False advertising @ GoGamer?

Post by Daehawk »

If you go to GoGamer's front page and scroll down a little you'll see a keyboard contest. The 2 very first sentences are
No purchase required. Just place any order and you will automatically be entered in a daily random drawing to win the Daily Prize
.

So just how is it considered no purchase nessisary yet you have to place an order? Maybe its simply misleading. But it does seem kinda strange.

The "No Purchase Required" is actually a hotlink to the rules that says:
Don't have an order with us... no problem! To have your name entered to be in the Daily Winner drawing just email your name to dailywinner@gogamer.com. One email per participant.
You do not take from this universe. It grants you what it will.

I would like to add that i was the luck winner of the daily drawing!

What did I win? A Saitek backlit gamers keyboard with the command pad and a Saitek 3000 wirless game controller. i have to say that when i first saw them in the box i thought...uh oh I got someone else's order :-).

oh but i did buy something.
