Free Antannae Booster for cell phones, you pay Shipping $2.xx for US

[CirekL]

Personally... I think these things suck. I got one for free with my cell, and it didn't do anything but add a few more grams to the weight. Anywho... it's FREE... unfortunately for the $2.00 shipping. At least it's cheaper than the $5 Ubid is selling these for.

The title should say that you pay shipping. Its not really free...

 

[CirekL]

Done

Plus, this thing is notorious for doing nothing. So, for $2, I'm not quite sure if I'd call it a hot deal.

Its uselessness been addressed in several threads already, I think.

 

[CirekL]

I'd say, if you can get a ton of these, fleabay them for $3.00 shipped. You make about $0.66 /each after the stamp and perhaps another we cents for an envelope.

 

[im2smrt4u]

Much more clear. Now, if only we could get a clear answer on the usefullness of this. I hear many people say it does nothing, and some that say its the best...

 

[haktmal]

$2 for shipping? That's 34 cents for shipping in an envelope.

 

[Pepsei]

let me address again then, how useless they are!!!


rip off....

 

[amnesiac]

These have been proven time and time again to NOT WORK.
In fact, it's been shown to DECREASE reception in some cases.
Also you can find these in stores for like 99 cents.

This is a sticker w/ some metal stamped on it..it is a total scam and does nothing...they are still making money since its probally just sent 1st class mail and it costs them about 5 cents

 

[MrEnigma]

Yeah..they suck..supposed to be like adding a 5 foot antenna...it does absolutely nothing for the reception. Although I don't think it has hurt it either...I just wouldn't waste your money/time ordering one. Basically if it really worked this good don't you think cell phone manufacturers would have added them alredy? They aren't that stupid.

the only thing that would be good for would be to boost one's egay rating, provided you can get people to buy them and then give you a good rating, that would actually work quite nicely... otherwise, the work is WAY more than the $0.60 profit is worth!!

Folks:

I have been selling cellular phone accessories for 3+ years, and I can verify for you from personal (and customer) experience, that these things aren't even worth a penny. Don't waste your energy. Even if you ebay them, you'll just make enemies. I won't even put this crap on my website. I wouldnt even GIVE them away.

 

[mistashady]

dayam!!
i feel bad for the people who were tricked into getting those!!

yeah...i'd rather put power ranger sticker on my cell

 

[FrugalGuy]

hmm..interesting. My friend got one recently and swears by it. He would start to break up whenever he gets closer to his dad's house. Now I can hear him really clear since he got his antennae. Maybe it depends on the antennae brand and the type of the phone (nokia 8260). I was really thinking of getting one myself.

 

[psxQ]

i got one on my samsung with sprintpcs service and reception went up a notch when i'm in my home so i guess it works for some and don't work for others.

 

[dentalboy]

does these antennas really work?

 

[haktmal]

caricell,
i got this for free though. but does it decrease reception or not?

 

[caricell]

Haktmal:

I have yet to have ONE customer tell me that it improved their signal. I tried it on my own Nokia 8260, and it didn't do a damn thing. Personally, I like the Power Ranger sticker idea better...

 

[Tweakmeister]

Wouldn't a piece of tin foil work?

 

[merlocka]

Wouldn't a piece of tin foil work?

Well, a piece of tin foil would do exactly what these things do. Nothing good. Everyone, please save yourself the 2 bucks and your dignity.

 

[geckojohn]

I got one a couple weeks ago at Crap Usa's sale for about $5. I slapped it on my 8260 and it doesn't boost reception at all. It's garbage, don't waste your time or money getting one of these! Hope this helps.

from time to time, there always are such products come out for some people to make money.
