Nah, unfortunately not. USPS got it yesterday for me and I attempted to pick it up. After asking if I could, I received some nasty attitude from the clerk. "NO YOU CAN'T PICK IT UP! YOU'LL GET IT TOMORROW WHEN IT'S SCHEDULED FOR DELIVERY!" She said.

I assume that because it is in "sorting" that they wont be able to locate it until the carrier picks up their load for that days delivery.

Received my fourth Boggy Old Creature.

1 Spock Figure
1 Kirk figure
1 Million Dollar Password Board Game
1 Camera Bag
1 Revenge of the Sith Filmcell
1 Jabra opened pack doesn't seem to work

I think they have slowly gotten better for me with each one. Still hoping for a decent haul. I would trade it all for a working Sansa or Roomba. I'll keep trying though.

just got my heap o' poop last night. It was like Christmas for the family as we tore into it. So here is our haul.

1x- Sansa 8g
2x- Sansa 4g (one broken)
1x- Sansa 2g
1X- Sansa compatible USB cable
1x- I Go Everywhere
1X- I Go Everywhere Tip (mini USB)
1X- Kirk figure
1X-Spock figure
1X-Obligatory Camera Bag
2X-120g internal hard drives
0x- bags of hot Texas air

I think, I love the hard drives (from 2003) the most. They are pure, unadulterated c R a P. My wife and I just smiled when we pulled them out. Fun for the whole family. We might just give them away as White Elephant gifts. Thanks WooT!

Not sure if it will help, but I will write an email to Woot asking about buying 3 items.

Time for a letter...you're supposed to get three items, including a bag of some sort.

Fed Ex tracking said it dropped package off at my post office monday morning, my usps tracking info has yet to update saying that it actually did receive the package, i got a horrible response to my question when i asked her where it was, so now im hoping i get it tomorow, if not, no merry christmas for me. I hate the post office lol

bradchristie wrote:I hear Ya... It's taken 4 days from WV to NH. From the 23rd to the 28th. ;-\

Mine did also, until it showed up in NH on Monday!

Finally got my Boggy Old Creature. This is #2 for me and much better than the last one. 8.4 lbs (shrunk 2 lbs during transit)
Here's the list:

1x Pink Panther DVD set
1x Maxtor 40 GB HDD
1x WD Caviar 80 GB HD
2x Sansa c250 2GB MP3
9x Sansa e260 4GB MP3
1x American Tourister Photo Bag
1x IPod USB power cord

The c250's both work but you have to be very gentle with the headphone jacks or you only get sound in 1 ear. 5 of the e260's seem to be without problems so far, some with preloaded music. One of the 260's works, but has a few bad files (Filipino Music)on it that my computer can't see to remove them and it has a Filipino guy doing stand up in Tagalog that I can't seem to remove. One 260 came with a bashed in screen, but I'm pretty sure that happened during transit between the bubble wrap slipping off some of the players and 2 hard drives floating around in the box (and my boyfriend kept shaking the damn box while I was at work, trying to figure out what was inside) One 260 just has the ring of death, haven't taken the back off yet, and the last one says "key lock powering down", I've tried removing the battery, but that didn't work and the system restore doesn't seem to be working either, but I'll try more later when I have more time. Some cables and headphones came loose, some were with players...all in all I got 18 USB Sansa power cords (if anyone wants to send a prepaid envelope I'll share them just PM me) 9 sansa earphones, 2 unbranded white earphones that look like IPod wannabes and 3 other unbranded white earphones.

All in all I couldn't be happier with my haul. Thanks Woot!

came yesterday morning. found it when i woke up around noon time :]

3x victory wax
6x model airplane
4x star trek quog figures
2x pro football handheld game
2x fact or scaffolding books

I say do it NOW. scaffolding != Christmas gift. scaffolding == lot's of fun on the day it chooses to arrive at home. Don't get me wrong... I really, really enjoyed receiving my box of cats and opening it, as always, but I just cannot think of it as a Christmas gift, you know?

Perhaps there's a PS3 in there, but I shutter at the thought of opening it around the entire family and finding a camera bag, broken HD, broken Sansa, and Victory Wax oozing all over the box and Christmas tree skirt. LOL, that would be bad...

YES.... Thank you Peter...i really didnt want to wait!!!

Give me about 15-20 min.


(im so excited...lol..feel like a giddy school girl that just got asked out by the starting QB)

wait a second...i dont know how that feels (#1 im a guy....#2 I've never been asked out by any QB (and happy about that too)

If anyone comes up with an extra Sansa e260 cable and is willing to share, please PM me. I think I have working e260 in my bag, but can't charge it.

Thanks!

Same here. I have two e260's and a c250 that I need a cable for. Not sure if they use the same one. I would be very grateful!

I might just rethink #2

Lingerie Football League anyone?

Here are the results of my first ever Boggy Old Creature:

1x 2gb c250v2 Sansa working
3x 4gb e260 Sansas (2 working, 1 TBD)
1x WD Caviar 250 gb HD (no idea if it works)
1x Spock
1x Kirk
1x Halloween Safety Light
1x empty Sansa box with a sticky note that had a serial number written on it
1x camera bag
1x Belkin zipper case for a XM Express, new in case
1x Star Wars film cell, Darth Sidious holding his palms out in a ominous manner.

I was hoping to get a Sansa that worked for my wife, so I'm stoked about that.

I was hoping to get a Star Wars film cell, I'm not a Star Wars fan but I thought it'd be a good gift. I didn't know any Star Wars fans to give it to though. I told my Mom what my Boggy Old Creature haul was and then a few hours later she called me and said that her co-workers' husband is a huge Star Wars fan (he has a Darth Vader tat o_0) and wanted to know how much I'd sell the film cell for. I told her I'd give it to her co-worker for free and when my Mom relayed the message her co-worker started to cry. I guess she was having a really bad day and was overjoyed that I'd just give that to her with no hesitation.

So thanks Woot for my Boggy Old Creature and making me a Christmas do-gooder!

I did...I only got 2 items as well...I sent an email and got a reply that it was "weird" that it did not have any packing material...I email back that it contained only 1 piece of tissue paper...waiting for another reply. I send a picture with the email of the box. I have a feeling the Woot guy (Tye) did not believe me.

I just got an update, it's been with USPS since 10:14 AM today. Expected tomorrow....We shall see! I'll be VERY excited if it comes! ;-)

And is it safe to assume you're another NH wooter esbaylus?

Dman27 wrote:yeah I mean i dont wanna pester them, like what can they send me for a 3rd Item that will be so good another bottle of wax? lol

I look at it as I paid for 3 items...crappy item or not...I want 3 darn it!

I'm flying home tonight for Christmas and I'll have a baby of the cosmos waiting for me when I arrive. My Mom thought it was strange that I told her to bring it with her to the airport so I can open it on the drive back, but I cannot wait any longer, it has been there since the 19th. It is a 6.6 lber and it seems like the midsize ones are getting some decent stuff, hopefully mine is good as well.

Mine was delivered yesterday, but was out of town and a neighbor picked it up.

2x30GB White refurb Zunes (1 labeled defective). Haven't tested.
4 - 4GB Sansas. Haven't tested.
1 - Generic iPod nano fat-like MP3 player. Looks like it's toast.
1 - Generic MP3 case
1 - National Geographic watch (wrapped in a paper towel in a fold top sandwich baggy). Nice looking watch, but I think it's dead. The hands don't seem to work.
1 - Revenge of the Sith film cell
1 - box of tea
1 - Spock
1 - Kirk
6 - bags of Texas air
Tons of cables and earbuds

Overall pretty good, my best bag yet. If I can get one of the MP3 players to work it will be a steal.

That is a great story. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Wow, I was [kinda] right about that one.

Thanks for posting what you got, btw.

I think my wife got your National Geographic watch box. Sounds like you won't be needing it, though.

Merry Christmas WOOT!

Man it would be sweet to get a letter in my next B@g I get.
