This seems to be going over like a lead balloon.

That bar just isn't moving is it.

This truly has to be the worst woot ever.

I truly feel sorry for anyone who buys this, they are getting ripped off.

Woot, please fire the buyer who got this, they do not deserve to be there. This is quite pathetic.

Really sad that a persian rug and a tupperware set will both sell out before this rip off.

Wow, I am really suprised these little diamonds have not sold out!!!!!!! Who buys this cr@p. You can buy these in a dollar bin at any hardware store. For $12 you can buy a 50 piece set at wally world.

The key is to buy three, which spreads shipping costs over multiple items. Also, some of us don't pay tax, although those days are eventually coming to an end given the bottomless fiscal hole the country is in. They'll never cut spending, just tax more. Mileage tax on your car, internet, etc. Technically, you're supposed to report all your internet untaxed purchases at tax time as it is, but hardly anyone does. It's coming, though.

what do they pay the guy that decides on what goes up? whatever it is it is way too much...

For the record, I report mine.

TY for sticking up for everything else, though. I'd be willing to be that at least some of our w00ters shop at Wal*Mart, so complaining about China is ridiculous.

If you're using google for any part of your internet browsing, that's your answer.

i would like to eat these with some bucky balls

in for 1

Yes, I'm a girl, but my husband taught me a lot about power tools. I don't think it's the "SOG" name in this case. They really are better, in my humble opinion.

Hey, if I want a girl's opinion I will give it to you. Back in the kitchen!!!

That may be true in general. I use Craftsman myself. so don't have much experience, but my father owns a SOG and seems to like it well enough.

The point I think needs to be made here is that these bits are not SOG tools. They are accessories that are mass-manufactured by some factory in China and then shipped out to SOG, Craftsman, Stanley, or whoever else needs them. Spending the extra money for SOG-branded screwdriver bits when you could get the exact same bits at your local dollar store? Well, it seems like a waste of money to me.

Well, I haven't been using Google for a while. I have, however, been a w00ter for quite a long time. It makes me wonder if...oh, I don't know...there could be some info selling? I was here before Amazon, so I'm just curious.

I laugh every time I see a car with an "Hungry? Eat your import!" or "UNION--do not display this on an import" bumper sticker on a vehicle parked in the Wally World lot. Barely anything in that store not made in China.

You are probably a 1%-er if you save receipts on internet purchases, tally it up at year's end, and report it. Not saying you're wrong, but I'd bet 1% or less of people do that. Heck, 90% of them are probably unaware they are supposed to.

AGREED!!!!

Since woot was bought by Amazon the price of stuff just keeps going up

If you are a Kardasian, better get 3. Cause you know that's one gaping hole to fill...

I guess we could buy the mini olive tree over on wine.woot then hang the bits off it like an industrial themed desk Christmas tree.

Fair enough. I've had mine for quite a while, so perhaps they're different. Still, I can't help but plug a good tool if I have one ;)

Not only is this a woot off killer, but this is not a good deal. After shipping, you're talking $12 for some drill bits? I'd suggest the local hardware store for any of you novice DIY'ers out there.

I can buy a multi tool for 5 bucks at the flea market. Is it an SOG multi tool...no is a piece of crap. The same thing goes for bits and the rest. Flea market crap is flea market crap. Assumming SOG sockets are same standard as tools this is a good price. Dont compare harbor freight to snapon. Quality really does matter when you are talking about tools

I do it. I've had enough stuff happen that I don't need an audit, too. Thank Goodness my husband had so many tools and taught me to use most of them before he passed

anonymoushero wrote:I wore out F5 for this?!

You're wearing out the server too. Use the wootalzyer. Gheesh.

Considering they don't say what metal is used in these and that they're for a hand tool... These are incredibly overpriced. Having gone through quite a bit of bits over the years I can safely say that you do generally get what you pay for in regards to wear and tear.

However, here I can safely say you're paying for branding more than anything, and before you counter with your own experience with them, do let us know whether you used them in a power tool. Most bits that sell for less than this can handle hand tools just fine; so these doing so as well is hardly an achievement in that circumstance.

These bits are going nowhere fast. Perfect time to go take a shower.

There is, however, a really funny story about how I ran into my own car while attempting to teach myself how to use one of our lawn tractors!

I see SOG . . and I buy. Simple as that. Probably fits one of the other SOG things I bought. My son will figure it out.

Why? Both were good items and priced well. I don't know what the heck this is so I'm not buying it for my husband or sons.

Whoa, just went from 90% to 60%. It should sell out before 5pm at this rate. I guess there's a demand for over-priced bits despite all the coal comments. Getting ready to start refreshing again, looking for that Bag of Coal.

Edit: 20% now!

There's been alot slower moving items then this. Watched pots never boil. Tune up your audio. There's only 20% left.

cue jeopardy theme...

Go, Mark! I have a daughter who is a computer genius. If she says "buy," then I immediately purchase. She hasn't said to buy a tablet yet, though...lol...but she did talk me into a smartphone. LOVE it!

Make sure you talk more people out of it. You're brilliant! Now it will go slower lol.

I leave the office and all the good stuff shows up. I come home and it's this... sigh!

1:30 minutes left to buy the best hex bits money can buy!

I think the bar was just broken because it just jumped a huge amount. Either that or the right people came along.

Well, the Lock 'n Locks on home.woot are actually amazing, if you're in the buying mood.

SOG? First time I used my SOG multi-tool, the screwdriver broke in half. It's made of pot metal. Junk. I'm sure the blade is fine though...
