My Balogna On Crepe's (I'm fancy what can I say) came in yesterday. It was a hefty 8.1 pounds. It contained:
A keypad
a 3-d camera
a gold's gym bag
5 brain game calendars


otterific stuff, praise the woot gods. I have been blessed. I don't care that it wasn't totally random, but I got my money's worth and it was my 1st one. Hope I get one next time.

My Bundle of Cabbage came earlier this week, but I was on a cruise to Alaska so I didn't open it until today. It was as advertised...c*r*a*p.

A fold up shopping bag
A puppet
Ipod Nano earbuds
Clique CVD

The shopping bag will be useful and I assume that the earbuds will work on my ipod classic, so, all in all worth the $8.

Thanks Woot!

Thats otterific!

Beautiful Ocean Cabana on a skid = POC (Pallet of Crap)

And yes... they are full of crappy goodness also!

My first crap!

Fairly standard from what I've seen, kinda...
1 Shopping Bag
1 nano lanyard headphone
1 clique dvd
1 flip (4gb)
1 toy walkie-talkie-type-pieces for a random kids game (I think - what game?!?)

I haven't seen the flip mentioned before, and I'm terribly curious what the walkie-talkies go with.

If there's actually a Flip in that box, I'd say your haul was far from standard, and pretty otterific.

Invisiblemoose wrote:If there's actually a Flip in that box, I'd say your haul was far from standard, and pretty otterific.

Yeah, there is. That'd be the 'kinda'... that and the walkie-talkie-toy-bits. Everything else was standard. But, yeah, the flip? I haven't seen any other comments about receiving one.

(just pulled it out to test) Yes, it works. Double-bonus.

I'm undecided what I'm doing with it, yet. I have another device capable of 720p video.

Definitely a good first haul. I'm sure next time I'll end up with 400 boxes of calendars.

Some of the highlights are:

6 Spykee robots
4 5.1 Surround sound speaker sets
20 Golf clubs (mostly Nike/Wilson putters, but 2 Callaway fairway woods too)
1 Home theater system (Panasonic, slightly damaged)
1 Baby walker thing (lol)
Many Dragonfly helicopters
1 nice toolbag
1 Golf club mailbox
1 telescope (nothing too fancy)
50 Badminton racquets (yes, for real)
1 Wine rack
1 Bread maker
1 Coffee maker.

Pics to come...if I can figure out how to put them up >_<

EDIT:

In the original box was 1 set of baby clothes, 3 bottles of spices, and 1 breathalyzer...and 2 winewoot bags

original box of crap was 2.2 lbs.

I'd be willing to buy some of those clubs off of you! :D


edit: To be specific I need a putter, any wedges, and woods.

I'll trade you it for two wine bags an ActiveAir scent diffuser thing

Woot owes me a lovely bunch of coconuts for posting a video if my Beautiful Ocean Cabana reveal.
Sniff, sniff.....

I'm double gauche, then.


Gave the Nano thingys to a buddy of mine.

My daughter will give the Barbie stickers to our goddaughter and her sister when she babysits next time. Can't put a value on that.

Nice work Woot!

Congrats! That's so otterific - keeps the hope alive for future Woot Offs!

Ooh - idea: you could host a badminton tournament with free bread and coffee. Everyone gets to keep their own racket and the winner gets the baby walker. And the baseball card.

I'm curious too - do the walkie-talkie things have any lettering or anything on the back to give you any clues?

Got my crap!

texas air
1- eazy shopper bag
1- The Clique DVD
1- Brothers in arms action figure
1- Teen titans cinderblock paperweight - basically just a cartoonish paperweight for a desk..
1- ipod nano ear buds

Not the best I've ever gotten, the DVD will go to my cousin the EZ shopper will come in handy at the supermarket and they toys will go to the salvation army.

Thanks woot!

Me too. Wow, Beautiful Ocean Cabana twins!

rjtroester wrote:I'm curious too - do the walkie-talkie things have any lettering or anything on the back to give you any clues?

No, the backs are fairly non-descript. There are a total of 6 vertical bars, the center two having metal contacts to power the LEDs on the top of these things (one contact about the other, straddling two bars, not side-by-side); the remaining four are present or absent and simply represent the binary for 0-7 (so the game can know what's inserted)

This all looks slightly familiar, but I can't recall where I've seen it before.

Those look like they are the radio receivers for the little toy dumptrucks/cranes/trains that you can push small plastic balls around with. Sorry I don't know their name either. I just recall seeing them in a toystore somewhere.

Carp came today. As I stated before, this was a replacement carp sent out cause original carp got lost. I got:

A digital camera tripod

A slinky jr.

A pair of disney kid ear buds

and

THE HIGHLY COVETED RANDOM CRAP QUESTION MARK BAG!

Not bad. Still wonder what was in the original box that got lost.

Thanks woot!

threepiecewoot did you ever send someone this..

this crap has been a tease. where are the pics of the POC??

Haha that's fantastic!!

Here are the pictures of the letter, the PoC, and all of the golf clubs. If you guys really want to see the rest of the crap I'll take more pictures and upload them.

Edit: seems like image shack doesn't want to work for me...

I have 2 nice Callaway Big Bertha woods I could sell to you for about 50 bucks each plus shipping (I think they retail for around 100). They are the 2007 edition and look very lightly used. One is a 5w and the other is a 3w.

And the rest of those clubs are putters - Nike (ic series) or Wilson (harmonized), although they all seem to be slightly different models. It seems like all of them are completely new. I think they go for around 40 retail so I'll sell them for 20 if you want one (or 7). I can't figure out how to PM you, so PM me if you want any and we can arrange. I'm willing to really cut you a deal because I really don't need any more golf clubs as I already have a good set .

THANK YOU!!! Been driving me crazy for the past couple days ;-)

Sent you a PM. I'd be interested in a putter if you have the right model.

Cool I'm gonna reply in PM. And for the record hit that little envelope icon near my avatar to access PM :D.

im pretty late to be commenting here, but after a fight with USPS and a Baggie of Cthulhu returned to woot hq, i have a replacement Baggie of Cthulhu on the way to my place arriving tomorrow. One question though, i signed up for myfedex to see the package info and it's showing 0.8lbs and no known dimensions for size.... any ideas?

My Baggie of Cthulhu was .8 lbs. Inside was a slinky jr, digital camera tripod, disney ear buds, and a paper random crap bag.

My box was also a replacement box, so I think it is likely we got the same thing.

I still have it. I'll put it in the next round and cross my fingers that someone will post that they received it. Thanks for the reminder.

Can you confirm the number of letters sent vs. the number posted? It is rather a letdown to know that there may have been more sent out than were posted.

P.S., TPW, the lovely bunch of coconuts link on page one has a broken URL :D

The USPS returned mine also. My weight and N/A dimensions are the same as yours, but mine isn't due until the day after tomorrow. I'm guessing it's going to be a question mark bag, a sticker set, and a lanyard. I'm hoping for something really absurd, like a half eaten pizza crust, a dried up ball point pen, and a Wham! cd.

I got a replacement Box Of Cheese for the Woot B-day. Same thing, it was really small, < 1 lb. replacement for a 23.1 lb. package. It was quite a letdown. I wanted a 3D camera! Better you get the same thing as everybody else, at least you already have ideas for those things. Too bad they don't try to make good for those who had to wait longest.

Oh yeah, and, Hammer, don't hurt 'im!
