Anyway, I got the TV today believe it or not because I can't figure out how to post a picture from Webshots because that is the only place I put it on the web. So excuse me for not being so savvy as to know how to post a picture. Excuse me while I go read my manual on my new 61 inch TV. And yes I have a picture of the note too but like I said............ I don't know how to post it!!!

Post it the same way you posted the pic of the TV!

If people will just go directly to the website you linked, they will see your new TV. But, in consultation with my wife, who is an Interior Designer, we suggest that you NOT leave the TV in its current location. Seems it would be hard to watch TV.

Congratulations!!

(And yes, I'm jealous of you)

i recant my previous statement, this IS the same tv the guy got last year!!

(woot, a 1 year old tv???? i hope mine tomorrow is newer ;)

I uhhh... hope I get anything. No contact information to me what-so-ever, lol. I think the Giant Head may be looming near for me. I really do believe so. Eh, or more than likely whatever is coming to me is taking it time. Which I don't mind one bit. Not expecting super fast shipping for $8 on any item. rofl

Heh, oh well I shall wait patiently for a call or some notice.

Well, a 1 year old HDTV could be crap. While it is a 61" HDTV and all...it doesn't support 1080p like 42" Westinghouse 42w2 does! But I paid $1618.99 more for mine.

Maybe this guy didn't actually get a note, and someone accidentally shipped your TV to him.

The note was just added to that guy's albums, looks different. Could CU.. and pixel repost theirs?

OK, so here are the pictures.......... I hope

The TV


The Note


Hope it works!

I'm not jealous or angry if people are getting tv's but im calling bull shite until someone from woot says that people are getting tvs this time around. They always have, and they always will confirm such statements.

thats a 'legit note' exactly like mine (worded the same) but in green marker.

Uh oh...note looks legit!

We don't know where the hell we are gonna put it! Thanks

Well, ladies and gents, since the cat is out of the bag, I will reveal all.

When i got the call from the delivery company, the guy gave it up by saying "are you so and so because we have a TV to deliver to you."

So, I`ve known i was getting a tv since the other day. Cuat my apologies in keeping it from you, i didnt want to ruin ur surprise (ive been peeing in my pants the last two days). So assuming this is the real deal (and i think it is from this guy), that means there are AT LEAST two TVs. Question is, will i get this year old tv, the planar lcd they sold not too long ago, or the newer 61". Only tomorrow will tell....

(oh and i hope its the newer one, ONLY because i can hook my dreamcast up to it over VGA!!!!)

Sweet, I wish I would have gotten through, only made it to the waiting for someone to screw up list. I would have even relished craptastic mexican boxing gloves. Congrats to the at least one tv winner, perhaps up to 3, or more!

Am I getting Ken Jennings giant head? 0_0

I don't know if I should be happy or... oh dear god.. This explains all the secretiveness. No delivery calls, not a single word. Eeek.

sorry for having aim chats with you and not telling you, i just didnt want to ruin the surprise

No I'm not holding it against you. You have no say in who gets what. lol

Well, I might as well prepare a mecca for it or something. Start roping off part of the commons. Prepare the flash photography ($5 a picture with ken jennings giant head)

Congrats Monidel and thanks for the pics. Too many others have tried to "claim" a big one and didn't have one. I missed out on the Bandolier of Carrots but have throughly enjoyed seeing what everyone else got. Congrats to Pixel and CU too.

Ill trade ya a battery charger congrats!

You are welcome. And thanks to all the non believers that made me learn how to post pictures! Look out woot............ I know how to post pictures now!

ikishk wrote:Ill trade ya a battery charger congrats!

Naw, I want the strawberry shortcake watch!

I'm also going to need a tailor. It is going to start snowing soon here. Poor Ken Jennings will need a hat and a scarf. Maybe a ski mask.

Then again, I don't even know if I'm getting that. Blah. All I know is, my odds of getting that item have just rose.

unless of course woot just put tv on the invoice to trick me.

i asked the guy how big the tv was and he didnt know. he said "i dont know but therye paying us alot to deliver it to you" which kinda does worry me

Congrats I hope you get the tv you want tomorrow. Just wondering when the delivery people let the cat out of bag and you knew it was a tv and not a huge head that wouldn't fit thru your door why didn't you just have them deliver the tv to your home. God forbid you and your friend at work transport it yourself and have an accident getting it into your home. I am sure you have been busy clearing out a perfect space for that baby to come to daddy. Hope you enjoy it for many years to come.

Oh in that case congrats not only go to you they go out to your girlfriend who will reap the benefits of a new tv along with you. I'd also like to say thanks to the woot gods for making this bag..of..crap an extra special one for the lucky 3 holders of woot letters and for all of us who just enjoyed going along on their adventure.

I wish I had your problem... wait, I have a solution, you could give the tv to me!
I'm so jealous, I'd like to know how it feels to own an eight-dollar 61in. tv - even if it's facing away from the couch.
