Tell us your Treasure Hunting story

[alexiab@ebay.com]

Treasure Hunting fever has struck the nation! Well, nearly 😉

Do you have a story you would like to share about your Treasure Hunting?

We are putting together some snippets for our main treasure hunting page here: http://pages.ebay.co.uk/treasurehunt/ and would love to hear from you!

This thread will need to keep on topic, so if you want to chat with other hunters, please use the rest of the forum, your posts will be removed if they are off topic.

Thanks!

Alexia

Well- its the last day and I've only joined in the hunt lately.

reading your messages confirms to me that I am not the only one who's mad, bad and hooked on the treasure hunt.

I have similar stories to many of you- I didn't win LOL But the humour and good will on here is a delight to hold.

I need it my family have given up on me- look at me in the funny way (am I mad or what|????) Ugh??? what do you mean crystal??? what are you talking about?

Gotta get out of here mum!!!!!!!!!

Husband not talking to me- trying to distract me with the sales, TV- anything- its quite funny really LOL

Anyway- I have enjoyed the short time I have been hunting- hope I've found loads of things I never knew existed LOL!!!

Hope there is another hunt soon.

Nuther winner here I'm afraid sweetie. And the only connection I have with ebay is in the form of buyer.

A hearty congratulations to the winner of the mini by the way.

This treasure hunt has been a blast. I just wish I had got involved sooner than I did.

Have a great 2005 all!!

Z:)

Great Fun!
Started at the beginning, finished at the end. Have had correct answers and wrong timing, have had correct timing and bizarrely incorrect answers. Haven't won anything, but not feeling sorry about that (let's face it, I didn't really NEED any of the prizes).

My forum history:
Three user-ids.
Posted no complaints.
Offended no-one on the forum.
Not been offended by anyone on the forum.
Got help from forum members.
Been hugely entertained by the whole thing and, most importantly, had a bloody good laugh.

Thanks to ebay and all forum folks.

Story, its an epic.

I didnt win.

Was close hundreds of times ! (OK,so maybe 3-4 times).

House a tip. need to clean up and do some ironing.(so what if the kids have spent the last three days in their PJ's)

Need to think of a mega good excuse why my University assignments are not done yet(nope Henry, your last suggestion of " I was busy excerising the grey cells on EBay" didnt work last time so sure isnt gonna work this time).

But on the plus side, I ahve spent less moeny. Have been too busy searching to buy things

And best of all,had some great fun and laughs with some great people.

Lets do it all again soon!!

Treasure Hunt has been great fun - frustrating at times.

I got really close only once on the Ford Anglia prize.

Highly addictive and good fun!!

Good Bits:

Good for lateral thinking skills
Reading some of the forum postings
Some of the entertaining listings found along the way
Good Prizes

Not so Good Bits:

Hints stayed up on the site when prizes had already been won. (Todays hint is still up even though the Mini Cooper has been one)

Release times should have been clearer on the home page of the site.

Until next year then.......

its been great fun..mostly
i've got withdrawal symptoms now, and seeing a listing without a pic,BIN, has become a habit,i jus have to click on it!!!! hahaha

We dont really have to wait til next Christmas for another treasure hunt / game, do we?
Thanks Elves for adding fun to so many peoples' otherwise - maybe - boring Christmas [including mine]and the laughs on the Treasure Hunt boards.I miss it already
