All valid points. Does anyone have information about this company? It seems like somebody just randomly started their own Brian Gray type of company where they use deep pockets to buy cards and package up resale boxes.

Yeah seemed to be sound issues had to turn the volume up a lot. Outside of that really nothing going on.

what you posted is right. i'm not too surprised boomo won considering everything else suspicious they did.

Even if it was not rigged, just so many perceptions of conflict of interest with this company and everyone closely involved.

Well, I looked at the time on the randomizer. the first 3 randomizes were legit.. Never see the 4th and final random time, because they left the screen at the top of the randomization page to show Boomo winning.... so, who knows, really

From what I understand, those points are still good for the final prize competition thing.

how-it-all-works

The weekly contests are just for whoever redeemed the most points that week. Although if that's the case I'm not sure what the random was.

The top 5 competitors on the leader board will be awarded 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th & 5th Place Prizes.

HOS is a sucker product...almost like Leaf releasing product and then selling the advertised printing plates on ebay to make $$

It looks like these two rats were blowing each other in a dirty cubicle before the shady mortgage company they were working for went under.

Wow....can't believe people actually want to buy the points. So worthless. If all of these prizes had a good COA with the numbers posted for people to look the items up it'd make it better. He might get 1k from that auction and I'll just have to chuckle for every dollar spent.

This was the first thing I thought after watching. No time stamp on the last one. Not that the time stamp 100% proves anything really but that's just super bad form...

the word oblivious comes to mind when i see you post a thread about boomo or HOS.

PS - the guy in the white track suit is a dead giveaway that this product is a sham. those were never cool, unless you're from England and sell drugs.

I don't start it intentionally, I am a fan of the hobby and particpate in breaks in lots of forums, don't hate when I post some increible hits or prizes given away from a legit product, that BLOWOUT has sold

have they though?
They tried a break, couldn't fill, not sure if any has actually sold since I haven't seen one break posted, but I don't look at box breaks anymore. prove some have sold and I will put you on ignore so I don't see these posts anymore? Fair?

they are probably on consignment anyway.

trollahz unite!

oh and tell your GF that is banned that I will call ebay if I get one more message from him, instead of just reporting his messages everyday.

I really like watching Michael Bay movies from time to time. From every indicator, he's one of the princes of schlock cinema and a bad film maker. Everything in his movies is flammable and explosive. He orders all his on-set cameras with the optional shake-and-jiggle-to-avoid-a-clear-picture filter. He can't find a lead actor that doesn't whine, scream, and emote incorrectly through every talking scene. His sense of humour is that of a 6 year old from the 1980's with a coke habit. He knows absolutely nothing about scripting females in his movies....shall i go on?

Michael bay is not a good film maker. HoS, Boomo, and whatever they stand for are not good for this hobby.

We can still like them. Enjoy them. Heck, we can even give them our money. But let's not pretend they're any good at this.
