Crap!



1 Box Coffee PODs (i actually bought one of these contraptions from sellout.woot)
1 Fake made in China backpack (pretty sure it is Japanese)
1 Wing tray, color red (great for holding nip bottles)
1 Space: 1999 "Mentor" action figure

standard Bandolier of Carrots this go 'round:

1x red and black backpack w/ silica gel
1x Mr T story/LP
1x Snacdaddy (red, yesss)
2x iGuy
3x logitech connector thingies

woot, thanks for the fun and anticipation on my first Bandolier of Carrots!!!

UPDATE: Atomic Watch - SIMA RCW 102 (actually a RCW 101).

Mine came 'DOA' more like DB (dead battery), anyway I changed the battery and it seems to be working fine...at least for now. The test comes at 3am when it's supposed to communicate with the NIST signal and 'set' itself to the correct time. We will see.

funny side note about the watch is that the band was on upside down.

I got my Blinged-Out Cabbage today!!!!!! For finally getting my first Bandolier of Carrots, this was amazing!

The Contents:

1 Std. Issue Red and Black Backpack.

1 Package of What Animal Are You? Swizzle Sticks
And now for the Biggie:

Did a Google Product search and it showed up as costing $225.

upload it at imageshack.us or similar and then take the url and put it between
[i_m_g] [/i_m_g] (drop the _ when you do this.)

replace the '{' with '[' below

Adding an image to a post
phpBB BBCode incorporates a tag for including images in your posts. Two very important things to remember when using this tag are: many users do not appreciate lots of images being shown in posts and second, the image you display must already be available on the Internet (it cannot exist only on your computer, for example, unless you run a webserver!). There is currently no way of storing images locally with phpBB (all these issues are expected to be addressed in the next release of phpBB). To display an image, you must surround the URL pointing to the image with {img]{/img] tags. For example:

{img]http://www.phpbb.com/images/phplogo.gif{/img]

As noted in the URL section above you can wrap an image in a tag if you wish, eg.

{url=http://www.phpbb.com/]{img]http://www.phpbb.com/images/phplogo.gif{/img]{/url]

Here's a picture:

You had everything right in your original post, except the link was not a direct link to the image. You got it now though.

Thanks to you, and to all recipients who posted up their crappola.

Thanks threepiece.

well, I got.... crap!

2 iguys (for ipod minis)
1 batman soap
3 easyfit logitech headphones connectors
1 frog water leak detector
1 backpack

Of course none of this I can possibly use (well, maybe the soap), but it was still fun I guess. All in all I probably got $5 worth if stuff, which factoring in shipping means I just about broke even. Woot still probably made out though (which they said they would, so no hard feelings there).

1- Little Executive Briefcase
0.5 - Snackdaddy Tray Bottom (black)
0.5 - Silica Gel packet
1- Chinese Red Backpack
1- Kensington wireless mouse

First crap. I'll always remember it fondly.

Got ours today...four days ahead of original deliver date. After many attempts, this is our first success at getting random crap...here's what we got..
1 red backpack
3 logitech connectors
3 logitech mice
2 iguy
xbox game (spanish edition)

Got my crap today. I have to say this was my best crap yet.

1 - Chinese Backpack (red +black)
1 - Rat Fink (citrus scented) Air Freshener
1 - Black Snack Daddy Wing Tray - I actually almost bought this when woot was selling them. I'm going to go cook me some wings now!

and my personal favorite

1 - C-Car Car locating key chain - "No Electronics, No Batteries, No Problems!" I will never lose my car again now!!!

Like I said my best crap yet. Can't wait till the next one.

Hi all, totally forgot about keeping up in this thread until last night, when I noticed my packages were within arrival distance (maybe this weekend). I just have to say Nice Placement in this picture!

1 - Red and Black Backpack
1 - Matching Red SnacDaddy
3 - Connector thingys for Logitech headsets (???)
2 - iGuy iPod holders in white, complete with butt cheeks
1 - Miracle Beam brand Super-Lite LED Keychain with Ergonomic Design, Super Bright, Super Small, Super- Lite that "provides over 100,000 hours of trouble-free use", batteries included! Wowee; struck the big jackpot with this one! It has to be worth a whopping $0.99! Oh.... and the package says it's FDA approved.... Maybe it's for a do-it-yourself colonoscopy or something....

I got my Blinged-Out Cabbage today. It came a day earlier than scheduled.
Here are the contents:

1x SnacDaddy Wing Tray (Red)
1x IGuy White
1x Beatles Yellow Submarine glow in the dark Blue Meanies pack
1x Red Backpack
1x Screaming Monkey with Green Woot Cape

Oh woot. You funny, funny woot. Got my crap today. Last one really was c-r_a+p so I had high hopes for something better this time.

Well.... I got my red backpack, black snack daddy ufo and a junior executive attache toy, then, THEN.....

Could it be? YES! A Yukai PVR-H240 personal media center as seen here:

http://www.woot.com/Blog/BlogEntry.aspx?BlogEntryId=2541

Woo hoo! Excitement fills the house for every bit of 5 minutes, then I remember... this is woot.

Wife grabs the box and opens it. Definitely used, she says, while pointing out a large dent/gash on one corner where it's obviously been dropped from an altitude no electronic device should ever be dropped from.

She digs further and finds a scuzzy set of in-the-ear headphones that really, really look used. While she's throwing the ear plugs across the room and throwing up in her mouth, I try to turn the unit on. We have picture! Woohoo again! An EA (electronics arts?) frame from one of their football games. Go Green Bay Packers!

Then "initializing" appears at the top, and stays, and stays, and stays some more, until the unit eventually turns itself off. I go through this process several times while trying to press buttons to keep it from timing out. Also tried the whole paperclip reset several times.

Meanwhile, back at the box my wife has found the power adapter. Hey, this looks funny. Uh, it wouldn't if we were in Europe. It's one of their plugs. Then, putting two and two together, she mumbles something about French ear wax.

Web has been no help and it's getting late so I'll have to play another day. Not a lot of hope, but even if this is a brick, still... BEST WOOT CRAP EVER. Thanks woot!

p.s. My wife also thanks you for not sending another Rat Fink.

(my apologies to all French wooters - it was just the first country that came to mind - really, I'm sure your ear wax is lovely)

Woohoo!

Just got my Bandolier of Carrots...
The red / black backpack
Miami Vice car
patty tray
And a Archos PMA430.

The unit screens have no 'words' - only squares. So like what I'm guessing should say video just shows blank squares in place of letters. I tried the PMA400 Recovery from http://www.archos.com/support/download/software.html?country=us&lang=en , but no go.

EDIT: After my 3rd reinstall, it's up and running, and now even with OpenPMA!

http://www.openpma.org/

Yeah it finally came!!! We even did a Woot dance upon it's arrival...

1~red and black backpack
1~package of silica gel
1~Mr T story/LP
1~Snacdaddy in red
2~iGuys (one big, one little) I LOVE the butt cheeks
3~logitech connector things

Not too bad for my first bandolier of carrots...

1X standard red chinese love sac
1x poulty death dish (red bottom , black top)
1x 6 gig jumpdrive (which I can totally use)
1x andre the giant 1980's action figure with moveable arms and legs


woot so worth the 7$

our crap= red backpack, flushing toilet ashtray, wing tray and solar powered indoor/outdoor table lamp which we need and i was really happy about getting until i discovered it had clearly been run over by a forklift or something. great idea to just toss it in the Braille on Cookies pile woot! thanks for the potentially hazardous mess of broken glass and twisted metal! seriously crappy crap!

1 x red and black backpack
1 x atomic travel alarm clock
1 x RalliSport Challenge 2 xbox game, in Spanish
1 x Mr. T read along book with record
6 x snack daddy bottoms, with no tops

I think I'm going to refer to the BOC as a Box Of Cats. The reason being that it reminds me of Schrodenger's cat: Inside is the there is the possibility of crap or treasure and it won't be cast in stone until we look.

Anyway our Bag O' Cats was exactly par:

- Qty: 1 Red/Black LBOD (lead backpack of doom)
- Qty: 1 Dead Battery (or DOA) timer of the Atomic Age Watch
- Qty: 1 Who's your Snac-Daddy (Noir)
- Qty: 1 Rat Fink Bobble-Head car dashboard Air Freshener (for use next to Hula Girls and Mary)
- Qty: 1 Silica packet (eddible)
- Qty: 1 Woot box filled with dashed hopes and withered dreams

Here's the pic of my my first Bandolier of Carrots!!

Sad, I can't even get mine to power on. The battery's charged, but I have yet to look online for help.

My first Blinged-Out Cabbage (woohoo):

Standard issue red and black backpack
Standard issue SnakDaddy (Black)
Standard issue Rat Fink air freshener
Navman R-300 sports GPS speed and distance thingie

The Navman thingie only seems to display in Klingonese though I haven't really fooled around with it much but I suspect the display is faulty but at least it turns on.

Try a reset - pinhole on the bottom of the unit.

I just got my Blinged-Out Cabbage! in it was:

red/black backpack
RED Snackdaddy
bar of moisturing batman soap
and...

ROOMBA! woohoo! thanks woot!!!

Got mine today finally. Pictures to follow.

I didnt get and wing tray or atomic watch.

1x red and black backpack w/ silica gel
1x Mr T story/LP
1 x RalliSport Challenge 2 xbox game, in Spanish
2x iGuy
3x logitech connector thingies

1x brand new unopened Nokia 770 internet tablet, not sure quite all i can do with this but worth $8

Inside my red and black crap-pack was one and a half SnackDaddies, a space shuttle christmas ornament, and some weird car locator thing. Yay!

My cat is now happily playing with the big box everything came in.

I tried that...no luck...I've also spent much of the night taking it apart and trying to diagnose the problem...there's a short somewhere, but I need my multimeter and torx fittings to get closer to the answer. I'm also following a How-To describing how to improve the wi-fi by replacing the antenna.

ok...

I got charged $8. fine

I got my package.

3 things

Backpack/snackdaddy/broken watch

NOW, shouldn't there have been another object in thar? Am I wrong here?

I live in Muncie, IN. Belleville to Muncie is about a 4 hour drive. We'll see if it shows up today or tomorrow and then start the "let's find it" ball rolling.

Ye-ha! Got my first Bandolier of Carrots.
Standard Red backpack- it's actually pretty nice
Red snackdaddy- two red tops with one base
Vector rechargable flashlight.

Pretty good considering I ordered only one (I am lame).

Six days of sortation in Wisconsin, and on to OHIO

When I got home from work yesterday, there was a HUGE box on my porch. I didn't remember ordering anything that large lately...and then it hit me....it must be my CRAP!!!





So what could be in a box like that? Certainly not a tv...and it was heavy...maybe a Robosapien? I opened the box and saw the 'Bag' part of my Blinged Out Cabbage....and then I saw this:





Another box!!! and it's the right size for a Roomba!!! Yeah!!! That's when I took the box out and found this:





So....what did I get? What was in the box?





1 - Red Backpack
1 - SnacDaddy tray
1 - Sima Radio Controlled Watch (battery not included)
1 - Disguise kit
1 - Gourmet Coffee Cafe' (and yes, the coffe, tea AND espresso pod holders were missing)

While it was not a Roomba, I still think I made out pretty sweet. I'm going to look and see if I can find the pod holders anywhere...or if any of you got the pod holders and no machine, I'd be more than willing to pay you the cost of your crap to get them.

Thank you Woot!
