So wait till he receives his package. From there you will know whats up. Since you got the letter, its yours

I get mine Tue if Smartpost is telling the truth. Im hoping for a world nomination shirt but if I dont get one I will gladly pay shipping if anyone wants to send one or 2 my way.

i think we are up to 9 letters now...but considering they are sending out just some old iphones im not surprised about how many letters there are this time around.

The REAL letter is leo's as far as im concerned.

A Halogen oven!...

Lucky Duck. I've got a freezer full of halogens and no way to cook 'em.

...notice how the people who truly got crap keep hanging around generating pointless messages and won't go away.


Pathetic. Glad I'm not one.

I must be reading a different message board

edit to that...you complained about your crap when you got it.

Oh well, congrats to those who did well. Happy New Year!”

Why is Leo's letter the real letter?

My tracking number still doesn't work!! I received my tracking info from Woot on 12/28, however my tracking number still is "not found" in the Fedex system. I sent an email to Woot asking about this and here's their response:

"Sorry about the delay. BOCs can take a little longer to process, mainly because we're trying to make it extra crappy for you. Your tracking is valid and should update with movement soon. Please let us know if you don't see any movement on it by Wednesday and we can look further into it."


The anticipation is driving me crazy!! I have had so much fun reading through this whole forum! This has been the best Bundle of Coats experience that I have seen for a lot of people. I just hope I get to see mine soon!

Because the other letter recipients thus far have received iPhones.. Now, while that is indeed some very cool crap, Leo will be taking delivery of two pallets containing an estimated 569 pounds of electronics.. Or so he has been told by FedEx.

Now THAT is some serious crap....

Can't wait Leo!!! Do you have any finger nails left?

His is one of the real ones because he's scheduled to receive 569lbs in mystery items... Not just a cell phone.

Cool thing for woot to send out so many letters this time around.

Got my Bag of Coal. 6lbs.
1 x PGA backpack
1 x PGA hat
1 x set of 3 aqua globes
6 x boxes of crappy Christmas cards

Fun to take part in but it's my 3rd Bag of Coal and it's much more 'C' than the other 2. Try. try, again!

I'm pumped to see his too, but I'm still happy with my iPhone. I mean I can't use it (I'm on Verizon) but its something nice to sell and make back some cash.

how much did your package weigh?

trunks2020 wrote:Yup it is completely charged. The Apple logo comes on and then about 2 minutes later a white wheel (its the I'm thinking icon for Apple) comes up but it doesn't move. I let it sit there for about 3-4 hours. I did a hard reboot (press the power and home button together for 10 seconds until the phone turns off) and it still goes to the same spot.

I sent a message to woot. (I'm not complaining, I am very mindful of the Bag of Coal. commandments) I was just inquiring if there was 3rd party that I could contact someone if the phone was defective since it was was in a sealed container and it is factory refurbished. It never hurts to ask.... right?

Do forced recovery mode. Hold down the home button while you attach it to iTunes.

Hmm... My bro's "JMHSRV" didn't get an iPhone with his letter...

JMHSRV wrote:I think they could have fit an eyefone in my original box...

They could have in mine as well but they still sent it separately.

pernst wrote:Hmm... My bro's "JMHSRV" didn't get an iPhone with his letter...

OK.. I will clarify...

"MOST" of the other letter recipients received an iPhone. Not sure what the others received (if they've gotten it yet)... There are at least 8 letters out there, and I believe 4 or 5 of them have checked in with iPhones and of course, Leo...

Received one 28 pound box that was 23 inches high x 19.5 inches wide x 19 inches deep.
It contained the following items.
1 PGA shoulder back wife claimed it already
2 PGA ball caps sized for very much smaller head than mine but adjusted to fit

24 Sylvania wireless head phones.
All appear complete just damage to the boxes in varying degrees only need a couple to work.

Merry WOOTmas to me cant wait for the next opportunity thank you very much WOOT

Holy Santa Claus Conquers the Martians (1964) It's 2 pallets, damn!!! How long have you been wooting and how many Bags of Used Kitty Litter have you gotten in the past?

I think I'm the only one to get nothing but the junk - I got the PGA stuff, gold's gym bag, and size-XL shirt.woot castoffs.

Not worth $0.01...

I'd be willing to drop a couple bucks on a audio enhancer for ears. How much would you consider?

Got my Bag of Coal today. 5.5lb box. Inside was:

1x PGA Backpack
3x Gold's Gym Tote Bags
1x 4GB Refurb Sansa (appears to be working perfectly)
1x Air Horn

and the big one...

1x Cobra Radar Detector XRS 9840
(Looks like it retails for $88 on Amazon. This one looks like a returned item. Hopefully it will sell on ebay.)

Thanks Woot!!

Since 2005, and this is my first Bundle of Carrots!!!!
I think the Woot! gods saved it all for one great aromatic bundle!

My brother gave me his tracking number, and I just looked to see where it is at, and this is what I found:

At 10:25PM on 1/3/11 (now), his most recent status says "Jan 4, 2011, 2:44AM, At U.S. Postal Service facility". How in the world does that work? (same time zone as me, so don't go blaming it on that).

Here is my theory: "Fedex Smartpost, so slow it has to use the future to get things delivered faster."
