We're hoping to get this taken care of with the slow week this week, and tie up those loose ends before the new year. I'm still lost on how we screwed you out of money -- you made yourself a Halloween costume!

Great costume though, look forward to seeing the contest results!, Yeah I’m going to have to agree with Ryan on this one, Engadget really didn’t really force you to spend this money.

By his logic, a large tech site should have enough staff and resources to follow through when they post a contest, and I personally agree with him.

I don't hold them responsible for me spending money on a costume, nor do I want the money back. I just wanted to make people aware about my frustrations with the contest. I'm not a hostile person and I still love Engadget so don't judge this article entirely on it's title.
