The internet conditioned me to ignore such claims as too-good-to-be-true. I would expect loads of people to treat it like "you're the 1000000th visitor! you won!" and other "free stuff here (if you register and fill out hundreds of forms)" offers.

Na, it was a very personal blog and the owner does things like that all the time. The name of the jeweler was disclosed and everything. I get what you're saying though, but it was legit.
