Enough reviewme’s already! Its time far more serious matters –who wants to win a free PS3 video game? We’ve got one which we bought when we ‘won’ a PlayStation 3 over at Darin.cc. Unfortunately its now two months later and we have not received the PS3 and by the looks of it, we’re never gonna either.

As excited as we were with winning, especially after we got screwed out of an iPhone we had also ‘won’, we went ahead and ordered a video game from the US as the PS3 was a US version. European games wouldn’t work. Eager as we were, we had it shipped as priority and it cost us over $100,00. And now we’re stuck with a copy of ‘Resistance - Fall of Darin Man’. Lucky you –we’ll give it away to someone random. Just leave a comment on this post and we’ll pick someone to send it off to.

About a month into the waiting for the PS3, we asked Darin what was up on IM. That’s where excuse #1 was used via Instant Messenger; “Oh hi Mr. Cow, you’ll never guess what happened! My wife just called me here at the office, and she says the PS3 was returned with the post just today. It doesn’t seem to have your address details on it!”.

Oh well, could have happened to anyone right? Surely any one of you at one point in your lives has posted a parcel and forgot to write a delivery address on it.

Anyway, Darin then told us he could still bring the PS3 back and get the money for it. He could paypal that to us in minutes! Even though the difference in price would be about $250 because the European version is more expensive, we agreed. Darin would pay us that very same day. NOT!

WTF! Then after a couple of weeks trying to get through to Mr. Darin via IM, he finally responded and guess what, he understood we were getting pissed off after 7 weeks and promised to paypal us the money once again that evening. He’s very busy at work you see. Its imaginable that 3 minutes of paypalling would mess up his busy schedule. Guess that’s why he still has not paid us the money he has promised twice now!

So two months later, no PS3, no money, no nothing. Fine whatever, Perhaps Darin just doesn’t like us. We can’t blame him. But we weren’t the only ones that won. Ms Danielle had won a Nintendo Wii in the very same contest we had won our PS3. Guess what; She’s still waiting for that Wii after two months! But wait, there’s more! Egonitron had also ‘won’ a prize from Darin.cc a little while ago. Seems yet again that he now is another blogger that has never actually received what Darin had promised him in a contest. Then there’s ContestBeat.com who ‘won’ an iPhone from Darin a few weeks ago. We’ve spoken with them via email about Darin’s iPhone contest. They still have not received their prize either.

Even though Darin was the first guy who ordered a reviewme with us for $200 and was one of the first sponsors on our new theme, we feel we have to warn anyone before entering any of Darin’s contests. It’s silly really if you think about it –Darin is trying hard to make a name for himself online in the PPC, SEO and SEM sectors. Doing things like this will definitely get him a name but most likely not one he can be proud of.

This ‘review’ was brought to you by JohnCow dot Com and has cost us $499,00. If there was even a slight chance that Darin was still going to pay up after two months, we’ve probably blown that away by doing this review.

Winner of the video game will be picked tomorrow kids! We’ll send it over to the winner if we’re not too busy forgetting to write your address on it.
