Link to old 2+2 100nl 200nl regs thread

So I decided to buy the ipod touch with my FT points instead of a plasma. I figured I would be able to sell the ipods and buy a 1080p plasma of my choice instead (rather than the 720p Panasonic relic they have). Then I found out about an inventory problem at the FT store, so I sent an e-mail and here's the deal...

Thank you for your email. The iPods are currently on backorder, however
we are expecting more shipments to arrive. We generally estimate 4 weeks
for delivery, however due to the iPods being backordered with our vendor,
delivery may take longer.

Let us know if we may be of further assistance.

Ouch, that sucks. Am I correct that each iPod sets you back $120.15 (.27 * 89000/200) in rakeback dollars? That's disgusting.

there are maybe 4 good FTP 5/10 regs.

and I run/play good vs all 3 of them [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

hey could someone teach me how to calculate how much rb will be taken out if i buy something in ftp store? like i understand on a basic level that it works out to around 27% of the item's true value, but i'd like the actual formula to calculate it.

what's the 200 part of your equation kos?

IIRC, each FTP point is worth half a cent, so in order to find out how much MGR you lose, you divide the cost (in points) by 200. Then, you are returned 27% of your MGR, so .27X / 200 (where X = the number of FTP points) should be your "cost" in rakeback.

(Someone confirm this, please.)

[nation]

what do you mean we're returned 27% of your MGR? wouldn't you be returned 73%?
