Flip This Wholesaler

Hola guys and gals- hope you all had a fantastic weekend!!

I spent mine celebrating my 2nd place win in the 2010 Battle of the REI Blogs- WOOOOOHOOOO!

Thanks again to all of you who participated in the Battle this year- your support really means a lot to me!

Congrats to all the bloggers who participated in the Battle this year, and thanks again to all of you guys who voted for me- I obviously couldn’t have made it to second place without your help!  You guys rock!!  Also, thanks to Sgt. P-Rid for putting the whole thing together!

Have a great week everybody!

Over and out.

Hey guys and gals!

I just wanted to post a quick update about the 2010 Battle of the REI Blogs that has been going on since Monday…

First of all- to those of you who have already voted for me THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! I’ve been reading through all of the votes over there each day and I sincerely appreciate you guys taking the time out to support me! (If you haven’t voted yet, you can do so by clicking here, scrolling to the bottom of the page, and then typing in your vote as a comment!)

As of 7:41 am this morning, I am in 3rd place with 104 votes, but JP Moses (94 votes) and Craig Fuhr (69 votes), are slowly chipping away at my lead. Julie Broad (last year’s champion) is in 2nd place with 125 votes, and Ron Meade is currently in the lead with 154.

There’s been all kinds of trash-talking taking place over on Facebook, including this disturbing video that JP Moses put together yesterday making fun of me and Craig Fuhr…..(Warning: may not be suitable to watch if you’re at work).

Along with that, JP, told Julie Broad that if she wins again this year, he’s going to shave my head and then tape my hair onto Patrick Riddle’s face so “he looks at least 15…”

Julie Broad, apparently thinks she has this contest in the bag, and posted the following picture shortly after JP made the threat….

Definitely not a good look for me. Or Patrick. (That’s JP in the background eating a bacon donut, btw).

So anyway….the voting is open until midnight tonight, and I plan on Battling it out until the very end!

It would mean the world to me if you would take a few seconds and show me your support by casting your vote over on the Battle Site!

All you have to do is click this link, then scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page and leave a comment saying who you are voting for (Steph)!!!!

Thanks again to all of you who have already cast your vote- you guys rock!!!

Have a great day everybody!!

Over and out.

P.S.
Click here to Vote for Steph!

P.P.S.
Aside from bragging rights (I LOVE me some bragging rights) the winning blogger gets to award five of their voters one of Patrick Riddle’s Private Money Blueprint home study courses! (Valued at $997 each!)

P.P.P.S.
Vote For Steph!

Greetings guys and gals!

I hope everyone has been well since I last posted back in 1920.

I’ve been on somewhat of a hiatus from wholesaling/blogging/social media, which is kind of a nice thing to do every once in awhile.

I took some pictures of my little vacay for your viewing pleasure….

Feeding seagulls at the beach and pissing people off.

Sunset on Clearwater Beach

Sunrise on my balcony

Owl ring that I fell in love with and then won at a charity raffle. Hooooo Hooooo.

Hot sauce that I also won at the raffle. (Note the warning label)

Chef Steph attempting to make salsa.

The finished product, which was so hot I thought I was going to die but I ate it anyway because I love me some spicy food. (Note: Hint of Jalepeno Tostidos = AWESOME).

So anyway, that’s what I’ve been up to since you last heard from me: hanging out at the beach, winning stuff, and burning the crap out of my mouth.

Good times.

I also have a new Reader Mail video for you to watch.  This time around I’m answering Derrick’s question about finding buyers using bandit signs….

If you have any questions about the video, leave them below and I’ll be happy to answer them for ya!

Oh, and one more thing….

The Battle of the REI Blogs is kicking off today at noon, and it would be really awesome if you could take a few seconds out of your day to head over and vote for me! Last year I came in third place, and this year I’d love to steal the title away from last year’s champ- Julie Broad!

I’m up against some tough competition this year, so I need every vote I can get!

Also, if you vote, you’ll have a chance to win one of the 7 Private Money Blueprint courses that Patrick is giving away!

To learn more about the contest and to place your vote, go here! Just scroll to the very bottom of the page and leave a comment saying who you are voting for (Me!). It only takes a second!!

Thanks guys- have a great week!

P.S.
Jim says…..VOTE FOR STEPH!!!

Well, Guys, the results are in, and I ended up finishing in 3rd place in the Battle of the REI Blogs Contest- woohoo!

I just wanted to write a quick post to say THANK YOU to all of you who voted!

I read through each of the 127 comments that you left for me, and want you all to know how much I appreciate you showing up and supporting me….you guys ROCK!

Anywho, just wanted to pop in and say thanks, and wish you all a safe and happy Halloween weekend…

Later Alligators….

P.S.
Hope to see you on the Flip or Treat call that I’m doing with JP tomorrow!

P.P.S
Congratulations to Julie, Dave, and Bram over at RevNYou!

P.P.P.S.
I’m considering dressing up as a hot dog tomorrow and wearing a sign around my neck that says, “Happy Halloweenie!”   Hehehe.

Well, I had quite the day out in the Battlefield today…

Thanks to you guys, I was able to knock JP out of third place!  I can’t do too much trash-talking just yet though, as there are still two hours to go before the polls close.

The last tally of votes was done at 3:21 pm, and this is how it looked…

1st Place – Julie Broad with 225 votes

2nd Place – Ron Mead with 208

3rd Place – ME!!!!!!! with 114 (Woot!)

4th Place – Susan Lassiter-Lyons with 96

5th Place – JP Moses with 91

6th Place – P-Rid with 68

7th Place – Trevor Mauch 39

Patrick is out celebrating his Birthday tonight (Happy B-Day P-Rid!), so he’s not going to be announcing the winner until 2pm tomorrow.

If you guys haven’t cast your vote yet, pretty please head over to the contest page and vote for me!!  There’s still a little bit of time left, and every vote counts!

Thank a billion to all of you who have voted for me already- it really means a lot to have your support.  You guys ROCK!

Later Alligators!

P.S.
Jim asked me to post this picture for him- he’s kind of competitive, and thought this might get me a few more votes..(he made the shirt himself, btw).

P.P.S.
JP just sent me a message and told me he’s giving up and wants all of his votes to go to me.  He couldn’t take the pressure of the competition, apparently..

P.P.P.S.
Speaking of JP…..if you guys haven’t heard about the Flip or Treat call that JP and I are doing this Saturday (Halloween), click here to learn more! It’s going to be Spooktacular! Hehe. Hope to see you all there…
