Cars.com | Weird torture campaign #2
by: Sarah

Here is the other video I talked about in the previous post.  Here is Death Ring, so you better give me what I want.

Enjoy the madness.

Cars.com | Weird torture campaign #1
by: Sarah

This video on the other hand is pretty funny. Cars.com came out with their “if you don’t give me what I want I will do horrible things to you” campaign. I like the fact that they are bringing rareness into the commercials. Like it’s rare to see the head shrinking shaman, or like in the video I’ll post later, a death ring. All good tortures, I’d like to see more though. Bring on the weirdness!

Buy.com’s Horrible Shipping Methods
by: Sarah

buy.comThis Christmas I decided to shop Online, for fear of the huge public crazily scampering about grabbing off the shelves. My mistake was shopping with one company who does not take security of deliveries serious enough.

Normal packaging to send anything is a plain box, usually brown. Well, Buy.com’s mistake was to send my package in the original box, no outer box to conceal the contents.

I am shocked to see the relaxed measure towards the security of my package. The contents of this package were not cheap’ it should have required a signature since I paid over $100 for it. The package also should have been disguised in a normal brown box.

Thanks to Buy.com, my Christmas is ruined. The person who happened to get the package from my porch was the gift recipient. Obviously, this is not Christmas; otherwise, it would not have been as bad. Thank you Buy.com, I really hope someone ruins your surprise.

 

Since receiving my package, I have since contacted Buy.com and now awaiting a response.

Update:

So I was looking for others who have had problems with Buy.com in the past.  A guy over at his blog had posted about never receiving his package.  Read that article here.  Another guy just posted a real short blurb about Buy.com and the comments on his blog are from people frustrated with Buy.com’s methods.
