Why don't you buy from Scan?

[Zub]

I used to buy all my stuff from Scan and then got tempted away by Ebuyer when they came along. I also love browsing Hexus but have not really got into the community side of things. I always felt the shipping was sometimes too expensive and would have prefered a cheaper option like royal mail for smaller value items.

This looks like a good opportunity to get back to using Scan and to start contributing to the community!

You see, our plan is working.. *rubs hands together* *evil laugh*

This is awesome. I've been pricing up a few new systems over the last month or so and while I love scan to bits (have used them several times) their high delivery costs usually push me elsewhere - no longer!

Not all people trying to join for this offer will be dead weight if there is some minimum posts etc. For example, ill admit that i joined mainly to get a good look at the for sale section. However, by the time id posted 50 posts i was well into the community anyway and have never looked back.

[Dav0s]

yup same as scarlet...needed the big 50 posts, but i really like this community!

This is great news. I've placed a few orders with Scan, their prices are normally pretty good but the high shipping charge put me off, otherwise they would have had a lot more of my business.

Great stuff, I only live 5 mins drive away from Scan but this will save me the hassle of going to collect my stuff. Great news!

Is your number of posts going to affect whether or not you get this offer?

I have been a member of Hexus since April 04 (I believe!) but really only ever read what people say and tend never to post - this will only be my 2nd in all this time!

Great offer to be sure!

That seems a silly way to run it. You will simply get people padding posts to get their count up.

I doubt very much it will work by a minimum post system as that would be very unhelpful and to be quite frank a little pointless, i honestly dont know the way its going to work as yet, but im sure there will be a post from Hexus massys soon or from the gaffer here, so keep your eyes peeled.

What about people like me in Northern Ireland, does that mean that we only have to pay the £10 surcharge for shipping?

I've been a member since 29-12-2003 with 15 posts (including this one).

I've give SCAN a big WOO YAY, but I'm not on the www.b3ta.com messageboard. So....I'd just like to say JOLLY GOOD SHOW CHAPS
