What's
Boffer.co.uk about?
To cut it short, Boffer is the best website ever. Most e-retailers are money grubbing evil tycoons who don’t really give a hoot about their customers’ wallets. Well, that’s where Boffer is different. We do care. (Although we do like money in our own pockets too. After all, shots of Aftershock don’t buy themselves!)
Basically, each night at 11:59PM we give you ONE amazing deal; this deal will last either until 11:59 the next night, or until it has sold out. If the deal has sold out, then it will say so, because we’re nice like that.
All you have to do in order to take us up on our Boffer-of-the-day is register free, and click Boffer Me when you see a product you like. You have to be quick though- when it’s gone, it’s gone. There’s no guarantee we’ll ever get the item back in stock again! If you don’t like being up until midnight, then get into World of Warcraft. Or The Sims 2. I guarantee you’ll be up until sparrow-fart (very early in the morning) playing those, and will never miss a Boffer! We sell pretty much anything, from iPod accessories to MP3 players to haphazard BOCs, so if you miss one expect your village to call claiming they’re missing their idiot. (Yes, that would be you) But we love you really!
Sometimes you’ll see a red beacon on Boffer, flashing like mad, and threatening to provoke a fit. Fear not! That represents that we’re having a Boffer Off, or Sell Off. This means that as soon as an item sells out, we replace it instantly. Check out the Forum for past Sell Offs! You can also chat about the products and their inevitable impressiveness! Everything we sell goes into the Blog, where you can read all the past descriptions and see the pretty pictures.
What else would you like to know about us? Ah, the infamous BOC (Bag of Crap). Sometimes we fill bags up with random stuff, and Boffer’ers upload videos of themselves opening their BOCs. You never know what you might get, and if you don’t like it, we don’t want any complaints! (Thus the fact that you can only email us- we’re very sensitive and don’t want to be shouted at)
Now, you’re probably still wondering who we are, aren’t you? Well, there’s our fabulous founder; Oli Shields. Without him, Boffer would not be, and we would still be spending our days staring blankly into our refrigerators due to our lack of mind-boggling products to buy. You can read about the rest of the team here, and then send them long letters to tell them how wonderful they are. They would like that…a lot.
Well, that’s about the whole nine yards of it. You don’t have to be Sherlock Holmes to figure it all out. But just in case you’re still confused, here’s a guide to buying things on Boffer.
1. Register free/ log in
2. Grab a mug of Hot Lava Java coffee, and sit by your computer until 11:59PM
3. As soon as the new Boffer is live, and if you like the product, click Boffer Me
4. If you don’t like the product, click Boffer Me anyway and give it to someone else
5. If you still don’t like the product, refer to rule number four
6. Go onto the Forum, and say something fabulous about said product
7. Join our Facebook group, and get all your friends to do the same
