I emailed looking for my tracking info for my lights they forgot to send with my cr@p. They emailed it back and my lights will be here Sat.

Sweet!!!

If anyone is interested in a Motorola S9 Bluetooth Stereo Headset from my Woot! Lights purchase, please send me a PM.

Thanks!

R+L came by today with my pallet but he didn't have a freaking lift gate! They are coming back today sometime, pictures to follow. I didn't get a look at the package but the driver thinks it's an arcade machine.

Edit: Oh and I think he quoted it at 320 lbs.

What kind of sick joke is that. Show up and not get to even see the goods. I would be going crazy

is this real? i would have at least asked to see it! and would they really try to deliver without a lift gate? seems a little fishy.. is someone having pallet-envy? ha ha

...and we're happy to get our 3rd Roomba! just in time to replace Roomba #2!

Recieved lights but nothing else, do all orders get the scaffolding bag, or is it random?

... Your order number had to end in a 1. Read before you buy.

Alrighty folks, the pallet came...


320 lbs



Midway Arcade Machine



Japanese Slot Machine



32" SOVA television w/ broken coax input
edit: fixed



Heavily damaged microwave, apparently because of "Joey"
(A bit scared to test!)



3 Outdoor patio lamps, a couple broken glass panes



Nice Hamilton Beach Iron

Also, a giant white tarp!
Thats all folks!

Thanks Woot!

It does sound odd, but in my experience, large pallet trucks are used to delivering stuff to loading docks and often do not have a lift gate.

Ever try to unload 800+lb fully loaded rackmount set of computers?

It wasn't pretty...

I did but I emailed Woot! and they shipped it out and upgraded shipping, so give them a holler.

I'm guessing Joey is the kangaroo who kicked the holy hell out of your microwave. Congratulations on your haul!

That haul of pallet porportions is amazing! I gotta say, however, I hope I never get a shipment like that. Living in a very small apartment on the 6th floor, there's no way on earth I'd be able to deal with that kind of shipment.

Sansa trivia 101: Grandma learns how to fix a MP3 player! ( aka: just jiggle the handle )

Re: my initial post of our ( actually hubby’s ) Boggy Old Creature w/2 non-working Sansas in it - both arrived and would only light up the blue ring ( of death ) – computer wouldn’t acknowledge them at all when plugged in, and neither would the Sansa program. Being more than somewhat programming illiterate, I read thru all the instructions on how to try to “unbrick” them with some degree of growing horror. Luckily for me, before I tried all that, I discovered this – which I am posting here in sincere hopes that it may also benefit someone else that got the same type of nonfunctional Sansa in their Guppy – is that the only thing wrong with BOTH of them was that the “chip” inside was NOT plugged into the “circuit board”. I discovered this when I had the first one apart and it almost fell off – I clicked it ( gently ) onto it’s corresponding pins, put the player back together, and it works like a charm…….so I checked the other one, and it had exactly the same problem. Probably not what’s wrong with all of them that aren’t working – but it sure seems like it’s worth a try before delving into the realm of firmware tweaking for those whom, like me, really aren’t at all familiar with that stuff.

So – good news is that now both are working perfectly and, between the two of them, we got over 800 songs courtesy of somebody out there with REALLY GREAT taste in music! Kind of makes it like getting a whole new Boggy Old Creature you didn’t see the first time you opened the box.

And so that gives our first ever Boggy Old Creature story a new, happy ending - Thanks again, WOOT !

Where's the bucket count info!??!

I took it apart and found the Battery part number, 326691 3.7v 730 mAh.

Any internet sites?

Charged using A/C adapter until full charge. Unplugged and battery indicator was about dead. Pluged into computer and read battery status and said 100%. So I been running the radio for 2.5 hours and still going.

Battery seems ok, must be firmware issue.

Still working View.... cool

got my Boggy Old Creature a few weeks back(a kodak all in one printer! thanks WOOT!) but no woot lites,. i emailed WOOT and they said they would send them out... low and behold fed ex just came by and POOF! I got me some woot lites, and 2 bags of Texas air!!! Lites work great! slight hum which is very relaxing. but how do people not see the switches on the front? Cant wait for the next WOOT OFF!

1 in my order but all the FEDEX site is saying is that they have received the order information and it was supposed to be shipped July 15.. it has yet to move or go anywhere. woot says they are taking care of it, so here's hoping!

Chris

Awesome haul, fantastic, Stupendous, mindbogglingly lucky. Enjoy!!!

Although I am feeling depressed, having not scored and seeing all this goodies i can only drool and worry that there wont be any goodies left for the next one,and even then i still may not score a bag. Whhaaaaaaaaaa

I wouldn't have it any other way than frizzy...

But thanks for the tip.

After emailing service@woot.com, I received my Woot-Off lights. They work perfectly. Thank you Woot!

I'm checking now about the safe disposal of the two bags of Texas Air. I'm in Louisiana and am hoping there is a reciprocal agreement.

Has anyone seen a Boggy Old Creature that looked this bad when it arrived? (nevermind the miserable plant in the background)



It has clearly been ripped open after it was sealed up. And the contents were scattered throughout the box like it had been rummaged through. There were four pieces of scotch tape holding the flaps down and two stickers from the USPS that say it was received in damaged condition.

At any rate, what was left the contents was... well cra ppy.

2 x Woot-off lights
8 x Wine Woot bags
17 x multi-tool torch sets
2 x Lowpro Camera Bags
2 x Nextar heart shaped picture key chains, one was opened, out of its box and the contents were scattered throughout the shipping box. The box for the open keychain was on the bottom of the box while the key chain device was found on toward the top.
2 x 3 DVD sets, Superbad, Blades of Glory, and Team America
1 x Film boat-shaped speaker system
1 x Deni possible Ice Cream Maker?? - no lid, no instructions

There was also some scattered bubblewrap in the box, it was not wrapped around or apparently protecting anything.
And there is a 3"x8"x12" piece of cardboard that appears to be the insert of a larger box that holds contents of some sort in place.

I'd say you did just fine, a decent haul.

My order is still touring the Southwest...

I'd agree, if it weren't so obvious that someone helped themselves to whatever they wanted out of my b ox of carp.
Pity party, table for one, please

hazytrader wrote:My order is still touring the Southwest...

Mine went on a sight seeing tour as well, but of the midwest... none of the tracking functions have the complete map, only the most recent segment, which resemebled a cover band tour of podunk Ohio towns.

hazytrader wrote:My order is still touring the Southwest...

Try using something like PackageMapping. It makes the paths on the map for you. Except the site's interface is a bit ugly.

ThreeDee912 wrote:Try using something like PackageMapping. It makes the paths on the map for you. Except the site is a bit ugly.

Oh I have, they have the same issue, only shows the last 4-5 segments out of 8-10.

kavaea wrote:Oh I have, they have the same issue, only shows the last 4-5 segments out of 8-10.

Ohh, huh. That's weird.

Anyway, I think SmartPost works by putting your package on any plane/truck that has room left over that is somewhat moving in your direction. Then it gets handed it off to the USPS when it's near your town. I dunno why your package is traveling all over the southwest, though.

BTW: Is "B" under "D" or something? I don't see it on the map.

Emailed Woot! on Tuesday about not getting my lights, got them today, and they work too! Thanks a lot Woot!

I saw your post awhile back about how your shipping info said you had .4 lbs of stuff coming your way and you were a 1. Seeing this gives me hope about mine because I'm also a 1 and it says that same thing. I just have to wait and see!

It's bounced around a little...

Did anyone else get broken woot lights?

I'm not sure if I can complain though, one light works, and the other light turns on but doesn't spin.

I just received my Random scaffolding and I must say I am quite pleased. the tracking said 0.4 lbs but it was quite a bit more when I got it.

1 - working HDMI upconverting DVD with the remote missing... currently playing the night at the roxbury.
3 - 80 Gig Western Digital Hard Drives - No complaint here... I'll use em
1 - Random AC/DC adaptor... no clue what it is for
1 - tinkerbell lunch kit... my younger cousin loves it
1 - set of sandisk earbuds
1 - sandisk usb cable
1 - armband and case for a sandisk mp3 player
0 - Woot lights... I'll have to use the ones my sister got

and my cat is already in the box having the time of his life. Thanks again Woot Gods and Happy Birthday.
