Fingers crossed. Daughter is in charge of making it work. Teenagers don't think Moms can do much of anything right so she will let me know if it works!

edit: Forgot to say it looks brand new. No scratches or marks.



This has me a bit concerned. Not shipped in a box to protect an expensive electronic item is not good and I'm on the West coast so who knows what condition this will be in when I get it. At least the pod case itself was good for you.

Oh well, at least there is a warranty and Apple is pretty good about things like that so here's hoping all works out well for everyone who bought. /crosses fingers

Surprise, surprise! My order never changed to shipped and, lo and behold, the FedX truck just pulled up with my iPod Touch.

Order to door? Friday, July 23 to Thursday, July 29. That was faster than I thought it would be.

Thanks!

Sooo...I have been checking Fedex for a while now and for the past 3 days, my order has been listed as initiated. They show the pick-up day as the 28th and the delivery day as the 31st.

Has anyone else experienced this? Do you think it is in transit and just has not been updated on the site?

I ordered one of these six days ago and apparently it hasn't even shipped yet. Has anybody else received theirs?

We generally ship items within five business days after the sale and I believe that makes tomorrow the fifth business day. You should receive shipping information soon, both via email and under "My account." jnevil might even swing by to post a shipping update.

Did you know shirt.woot ships internationally? Get you some!

It works! I'm posting on it! It is way cool! So just the case it was packed in was squashed.

Got mine.

Squished case. ipod seems fine.

I'm having trouble placing a phone call- I don't know why my sim card keeps falling out the slot in the bottom...

Also- multi-tasking doesn't work so well on mine....

Never had one of these. looks fun. Maybe I'll write an app for it. Maybe I'll e the first to make a flashlight out of it.

Thanks Amazon, er Woot.

Mine arrived today and the website never updated to a shipped status. I honestly thought it would be next week before I got it.

My credit card was billed on the 26th, FedEx tracking by reference shows same thing:
Jul 28, 2010 3:06 PM Shipment information sent to FedEx

since yesterday and has not updated. Guess it's a wait and see thing, maybe they are sending everything east first to get to california.

Anticipated ship date
Jul 28, 2010

Estimated delivery

Technically Friday is five days. It says usually ships within 5 business days. Saturday and Sunday don't count as business days...no one is there to put your order together.

does the day you order ( Friday ) count as a business day?..if so then Thursday is the fifth day.

Friday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday.

We count starting the time the sale ends, which ends up translating to exactly a week after the sale. We should have all of these shipped out and tracking emailed by the end of the day tomorrow.

Thanks for the clarification on how the 5 days is determined.

Still seems a no-no to bill my credit card 3-4 days before item has even shipped.
Billed on 26th, as of the 29th not shipped yet per FedEx tracking, just initiated. Wish I could get my payment initiated and not happen for days.

Well, the reason we charge right away is because of our business model. We only offer a limited number of one item per day, it benefits both us and potential buyers to make sure that the stock being reserved will be paid for, and the best insurance for that is to bill immediately and then reserve the item for that order. I hope I'm being clear enough.

Personally, and totally unrelated to Woot, I much prefer being billed right away. At that moment I am mentally putting aside the money for this purchase that I probably do not need. If I'm not billed right away, I may trick myself into believing I have more money than I actually do when checking my account because I'm irresponsible and no good at budgeting.

Clear enough is the fact that waiting 2 weeks from order date makes me not want to order again. I have had no problems in the past with Woot on first 2 orders, this one for ipod and the last one for Woot-Off lights were entirely too slow, 2 weeks for the lights from order/payment to me getting them should have been a red flag.

I am happy for those who like me ordered on the 23rd and already have them, guess mine will wear out a week later than theirs in the end.

OK now we know when the five days begin and why we are charged before shipping, but what about the order of shipping? Are items shipped in the order that they are bought, eg. those who order first get shipped first?

same for Seattle... the 4th as estimated delivery.. oh well, was hoping I'd have it for this weekend for a festival I'm selling at. /sigh

What's funny tho, is my account doesn't show that it's shipped yet. Fed Ex, however, has a nice lil tracking number for me.

I must say... This is the first thing that I ever bought from Woot after casually checking it over a 2.5yr period and I am a bit worried/irritated that it is taking this long to ship my iPod. I live in NC, so I wouldn't think it would take this long... Anybody near me get theirs yet?

Just to add on... I love WOOT(all of them) and i know after a few days every product discussion just gets flooded with the same BS:

whens mine coming? is it here yet? Daddy I'm thirsty, shes touching me... etc. blah blah blah...

I was just adding my 2 cents as a joke :-)

But really.... I want my touch so bad! LMAO
Love all you guy and gals at Woot... PLEASE don't change with amazon influence

Yesterday I checked the tracking & it said:
Ship date: 7/28/10
Estimated delivery: 7/29/10

Now it says:
Ship date: 7/29/10
Estimated delivery: 7/30/10

I'm literally less than 30 miles than where it's shipping from (in NJ). I really hope it comes today & doesn't change to Monday

Mine just says that it's ordered. On my account, there's nothing about it being shipped, haven't received an email with tracking. I order from woot occasionally, and love it, and am very patient. However, my newly working 16 year old bought this ipod with her own money and is driving me to distraction with "is it here yet".
Keeping my fingers crossed!!!


We received it yesterday, daughter is super happy, kind of a neat little toy too!! Of course, I am iStupid, so it took me two hours to figure out itunes and getting it to work, but she's got apps and all sorts of crap on it. As usual, Woot rules!!!!
