Post Just received my New V1 for $55

Guys, i just received my V1 from one of the matrix sites i had posted about a month ago. I know a lot of you do not believe in these, but i paid $55 about a month ago and today i just received it, brand new and in the box with all the accessories.

Pyramid type scheme.
You pay $55 now and wait for 9 more people to pay and then you get your product.
As anyone can see, if you don't get in early, you don't get a product.

Right, i was number 5 on the list when i signed up so i needed a total of 50 people to sign up for me to receive my v1. It took about a month for me to get but it was worth all the $55 i spent. I should got a couple of them because i think that now 2 more people after me got it too. They also over products such as plasma screens, laptops, ipods, a clarion dvd player and some other stuff.

50 people at 55$ a pop... why does that sound like a bit more than a V1 should cost.

assuming 400$ price for a V1, it means 7 people have to not get one for every 1 that does.

your lucky it worked for you. but I dont like them odds.

You need 10 people to sign up for the 1 person the list to get it. So a v1 cost 400 and 10x55=550 . So they get $150 of profit for every 10 persons that sign up

So if you pay your 55 bucks and not enough people come in after you, then you just lose your $55?

right, so basically the 50th guy who signed up ( i needed him to receive my v1) needs 50x10=500 persons to receive his v1. He is going to have a long wait, that's what's shitty, unless you are in the first ones on the list

so what you do is just give the $55 and wait? or do you personally have to get the 50 people sign up?

right, you pay your 55 bucks and just wait until you are on the top of the of the list. Anybody can sign up. Every 10 persons that sign up, the first person on the list receives his v1. So if you are in 5th position on the list, you need 5x10 persons for your turn to receive your v1, same if you are 6th or 7th (6x10 or 7x10 ...)

lungta.
when you do this do you know what position you are on the list or do you just have to hope for the best? also where can i check this out....I would really like a V1 for $55 even if I have to wait for a little while, because I'd take me a while to save up the $400 for one anyway.

No you see where you are on the list and also see other people signing up.
The site is http://www.100dollarlaptops.com
I was number 5 and my number was 21384679 . There is now 68 people signed up and you would have to wait a very long time before you get yours. If you sign on and you are number 69, you would have to wait a total number of 690 persons for you to receive yours, which is a whole lot. There are many other sites that function the same way and if you just do a research on any search engine for matrix sites, you will find a lot of them and a listing of the best ones and new ones...
I would suggest you try to find a site that had just oppened recently and where the list is not too long.
