So basically my GoPro 1 fell of the mount while I was paintballing. I emailed them and they said they can offer me a 50% of discount on a new GoPro and a free mount of my choice. I was just wondering if someone could send me the email they used to purchase there GoPro 2 FROM THE GOPRO ONLINE STORE, I have mine but it says that I bought a GoPro 1 and I was looking to get a 2. The reason I need a email is so they can confirm the original purchase of the lost one. All I need is the Email no password, and it would really help me out.

You've just given me an idea to e-mail Oakley asking for a new pair of sunglasses because I lost mine. Time to think of a story.

If he sends them an email with proof of purchase of a gopro hero 2 he will get if half off. He owns a gopro one and is basically found a good way to cheat the system.

Yup thats me, and as for picking it up. It was in a game and I didn't realize it was off until the end, when I looked I couldn't find it and I looked for probably 10 hours seriously.

This is what I wrote to them:


Hey there, so here's the story. I bought a brand new pair of Oakley Holbrook's from an Oakley Vault store in Calgary. I had them for about a month, and one day when I was at the skatepark they got stolen from my backback. I was pretty mad, and no I don't have any sunglasses. I set my bag down to go skateboard for a bit, and it was kinda cloudy so I didn't need them then, and I went to get water out of my bag, and I checked the pocket where I left my sunglasses to see if they were still there and they weren't. I asked the guys sitting next to my bag if they seen anything happen, and they said they saw a guy come up, open up the pocket and take them out. I asked if he was still there but he wasn't. So I was wondering if you guys would be nice enough to send me a free pair? Or at least a generous discount on a new pair? It'd be greatly appreciated and I'd be a customer for life. I love my two pairs of Oakley goggles I wear skiing, and I loved my sunglasses even more. If you can that'd be sick. Thanks.

YOU NEED MORE IMAGERY MAN. Make the reader feel as if they are present at the robbery. I'll even help you out! "It was about 3 pm in the afternoon, the clouds casted a dark haze on the gray smooth concrete pavement of the Calgary skatepark. Heads and fluorescent colors were zooming past me as I went to set my dark blue backpack on that rusty steel fence." See something like that man come on now.

This. That's like saying "I tried to claim insurance money for my car, but my car's fine... so I took a picture of my buddy's totalled car and sent it to them instead. It's not a scam bro, my car just wasn't totalled."

I logged in for the first time just in a few months just because you piss me off for some reason. You look like your just graduating middle school stop hiding from it. You also just happened to be at the top of my list of messages ironically, with that said no I will not sell you my 4xl red ignant that you just asked to buy. Have a good day.

k the sunglasses one was a stupid comparison because you admit to them being stolen but the gopro mount failed, which totally warrants a discount or refund or whatever.

Well, if that's how we are going to be.

*because, a cause is something that gives rise to an action. You also forgot to capitalize the first "word" of your sentence.

"Haha stupid fucking idiot." is not a sentence, nor is "Dumb cunt."

you forgot a comma after "lol nope"

Also, there is no way you are a day over 14

Im just looking for some sympathy in the form of a discount. It never hurts to ask, worst thing they'll say is no. And then I am right back where I started before I asked.

I really don't get why kids are obsessed with taking pictures of themselves in the mirror. Are you that in love with yourself?

His body looks like mine... when I was 11 years old.
