Act now they are going fast. This was posted yesterday.

http://www.minibuggy.net/forum/badland-buggy-group/15332-free-buggy-plans-offer.html

We want to thank MBN members & our followers on Facebook & Twitter by offering free buggy plans.

We've got a limited quantity of paper copies of Velociraptor, Sabretooth & ST2-NG buggy plans left over which we want to offer for free. You pay a flat fee for regular postal shipping, let's say $10 Canadian dollars via Paypal (North American customers) & $20 Canadian dollars via Paypal (International customers: outside Canada, USA & Mexico), and free buggy plans are yours.

Limit of one per customer/household. When they're all gone, offer expires.

Please specify buggy model: Velociraptor, Sabretooth & ST2-NG only. We have approx 40 sets of paper plans total left over in stock. We only offer digitial copies of plans through our website.

Interested? E-mail us at info@badlandbuggy.com

TERMS: Offer applies to "paper plans" only, not digital copies, while supplies last. All plans will be shipped via regular postal mail, so expect some delays as there is currently a rotating Canadian Postal Strike, mail is still being delivered. International postal mail may take up to 6-8 weeks. Most postal deliveries take a few days up to 2 weeks. You will get an e-mail confirmation when your free plans are shipped. Sorry, Canada Post does not offer tracking numbers for regular postal mail, however, this is the least expensive method to ship to you. Courier service will be offered (UPS) & quoted upon request. Courier service provides a tracking number & a specified delivery date.

Our e-mail inbox was stuffed this morning! Thanks everyone for contacting us. Pretty sure all of the ST2-NG paper plans are gone (or close to it) but we've still got Velociraptor & Sabretooth paper plans left for free. E-mail us (info@badlandbuggy.com) if you would like a complimentary set of these plans. Shelly from badlandbuggy.com will be contacting everyone today.

So you expect the person giving away free plans to send it to you for free? Interntional mail too?

So $10 to stuff a few sheets of paper into an envelope and ship it by banana boat. This wreaks of a scam, just like those "saw it on tv" gimmicks that charge you $19.95 + $9.95 s+h for some shammy cloth that doesnt even work as good as the kind you can get for $5 at the auto parts store. I'll keep my money, thanks. If it were truly free they would be available for download and I wouldnt have to wait 2 months to get them. :bannana:

But wait! Theres more!

Why would I pay $10 when it only cost 59 cents to mail a letter in Canada?

And yeah why not have a download for them?

So kart plans are just letter size now? Also he said they were hard copies not download? (download one for fee) How many pages do you think buggy plans are? A single letter? Did you see the pics above? It sure looks like a book binder plans to me. Or did you just happen to miss that? Was you buggy plans a few sheets of paper?


I guess free is not free. Badland buggy should pay shipping for your free plans right?

LOL a few sheets of paper. It's clear you missed the pics above as well friend. So read post 12.

He is not charging $19.95 plus shipping. He is charging shipping. So how can you compare the two? So you have badland buggy plans? How can you say they do not work if you never had one? Also where can you buy buggy plans for 3/4 less that what he he asking for shipping? Your post has zero merit friend. :roflol::bannana:

I am happy I got my plans on the way. Sorry you missed out friend. Though not everyone will be happy paying $10 to $20 for buggy plans.

Funny how some folks want free overnight shipping with free buggy plans. I see ebayers like this all the time. Funny. And as far as scams? If you stated that you have no clue about Badland buggies. Granted they are not members here. But they are stand up outfit.

Also they said they have digital copies for sale if you really want them. I wonder what those would cost though? They probably have this option for people that do not want to wait. Some will cry why are not PDF free? It's there property. They can do what they want with them. If you ask me. Bandlands just did a very cool thing for people looking for plans. I wish I never even posted this here now.

Free buggy plans
Free Overnight shipping
Free downloads as well.

Is this how you really see it? I offer free stuff on this site all the time. I hope I am not looked at as a scammer.

If you took time to read the thread Badland has given refunds for the over quoted shipping prices.

We mailed out the first batch of free plans today (Friday). Postage was less expensive, so we are issuing refunds for the difference in postage cost. Canadian customers will automatically receive a $7.00 refund, US customers will automatically receive a $2.00 refund, all via Paypal.

13 Sabretooth, 7 Velociraptor & 2 ST2-NG buggy plans remaining. Free, just cover postage. Canadian postage is $3.00, US postage is $8.00, International is $20.00.Thanks for all the e-mail's so far.



Yep scam, and there making to much money right? It should only cost 59 cents to ship. After all it's just a few sheets of paper.

My hats off to Bandlands. I will argue that till I get banned.

Thanks for the free plans Badland. Thanks for the refund as well.

I am pissed. I just got these plans for $8. I knew it was a scam. I should of listened to people in this thread.

I just got the plans to make this buggy for $8.



They charged me a total of $8 for the buggy plans and shipping. I thought that was kind of high but I did it anyway. This is what the plans booklet looked like. I thought it was going to be just a few sheets of paper stuffed into a lope. I never thought it would be a binder and the cost would be $8. But for some reason I am not happy. It could have been a better deal. Shipping should have been 59 cents. Pffff.t They even sent me back $2. They are so cheap they do not even offer free downloads.

Posting a link to download a PDF on your existing website. $0
Downloading from said link. $0
500 sheets of printer paper. $5
Exposure and positive PR to your company website for doing this. $? In profit

Total cost to end user <$1
Time invested: 5min if you have slow Internet and a slow printer.

If you have a POS laptop with adobe reader you don't even need to print them. Paper plans are a waste, stop living in the stone age.
