300/mo. is just plane insanity and greed and anything more than 5/mo. rip off

especially considering you can make your own line service

jjgold · 08-19-11, 07:00 AM

Market not like it use to be
For line paid services.

Bad economy and Many free options has hurt it.

Yes in today's world line services are very overpriced.

299.00 a Month?

Thats a car payment.No thanks.

Bluehorseshoe · 08-19-11, 08:47 AM

It's actually $350 now.

Here's the thing. If you know how to use it, then it's worth it. If $350 is going to make you $5,000, it's a no brainer.

Hey All,

I'm the first to say that a line service is not for everybody. That's why we give a 7 day free trial and 30 money back guarantee - we're not looking to trick people into using a service they don't like or need. Heck, we don't even do the recurring billing trick that so many sites use.

And for many players, our Standard ($99/m) service is all they need. You get almost all of the same info as the Pro service, just slightly delayed. And during football you get a ton of info with Steam, Computer and System plays and this year we have added our own analysis to all NCAAF games.

We are releasing our Mobile version for the iPad and iPhone on Sept 1. It will be included with a Pro subscription at no cost and will be a small up-charge to add it to your Standard subscription. It will also be available a stand-alone product.

Thanks
Rick

If you are serious about betting, treat the monthly service just like a business expense. treat your betting like a business.

Like slick says

Serious bettors need one

Sports Options is definitely the better service as far as up to date info provided...but as a serious sports bettor I still cant get over that fact its,..300 BUCKS a MONTH!! all the info they provide can be found at numerous places online,..but it just makes things convenient having everything on one site..but DAMN!! 300 BUCKS!

Example:
30 days in a month...1-3 plays a day..minimum $100 ea. play.= 300-500 plays a month..
With me already trying to get a clip of at least 51% to make that 1% and not lose your vig...
this is very hard..
So,..Minus this fee of $300..You would have to win at least 54%-56% of your picks, for this to pay off.
now... anything from 55%-65% clip would of course be a professional spending countless hours
researching and gathering info/stats...
but of course...I work for a living...I cant spend THAT much time doing all this research and shit,..so this $300 bucks seems kinda costly..Just my thoughts..hope SportsOptions reads this and lowers there monthly fee..

What's the limit of 3 about? Does that mean you can order it a max of 3 times per month (not sure why anyone would want to unless they are giving it a way) or does it mean once you buy 3 different months then the option is no longer available?

Sunde91 · 08-19-11, 04:27 PM

I don't even see a SBR rating for you

didn't Rx recently drop you as a sponsor? you know your book is shit when Rx, who has sportsbook.com, drops you

Bill Dozer · 08-19-11, 04:28 PM

RIght, you can get a quarter free using SBRpoints. If you want more than that you can email the store and we'll set it up at higher but fair price.

Thanks. I was going to order it but can't find my account # and after looking on the site for 10 minutes I can't find an option to retrieve my account # via a "lost email or password" link like most sites have. I found live chat but an operator never responded. I found a contact email but last time I emailed Rick it took 3 days for a response. User-unfriendly sites like that really get under my skin. Forget it, i'll pass.

SportsOptions isn't a sportsbook, genius, as should be clear from every post in the thread.

jjgold · 08-20-11, 12:40 AM

I have been telling Ricky fir 3 years to lower his prices

The delayed service should be like $20 a month

They should actually be paying you to use it if it's delayed.

Scorpion · 08-20-11, 06:00 PM

Rick, do you have matchbooks 1st and 2nd half lines for mlb, football, and basketball on sports options?

Scorpion · 08-20-11, 06:04 PM

Do you offer SBR posters a special discount for your standard version?

Inkwell77 · 07-14-12, 01:40 AM

Beantownjim killin it in here.

JJ need to know the story where you were going to get sued!

BEANTOWNJIM · 07-14-12, 05:10 AM

BOYS THE BOTTOM LINE IS YOUR PAYING 300 DOLLARS TO GET SHUT OFF AT EVERY MAJOR OFFSHORE SPORTSBOOK

SPORTSOPTION MIGHT BE A GOOD SERVICE IF RICK WAS ONLY SELLING HIS SERVICE TO PLAYERS BUT THIS GREEDY BASTARDS BIGGEST CUSTOMERS ARE THE VERY SPORTSBOOKS YOUR TRYING TO BEAT

THINK ABOUT THIS BOYS HIS SERVICE IS SOLD TO SPORTSBOOKS THEY SEE YOU BETTING STEAM AND LINE MOVES ON EVERY GAME THEY GET RID OF YOU SO FAST AND THAT WILL LEAVE YOU WITH YOUR SPORTS OPTION LINE SERVICE BUT NO WHERE TO PLAY OR LIMITS CUT

LINE MOVES ARE FOR SUCKERS I CANT TELL YOU HOW MANY TIMES I THOUGHT I WAS ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF A LINE MOVE AND GOT BURRIED

I WOULD NEVER BUY A LINE SERVICE THAT IS BEING SOLD TO THE SAME SPORTSBOOKS WHERE YOUR PLAYING

THE SPORTSBOOK WILL MOVE THE LINES BEFORE YOU GET THE CHANGE THEN SHUT YOU OFF FOR BEING A WISE ASS

BEANTOWNJIM · 07-14-12, 05:13 AM

HOW MANY TOUTS WILL CALL YOU IF YOU USE THIS SERVICE FOR THE FREE WEEK TRIAL.

YOUR E-MAIL WILL GO OUT TO EVERY TOUT IN THE COUNTRY I MADE THIS MISTAKE AT COVERS FORUM I HAD TOUTS E-MAILING ME 20 TIMES A DAY IT WAS HELL GETTING MY NAME AWAY FROM THESE TOUTS.

SIGN UP FOR THE FREE TRIAL AND WATCH HOW MANY TOUTS ARE TRYING TO CONTACT YOU
