I went to town the last couple of weeks with woot shirts, hp touchpad (finally getting it shipped from hp), and other items. Not sure if the Box of Cobwebs will be the highlight of delivery week next week. Nonetheless, I hope to score something weighing at 4.7lbs and no dimensions.

Just got home to find it waiting for me! My very first Bandolier of Carrots!

SPOILERS!!!

Contents:
1x Experimental Lab (Animals)
2x Breo Skin Watch (White) (also, it fits!)
1x Baywatch Barbie Backpack
1x Super Duper Kiddo goal chart (in tube)
10x bags of presumably Texan air (for cushiony justice)
1x Hand Painted Princess Marionette (my tiny dancer)
1x USB lighted mirror
2x empty cellophane (I suspect these were on the watches at one point)

I'm very excited that I have all of this excellent crap now. Thanks Woot!

Sounds like a perfect Box of Cobwebs for parents of little girls... too bad that's not me!

Still, for a first Box of Cobwebs I think I won't really care. You don't buy a Box of Cobwebs and expect anything but, especially for your first.

Yeah, you should always expect your first time to be Monster A-Go Go (1965). That's what I hear anyways.

Coming from TX:

1 lbs / 0,5 kgs
16.5 in. x 13 in. x 10.8 in.
Arrived at FedEx location; GROVE CITY, OH

On it's way to me in Buffalo, NY. Tracking still says 1 lb.

Is this ever going to change or is it actually 1 lb??

You have actual dimensions and they're big enough to hold an 8.5x11 sheet of paper. That looks promising, my friend.

Ah yes, your first time. Mine was almost a year ago on 12/1/10.

For a Bucket of Candycorn that is...

2 crappy picture ornaments and some other non-memorable crap. It is what it is - crap.

Mine has showed no progress via fedex (smart post = slow boat) en route also to upstate NY. Still hoping my tiny package turns out to be a pallet of car wax. :P

I view Bucket of Candycorn spoilers the same way I view ultrasounds to find out babies' genders: it's still a surprise when I find out, and I might need some extra time to prepare myself to become the proud owner of some of this crap.

Arrrgh! Still 1lb placeholder, no dimensions, no arrval at any Fedex Depot. I always complain that once I find out the weight, I pretty much know what to expect from the postings, but here I am with no weight, and I don't like it!

At least there is no Email yet from TPW that everything has been sent out. That, or the package was too small and eluded the Fedex scanners.

Well my box arrived today(2 days early I might add)

Box weighed 4.9 lbs

Contents:
1 x recycled tote
1 x Canvas Woot branded tote
1 x box of split track (wood set of 12) - not sure what this goes to
1 x Skil 21 piece Ratcheting Screwdriver set
2 x Breo Skin watches (yellow in color for both)
9 x bags of pulmonary exhaust

That was the extent of my box of cobwebs. It seemed nicely craptacular.

That's part of the magic of Smartpost!

Placeholder,

Please remove yourself from my box of cobwebs. I cannot help but troll the forum for information on you. Seeing others post their box of cobwebs is nearly unbearable. If you do not leave, I will remove you by force. Be prepared to meet your inevitable demise.

Sincerely,
Your DOOM BRINGER



Here here! I second that.

Holy wow. This just in from woot HQ:

http://twitter.com/#!/woot/status/127821026959704064

"Hey hey, ho ho, woot.com is about to go... down. We're moving servers, so please be patient with us!"

Does that mean no further 1 hour long battles for Box of Cobwebs?

Got mine today! Here's what it had:
1 Baywatch Barbie Backpack
1 Dream Cheeky USB Lighted Mirror
1 Melissa & Doug Princess Marionette
1 Thames and Kosmos animals beginner experiment kit
2 Purple Breo Skin Watches
1 Footflush, Classic version



Seems like pretty standard crap for the Box of Cobwebs#39;s as of late. For all the kid stuff that seems to show up, maybe Woot should offer a Box of Cobwebs on kids.woot?

As a side note, if anyone gets the prince or the horse marionette and would want to trade, let me know.

Mine is 1.6 with no dimensions, haven't seen anything close to this weight yet either !!! Would ask for favor from woot and have it be a letter but I don't want to jinx it.

Shipping update: Estimated delivery date has been bumped up a day to Tuesday 10/25 (sweet!). I've also noticed mah bukkits are now passing thru Kansas City, KS as opposed to New Berlin, WI before heading to 13375[)413, PA and ultimately Canton, OH. Coincidence? Only the Great Snail knows...

Still a place holder, no tracking details. Apparently it either hasn't shipped yet or FedEx hasn't scanned it at all yet? Probably laying on the warehouse floor all alone.

No, mine appears to be right next to it. I got a shipping notification from Woot on Thurs or Fri but as of yet FedEx doesn't appear to have picked it up. Just a placeholder. They'd better be hooking us up with something good for having to wait so much longer.

Mine came yesterday, was 4.8 lbs of rough similarity:

1 x Black/Green recycled tote.
1 x Woot canvas tote
2 x Breo Skin watches (yellow, 20cm)
1 x Box of 12 pieces of wooden split track (works with Brio/Thomas wooden railway sets)
1 x 48 piece Accessory Pack for wooden railways
1 x Woot.shirt "Wash Me" (debuted April 23, 2010) Kids size 8.
Many x Bags of Texas Air

I'm keeping the canvas bag. Daughter will get the watches.
Wooden railway bits would have been useful 10 years ago, when son was 6. I'm going to stash them in the box of wooden trains for the eventual grandkids.

Thanks Woot!!
