittedly relieved - to say that early signs are that it will be a great success."

DealsDirect.com.au originally began in 1999 under the brand AuctionBrokers Australia on eBay.

It would not supprise me if eBay had some sort of a stake in DD.

Spend that $10 wisely Wheels because the cheap and nasty item probably wont last long.

Ohh Liisa, you've spoiled the excitement!

I'll have to go and look to see what I can buy for $10, hopefully including postage.

For $10 you should be able to buy a truck load of shite from DD , their stuff is worth under 5c an item ....
even the $2 shop are too classy to stock the pus
