Titan X Haribo vs Random Peripheral Extras (and suggestion)

africanos23 · 22 Apr 2015 at 11:32

OK so here is the story.

I ordered a Titan X a month ago and received it promptly with 1 small bag of haribo.

I ordered a few accessories fans/filters/headset etc on Saturday and received them this morning (I'm in Cyprus btw) but the bag this time contained 2 small bags of haribo.

The Titan X was ~900 while the second order was around ~250.

Is there a specific reason why with a more expensive product I received only 1 bag ?

And also as I'm watching my weight (training and no sugar/salt diet etc) could we have an option of choosing between haribo or a quaker bar ?

Thank you
Nikolas

Yeah, when I ordered 2x 290x at the beginning of last year when they were about £440 each and I had one bag of Haribo. I also ordered a 295x2 and had no Haribo

but when I ordered a Startech miniDP adapter that was about £28 or something I had 2 bags of Haribo.

Pot luck, I've had £500+ orders come with nothing and sub £100 orders come with 5+ bags

The day I get no Haribos with an order is the day I'll stop shopping here.

I got no Haribo once and questioned the futility of it all.

Thankfully the side-order of PSU was delivered so, in time, the scars will heal.

It is all down to the Haribo lottery I am afraid.

I order for the haribo, not the £~900 GPU.

In all seriousness i did get upset when my rog swift was delivered without any haribo, when ordering a headset a bag came with it

You get some or you don't. Just learn to live with it.

If you can't then have a moan in here.

I have always got Haribos but I'm on a no fat diet and working out.

Quaker bars would be a good option IMO.

Quaker bars will not help my "I'm a computer geek playing games on my E-peen inducing mega machine image" though will it. On second thoughts, maybe your right...

PCM2 · 22 Apr 2015 at 16:35

Are you aware that most Quaker Oat So Simple bars have roughly the same amount of sugar in as a small Haribo bag and far more calories?

Rumour has it that you get a protein bar when you order a system by 8Pack :cool:

savagesam117 · 22 Apr 2015 at 17:07

I've spent £1500+ on mine and my brothers computers and have never received a bag.. Doesn't bother me, i can't stand them!

LambChop · 22 Apr 2015 at 17:30

I got a pack of haribo in with my mod mic order, yum
