EDIT I just read the following on the notes attached to the YouTube vid: "we manage to get our hands on one ahead of release" so I guess it's not yet released :(:(

Hande hoche!

Seems Zeta labs may have a SVT planned. http://www.everything-airsoft.com/blog/2011/09/20/zeta-lab-svt-40-sniper-rifle-aeg-prototype/ Should be a nice WW2 choice.

I hate it when people do this.

if people want a saving, join the facebook group, Don't go posting the promotional code, for facebook members randomly around the net. Its not very fair to Ehobby.

you're joking right?

not very fair? im sure as they intend, it will draw customers that otherwise wouldnt have spent a penny with ehobby.
not much benifit giving promotional codes to people that already shop with you.

I know of companies that have pulled promotions because what was for members was suddenly released into the open and taken advantage of by everyone with no return for them [the company].

Ehobby may want people to take advantage, but they also clearly want people to subscribe to their advertising streams in return. The above does not do that; hence they may decide to pull their campaign or be far more restrictive in future and everyone else loses. Far easier to just say that they've got a sale on for members and all you need do is sign up to their facebook page for details. Job done.

You also clearly haven't given much thought as to why companies might try to entice existing customers ... i.e. people who have spent money with them in the past ... into buying more stuff.

Alan b.

of course they would want repeat custom, but the chance to increase their customer range would be more appealing then attracting people that would shop with them anyway.

hardly a very secret way of using promotional codes in fairness,
linking it to facebook and the code being as cryptic as it is.

im sure they are fairly aware that a lot of people will get the cde without subscribing, or would subscribe to check it out, then unsubscribe just as quick.

its not like a company giving out individual codes to customers that have used them, and that customer sharing their codes.

There is a difference between someone spreading a code by word of mouth among their friends, and someone posting a code for all and sundry on the internet. The end result is the same, it's the volume of said end result that makes a rather large difference.

Anyway, I've said all I need to say. Agree, disagree, I could care less.

Alan b.

posting anything oin facebook IS posting for all and sundry on the internet.
one of the biggest parts of facebook is the copying and reposting of information all over the place.

anyway, im sure they wont refuse the custom.

ya that was on here before but i think it was an ares version

F.U.B.A.R

Its more practical then the ares model though as the batterry goes in the gun and not the mags its also mostly metal but the dust cover is just for show and isnt a functioning safety

So if the ares one was on here before, this HASNT been on here before... as its not the Ares one... logic?
