nah its $6 for 1 bag with usually a few items in it. It's a gamble but they do sometimes have good stuff.

ahh F it. Pick one up for $6.53. Was pretty piss I didn't get in on the woot crap brag. Will take my chances here. I better get something that cost more than $6.53. lol

I just ordered one. total of $6

I'm expecting a tshirt and a screw driver P

I have gotten two of these. The first time I scored a crappy chinese made all in one nintendo system that suposedly had about 7000 games but in reality had about 30 and then repeated them 7000 times. It was cool for like 2 hours to play all these retro nintendo games but the controller was awful and ended up breaking a little while into use, still cant beat that 2 hours for 6 bucks. Last time i got a mini optical mouse with a retractable cable that I carry with me in my tool kit along with some other retractable usb cables i threw out. Totally worth it IMO

This should help clear up some stuff for ya-



[quote4b56bf39f6]What is Woot and who's behind it?

Woot.com is an online store and community that focuses on selling cool stuff cheap. It started as an employee-store slash market-testing type of place for an electronics distributor, but it's taken on a life of its own. We anticipate profitability by 2043 – by then we should be retired; someone smarter might take over and jack up the prices. Until then, we're still the lovable scamps we've always been. But don't take our word for it see what the online community has to say at this Wikipedia article.


I see only one item, do you sell anything else?
No. We sell one item per day until it is sold out or until 1159pm central time when it is replaced (see next entry for details). However, each item we sell is in stock and typically ships within 2-3 business days.


What is the schedule for new items?
The short answer we offer a new item every single day. The details a new product is released every morning at 12am central time, seven days a week. (If you're not a morning person, this can be described as every night at midnight. Better?) If a product sells out during its run, a new item will not appear until the next release time. You will know if a product is sold out, because the main page says "SOLD OUT" instead of "I want one". (Clever, eh?)


I missed yesterday's item, can I still get one?
No. Each woot.com product is discontinued at 1159pm central time. That's that. Period. We may get more at a later date if we're lucky, but we offer no guarantees, we allow no backorders, and we have no waiting/notification lists. Too bad.[/quote4b56bf39f6]

midnightbox is basically the same

So its just something totally random. Some days there good some are bad right? Thats actually pretty cool I bet they profit a lot off of that. What are some cool things and bad things people have gotten?

Here check out thses forums- http//www.woot.com/Forums/ShowSaleForum.aspx

I did the mystery box last time. I got a USB light for a laptop, and a USB retractable extension. Not bad I guess for 6 bucks. My roomy got a laptop mouse, and a USB charger for his phone.

lol, I wonder why it did that... Must have been cause I was chewing double mint gum

Finally I got my first Midnight Mystery Box. I read about them on here but usually don't have enough in my debit account or paypal for the, but this time I did. I don't really care what it is as its only $6...but it would be kind of kool to get something I can use...or at least use parts from(electronics)

Sounds like Axshop stuff in general. They must make a killing.

Hmm, there's a 99 cent shop nearby....maybe I should start a site? ;)

hhaha, yea that is real wierd

got my items today.
