On February 1, 2009, we began our Win an Alienware® Gaming PC promotion, which will award the gamer who sells the game account with the best-written and most visually-attractive For Sale Offer description with a spanking new, top of the line, and free Alienware® PC! What will you do with this super-fast computer if you've sold your game account, you say? Who cares - it's a FREE, super-fast computer!
Once you've sold your game account on PlayerAuctions within February 1 - April 30, 2009, you will be entered into the contest, and PlayerAuctions will select 10 finalists with incredible For Sale Offer descriptions of their game accounts. These 10 finalists will be presented on the website for the player community to cast their vote on who had the most attractively-presented offer description. When we decide on who these 10 finalists will be, we'll be looking at how skillfully they present and describe their game account to potential buyers in, and the attractiveness of, their For Sale Offer. This means creative use of fonts, colors and images, and tempting titles! (We're not, by the way, going to judge your entry based on how über your game account is. No, that is much too simple. This way is more fun!)
The community will vote, and the gamer with the best-written offer description of his game account (as decided by fellow gamers) will win this really cool PC. But wait, there's more! The 5 finalist who receive the second highest number of votes will receive this Razer Copperhead Mouse, which is cited by IGN as their favorite Razer gaming mouse ever! I have mine in red.
If you're saying to yourself, "Aw, gee. I can't write good" or "How can I write a good offer description?"- no problem! We've created a guide called Making a Game Account Offer that Sells, which will walk you through the essentials - everything from the offer title, to price, to the description.
Remember, writing a great For Sale Offer description isn't just so you can try and win a free computer - it'll help you make that jump from "For Sale" to "SOLD".
So.... what are you waiting for? Sell your game account now and enter the contest!
