On Monday I’m going to order some Drift 720 cams. I’ll put up a Boardworld Members special some time today (I hope), will be under $200. Trying to get the numbers so I can order more than 5.

I am, super keen!

When would the money be due if I did put my hand up?

the top search is for x rated cams, almost dragged me in

Yeah, it is hard to distinguish it from them as well. Just an idea, perhaps you could chuck a Snowboarder Stencil or something on it to help that?

Since I’ve been busy all weekend I didn’t get a chance to put up the specials.

A show of hands now is enough for me gauge, with you Oz, and Rick and coop3 indicating an interest along with the others I was ordering, I’m happy to order 5, if I do end up with an extra camera I’ll keep this price on it.
I’ll hold off sending the order until tomorrow to see if a few more BWM show interest (if I order 10 or more a very good discount will be made)

Payment will be due next week (monday/tuesday).

Just a warning. if you type in xcam in the FB search function, alot of xcams pop up…none are spaz

It will take me a long time to build up a good search index with google with that competition. Although many describe what I post as snow porn, I also though I will ride on the back of the porn industry with my site being named xcam.

D’oh! “fb search” (spaz moment!) I used google and it came up as the second result!!  teacherboy

In facebook search -  after typing “xcam” in the search bar filter it to pages and it should show in the first 4 results (now I’m tempted to check out my competition on fb) big surprise

Sadly I will have to be a no :-(

I could afford it in June though.

Spaz why don’t you post something on said xcam facebook page to drum up more buyers?

Has to do with offering lower than retail price and it’s shunned upon as undermining other dealers and the Brand. This price is special for BWM only.

I can hold out on your payment until June Oz. Or we can work out payment as instalments over a period.
You get the camera once 50% is paid up and the rest in segments.

This is open to BoardWorld Members with posts over 50.

So does this mean that I am eligible to buy 372 cameras?????

Fine I will do it! (that is very nice of you Spaz to carry the financial burden!)

Will just mean not much drinking this month! (haha)

I’ll need payment by monday Mizu but delivery could take a while. I’m sure I can come up with a better price for that many.

To woo you from GoPoo and because of your amazing post count I’ll make you a very special price on the Drift720.

I have the big brother of this camera (the Drift HD) and I found the wrist mounted remote pretty handy while at the snow

I keep the remote on a lanyard around my wrist. Then I can operate one handed.
