[ishalalwayspaintball]

[Hackermarket]

I tryed to go to the site, and nothing, i think it shut down XD

[daniel06121]

it says theyve been undergoing upgrades for a long time now...

[xNinjaPenguin]

ther is a video of somebody unboxing what they won.

the website was down. they have posted their side of the story on the site it is now fixed.

[PaintballKitty]

one person has come forward, with an air tank, not a gun or anything big.

They still havent fixed their problem sadly. Trust me dude I WANT this site to work and come out being legit.

[xNinjaPenguin]

yea. it would b kool. they say its fixed but i dont think i would try it.

[skyeric875]

@PaintballKitty wouldnt blame you, id big for any gun for about 18 bucks, especially a geo, id pay 100

[zakmasur35]

thats a really good idea, too bad it doesn't work

[pepsidude308]

1.its a scam

2.a 10 year old mad everything and istead of it bing a error he just takes your money and dosent know how to end actions and dosent know how to ship items

[PBGUY12]

[CherrySquishee]

I saw your lame ass post on 05-01-09 and now it says its shipped???? Your efforts fail...

[CherrySquishee]

He posted a video supposedly showing his i4s. He still needs more proof.

[NeonBond]

oh i get it, its like other people r paying for your gun with bids. seems like a good idea too, too bad the site doesnt look too good right now.

[CaKarRo]

Kitty the fucking website is a scamer site you spend 9 hour of your live testing a website to get scamed, im sorry for that. Im wating that the website gets demanded or ban for ever and stop scaming more people.

[orchidazrael]

if it seems to be too good to be true, it usually is:) Hope you figure it out.

[commandercup]

Their faq says it takes 10-14 days to get an item shipped out...

[PaintballKitty]

they had a massive software error....... no way to pay

[broboter56]

yea now it says that paintballbidwars has won so i guess they will put it up again......sorry your probably not gonna get it but keep trying.

[SnipingPunkazz]

Yes bidwars had to reload their site due to a server problem. I won a cp 68 4500 lp for 91 my bids included. My friend won a 09 ego for 123 and resold it for 850. It is not a scam...my friend has also wona rotor and events. very lucky guy.

[broboter56]

please please reply to this....is there a teknique to this i really need to know send me a private message..... i would really appreciate it

SCAM

[Paintballer112893]

This is a scam kitty. Lets Take them down!

[kingpaintball4life]

great video Kitty!!! How are you?

[android17ak47]

has to be a scam. no1 in thier right mind would put up a geo in an aucion if they didnt have a high reserve.

[PaintballKitty]

your not understanding how the site works.

The auctions as stated before go up in 1cent incriments, its costs the bidders 75 cents each time they bid... so they took in $1.4k just over infact just in bids alone.

[android17ak47]

i posted this comment before you explained this to me in the chat room.

[inoyomama]

no geo for you :(

[SupaFly42]

and to think that 20.00 geo probably made their company close to $2000

[paintballtechpb]

first post

[PaintballKitty]

muppet

[G3Paintball]

i was wondering the same thing

[wishihadaname94]

SCAM

[shutts67]

I tried signing up to see what it's about and couldn't. Maybe the shut down all new sign ups?

[antifat08]

well, duh, they are going to say software error

but if it was legit, it would be a really good system, they get enough to buy the marker, and the winner gets the marker cheap

[PaintballKitty]

it happened twice. Once with a DM9 at $57 with Mike and I, we went to pay before screen shotting sadly. So if its a software error they need to fix it, happening twice is not cool.

[paintballer2xtreme]

Kitty, how ya doing? Haha, i've been in touch with the owners, they've now upgraded to a better software, if you look at the top. It says Paintball bid wars RELOADED. Now toinght, 5/8/09 i saw mike bidding on a invert mini. It had 5 seconds left and he was outbidded. The pause is only there when the site is EXTREMELY over crowded. And if you email them then they are extremely nice and will refund all your bids you placed. Also, my friend timmy won a prophecy and 09 distortion.

[inoyomama]

bababababullshit.

[Armorroyal08]

i gave them $10 worth of bids...and then i see this. well shit.

[nintenske]

yeah, taking an easy way out (lol paying $20.00 for a geo) is not the best way to go.

[PaintballKitty]

actually the business model works. You buy bids, 75 cents is charged every time you click bid, the auction goes up in 1 cent incriments. Meaning that auction even though the geo was under $20 they took in about $1.5k - covering cost of geo.

So in theory it should be fine, like i said we were testing it out by request of TechPB users

[PaintballKitty]

Yep same happened with a DM9 at the w/e, I won and went to pay and it went to someone else.

We get alot of people asking about it on TechPB which is why I took it for a spin, this time however I got proof.

I have yet to find anyone who has won and recived big items from this site that have no way of being connected to the company - I hope however someone can prove me wrong.

[crazylittle]

Sigh. This is why people should deal with established companies.

[ElCeddo]

Interesting.
