I think what a lot of folks are saying here, and believe me I have enough trouble speaking for myself let alone anyone else; is that the culture that we grew with at Woot is as important or more so than the fact that you sell stuff.

Whether Bunnies Ogling Carrots#39;s, Monkeys, Woot Lights (anyone need some I have extras) and the like all make this a site worth shopping. There are lots of deal a day sites and maybe better values on the same items, but the Way Woots are described, the fun of the chases and puzzles on you know what day, all make the Woot experience unique.

Please whatever you morph into, don't lose that!

My brilliant post on this thread is simply this: Me, too.

I'm lost. "The Bags of Crap are worse than ever and how dare you not sell them to us!" I don't get it.

I will say I liked it better when you had to choose whether to order 1, 2, or 3. But for the last couple of years it's felt like a joke that a few too many people took a little too seriously, with the spreadsheets and the tracking and the weighing (I mean, seriously, people are not just looking at how much it weighs but reporting every little change as it gets on one mis-calibrated scale after another?) and the videos. I stopped reading BOC threads when that started. But I'm just one guy too (and not out to get in the way of anyone else's fun).

No one who has been on the site for very long should have expected a b.........o.......c this time but for woot.com to put up a condescending description ripping its customers as tadpoles is just plain wrong.

Would Apple or any other real company call out its customers(fanboys) like that??? I highly doubt it.

See, that's what I'm talking about. Random stuff in rapid succession. The interspersing of the baggies is odd but very Woot-like.

Didn't score one, though
