1x Cy-Fi Wireless Speaker
1x USB Mirror

My dimensions were listed as 11.2 cubed, however I'm sure it wasn't.

I'm pretty happy with the score. Plus I just heard that the McRib is back. Woot!

Careful with the McRibs, had one today and where the sauce dripped , it hit my pants burned a hole clear through !
But so gooood. Glad they dont last long in my area, I'd run outa pants !

Add me to the list of 1lb placeholders with no evidence of a physical package in the Fedex tracking system, waiting impatiently for some kind of sign showing status/package movement/natural disaster/warehouse staff strike/etc.

Finally updated! It took 6 days to get from Carrollton to Dallas. 3.5 pounder on the way, 16.0x12.2x10.6 - delivery scheduled for Halloween day!

Dude. Are you in the FBI witness protection program or something?

What's up with the voice distortion?

Disappointed that my box shed 3 lbs. Expected on Thursday, won't be able to open until Friday. Bleh.

Mine is still the same weight. 3.0 lbs. When does it get reweighed? When it arrives or departs the next place?

I just now FINALLY got my details. The box just arrived at the Dallas FedEx with the following details: 18in x 14.6in x 14.2in weighing in at a whopping 7.3 lbs (my largest yet).

Unfortunately estimated arrival isn't until Oct 31. Hopefully it took this long to make it out of the warehouse because it's extra special.

No kidding, what is up with your voice....

My 6.7 pounds of crapola is scheduled for the 26th though I'm expecting it tomorrow... hopefully!

Soon we shall see!

Currently my crap sits in Edison, NJ, but is not supposed to get to me until Thursday. So close, and yet, so far.

For some reason the audio came out like that when I uploaded it to youtube so I just left it.


fbi....

Me too...should be stinking up my doorstep in Brooklyn tomorrow.

Hope your crap is good crap and not the perfect pushup.

6.9 Lbs arrived today:

23 Bags of Texas Air
4 Yellow Breo Watches
1 Flower Tote Bag
and...
1 Vibe Sound USB Turntable (converts Records to MP3)

Not too shabby for my first ever Box of Cobwebs

Totally agree. Creepiest ever...can I have 1:44 of my life back?

Sadly, my bag is only 1.8lbs, and not due to arrive until Oct. 31st! Hoping for some extra-special Halloween crap, but not optimistic with the small weight. This will be my 4th Box of Cobwebs though, maybe I'm due for something good!

Holy cow! Fedex just changed my breakfast of champions from 13lbs to 18.2lbs! So very excited!

23.1 in. x 19.6 in. x 19.2 in. = 5 cubic feet of guaranteed goodness!!

I got mine today:

Flower bag
2 Breo watches, one of which was pre-broken for my convenience
USB lighted mirror
Home control receiver

All-in-all better than the 2010 calendars I got last year right before it ended.

ThunderThighs wrote:Uhm, guys... just a thought but this may be one of those questions that you don't ask. Right up there with asking a woman you don't know when her baby is due only to find out she's just a big plump.

Please be sensitive to the possibility that it wasn't an electronic manipulation.

In retrospect, you are correct. FYI, even if you did have ThunderThighs, I would never comment on it. Not to you or even snidely to someone near me. And I hope everyone here knows about the baby thing.

In the end, it does seem like a harmless event. The OP claims it 'just came out that way' after uploading to YouTube.

And, I would assume if the OP had an issue with his voice, he would have done a different kind of video. Without his voice, using text overlays instead.

Got my Box of Cobwebs today, exactly as scheduled! Fedex said it was 5.4lbs, 16 in. x 12.2 in. x 10.6 in., which seems about right.

(Click for bigger)

1x icon Digital Camera Case
1x Super Duper Kiddo Goal Chart
1x Little Labs Animals Beginner Experiment Kit
1x Footflush
1x USB Lighted Mirror
1x Baywatch Barbie Backpack
2x Green Breo Skin Watches

Very interesting stuff. Thanks, Woot!

Finally I have left the desert wasteland of placeholders! I have 3.2lbs of crap, to be delivered on the 26th. From what I've seen of the other 3lb-ish craps, seems like my little first cousins once removed will be getting Christmas presents from me this year.

Pretty standard stuff I guess:

14 bags of Texas air. My cats are playing with it right now...

2 breo skin watches, white
1 USB mirror
1 Little Labs animals kit
1 Baywatch Barbie Girls backpack
and 1 smartphone charger.

Downgraded from placeholder of 3lbs to 2.3 lbs.

Dimensions are 14.2 in. x 10.5 in. x 8.6 in.

Due 10/27

Crap!

You'll see it on Wednesday if your post office is like mine..
Where in Jersey are you?

Not really liking the kids theme that they had this time around. I don't know anyone who can use it - I guess I'll make some random girl's christmas.

At least I'm assuming I got the standard crap - I'll let you know tomorrow.

Started out at 2.6 pounds, shed 1.2 on the way, and it is currently one state over, hopefully it'll be here by Thursday at the latest.

im just gonna try re uploading it

ANTICIPATION.

I still find it interesting that mind is coming to the same place YET mine went from KC to PA, and won't be delivered until Thursday...

My BOC has only just arrived at the FedEx location in Dallas.

Measurements:

24,1 lbs / 11 kgs
16.8 inch cube (calculated I guess)

Due on 10/28.

This will be the first large one of the nine that I've purchased.

Probably 2007 calendars or something.

Who wants to take the BOC image and make a NyanBOC out of it? You can use the "B. A. G. of C. R. A. P." wooting-off theme for the music...

That would be a violation of federal firearms law. Transfer of a firearm to a nonlicensee with delivery by mail, common carrier or contract carrier is only legal in state (I didn't even think that was legal). It is illegal to transfer a firearm to a nonlicensee residing in another state (this implies in person, which doesn't seem right and probably actually means shipped). Antique (firearms before 1899) and replicas are exempted, as are air guns.

(A licensee as used above is a holder of a Federal Firearms License (FFL) allowing one to engage in the business of selling firearms. It is undefined as to the number of transactions an individual may make in the year before the BATF considers you to be "in the business". A frequent attender of gun shows who turns over a large collection could run afoul of the law without knowing it.)

The FAQ references "ATF 'Federal Firearms Regulations Reference Guide' (ATF P 5300.4)".

In the 3.7 lb. box:
9 Bags of Texas Air
2 Breo Skin Watches
1 Little Labs Beginner Experiment Kit
1 USB Lighted Mirror
1 Princess Marionette
1 Super Duper Kiddo Goal Chart
1 Baywatch Barbie Bag
0 Letters

My co-worker had a 3.4 lb box. He received the same items except he was missing the marionette.

This sounds exactly like what one of my co-workers received (with Marionette). When you think about it, Barbie is just about the right proportions for Baywatch...

Everyone knows... The only winning move is not to play.

You win the Internet.

Mine is powering through MA, and it went from 0.7 pounds to 1.6 pounds. Two more days until delivery!

Finally left placeholder purgatory late yesterday. 4.3 lbs of crap coming my way (16 X 12.2 X 10.6), estimated delivery date November 1. Still a full week of waiting to come.
