PRESS RELEASE
BOFFER SUPPLY DEAL TO BOOST NEXT SELL-OFF
Discount e-tailer Boffer.co.uk has teamed-up
with CPM Asset Management to bring more exciting
products to its members.
CPM specialises in liquidating excess stock
on behalf of manufacturers, retailers, administrators
and distributors.
Boffer sells only one product a day, which
is sourced from bankrupt and excess stock,
at a bargain price. The offer goes live at
midnight and remains on the website till all
stock is sold or until 23.59 the following
evening. Products regularly sold on the popular
site include laptops, iPods, digital cameras
and LCD televisions.
CPM has already trialled several products
on Boffer on behalf of an unnamed high-street
retailer and has been blown away by the volume
of stock that the site has been able to sell
in the space of 24 hours.
Boffer creator Oli Shields told how the multi-million
pound supply agreement will allow them to
offer more than 700 brand-new high-street
products during its next sell-off on Sunday
February 15th.
He said: "We are extremely excited to
be working with CPM Asset Management. The
business has a wide range of clients that
will give us access to a significantly larger
product range and bring greater value to our
75,000 registered members.
"This agreement will also allow us to
provide a more extended range during our regular
sell-offs which include homeware, games, toys,
gardening equipment, DVD movies and sports
and electronic equipment."
CPM Asset Management managing director Alfi
Arif added: "Boffer is a fantastic website
that offers our clients the opportunity to
dispose of vast amounts of valuable excess
stocks quickly and effectively.
"We look forward to developing this partnership
which will bring more exciting product ranges
to Boffer's extended customer base."
Boffer is now the 1500th busiest in the UK
and receives 30,000 hits every night.
"Since its launch in September, Boffer
has captured the imagination of the online
consumers through its diverse product range
and knock-down bargain prices.
"We offer high-street products at a fraction
of the high-street price and people looking
for a better deal should make Boffer their
number one online shopping site."
Issued by Beattie Communications (www.beattiegroup.com)
on behalf of Boffer Limited.

Boffer Sell Off 11.59pm Sunday 19th Octobe
2008r.
Divorce,
Job losses and depression the masses decried.
No they weren't talking about the credit crunch
they were talking about how their world was turned
upside down by the Big Bad "Sell Off".
If
your sanity is still not being questioned thus
far you may just have more stamina than a big
brother viewer. Those lucky few of you will be
able to sing our praises from atop every bargain
forum with the purchase of a bag of crap, headphones
for a penny, or any of the other fine collection
of products in the "Sell Off".
Did
we mention already that there are but a few of
these gems? Slightly more than the brain cells
in your average game show host is the closest
we will
be pinned down on a figure of each but hey you
get our drift.
So
forget your family, Job, Car and anything else
of semi-importance just nowand join the great
and the good in the Big, Bad Bofferathon at 11.59pm
on Sunday 19th October
Q)
What is a boffer sell off ?
A/The
site will deviates from the one-product-per-day
model for a " Sell Off", where a succession
of products are available for a period of unannounced
length, usually 24-72 hours.
Q)
What is a Bag of crap?
A/The BOC is a "rare beastie" that occasionally
makes an appearance on our sister site Bigpockets.
Click
here to see its last appearance on Bigpockets.
It has occasionally been known to frequent
YouTube as well.

What a long strange month it's been . Boffer is
now just over a month old. Which in internet terms
means its celebrating its 18th birthday. Some of
you have exclaimed boffer is "WORST WEBSITE
EVER" Others decried the damage this exclusive
sales event AT 23.59PM does to their marriages or
jobs, while still others just shut up and bought.
If you've made it this far, you deserve a little
something. And we do mean a little something.
So what the hell it's our 18th birthday , we're
throwing a few THOUSAND units of a Brand new consumer
electronics product out there for a way-cool price.
The blessed few among you who are able to snare
one will soon be the envy of your friends. When
you tell them it has an MRP of £99.99 best
price on the net is £79.99 and you boffered
it for £29.99 : )
But do you know what would really blow their mind.
Wait till you tell them you got a discount code
on our new sponsor www.pricedevil.co.uk
which gave you a 50% discount so you paid £14.99
cool huh. Get registered on price devil; and boffer
before 11.59 on Friday 26th of September as that's
when we will be doing our best boffer yet.
Price devil will send you an email before the 26th
of September with your exclusive discount code.
