Well, look what we have here !!
Not one, not two.. but THREE brand new, boxed BeoSound 8's have been purchased for the BeoWorld Prize Draw 'reserve'
I've now laid them in a temperature controlled room at a slight angle, ready for opening during the course of the next 12 months by some lucky BeoWorld Winners!
Just thought i'd share my excitement. Sorry

Re: Well, look what we have here !!
It's all down to our Gold Members. Their membership money goes into the bank and after our regular running costs have been paid the remainder of that money is spent on Prizes - every penny of it.

Cooll!!!
Isn't it a little excessive though - I wouldn't know what to do with the other two!

Re: Well, look what we have here !!
Are these prize drawings open to overseas gold members? Has anyone from the US won? Recalling off-hand, it seems that most past winners have been in the UK, with some on the continent.

It's luck of the draw. Literally.
Many prizes go to all over the globe.
December prizes went to these lucky people:
December Prize Draw Winners
1st Mr L. Ernst
- Munich, Germany
2nd Mr P. Curry - Newtown, NSW,
Australia 3rd Mr P. Robin - London, UK 4th
Mr P. Marter - Alicante, Spain 5th Mr M. Siffre
- Charente, France 6th Mr L. Hockersten -
Gothenburg, Sweden 7th Mr S. M. Forsgren - Sjovegan,
Norway 8th Mr R. Harberg - Steinkjer, Norway 9th
Mr K. Libens - Limburg, Belgium 10th Mr S. Numminen
- Rauma, Finland
And if you look through the winners within the links HERE you'll see that there's not that many UK winners. The US has won a few larger prizes in the past but there's not really that many US gold members compared to Scandinavians and the rest of Europe. However, you'd have as much chance of winning as me (already a 1st prize winner) or anyone else around the world.
If you think nobody cares, try missing a couple of payments.

Re: Well, look what we have here !!
You beat me to it Stonk.
Compared to the rest of the world, the amount of Gold Members based in the USA is small - so naturally not as many US winners will pop up. However, again as mentioned, each member has an equal chance of winning in every draw. In fact, it's happened where a member has won TWO prizes in one draw!!

I was told yes, but if not - i'd either supply a power converter or buy a brand new US spec model.
