Do the 7 cables count as 1 item or 7? should i ask a question about it? or is this an "it is what it is" type situation?

In other news, my 7.7lber just arrived at my house. I'll update y'all on what I got tonight when I open it. (excitement builds!)

Apr 12, 2011 9:24 AM Out for delivery PHILADELPHIA, PA

Take that estimated Apr 14 delivery date!

gteston wrote:I got totally skunked on my first Big o' Cosmos (Level 4 2.1 lbs).

1x black and white recycled bag
1x monkey keychain
1x bathset


So, I hear they are saying the bathset counts as two items. That's like saying that a deck of cards is 52 separate items. I know we shouldn't complain and this is the risk we take for buying crap, but I think we deserve to get what we pay for. There should be at the very least 3 different crappy items.

I got the same response. Seems kinda ummm crappy if you ask me. Does that mean a 500 piece puzzle counts as 500 craps? You shouldn't have to open something and count the pieces in the box to see how many craps it counts as.

codex wrote:My box (Level 8) arrived yesterday, but I outsmarted myself--I had it shipped to the office, then had to stay home with a sick baby and missed delivery.

FedEx had been tracking it as 17.1 pounds; I never got the dimensions to display. I walked into my cube this morning to find a 12x12x18 box wedged in my chair...the office scale weighs it in at 8 pounds, 4.5 ounces.

So this morning's unboxing revealed:

• 7 - bags of the obligatory Texas air
  
• 2 - recycled tote bags, suitable for bag lunches or hostess gifts
  
• 2 - pairs of 180s earmuffs (men's black)
  
• 3 - Nûby Natural Touch bottle drying racks
  
• 2 - 6-packs of Woot! TrueFire cedar grilling planks
  

Multiples day, apparently. Not a bad haul, altogether. And at least I have some use for at least one of the bottle-drying racks, seeing as how I have a baby and all. Looking forward to trying out the grilling planks, oneathesedays.

My 8.3 lb level 3 crap had the same, except only 1 recycled bag instead of 2. Only I have zero babies. As I live in south Texas, the ear muffs will be a funny thing to put on my cat, the cedar planks might get used, and the bottle holders will go sit with the boob sucker I got last crap. Meh, I know the commandments, but I'm still waiting for my awesome sauce box full of random electronic goodies...

It says 1 lbs / 0,5 kgs, but why would I need such a big box: 14 in. x 10.5 in. x 8.8 in.

:/

I am in Ohio as well and my date was just shifted from tomorrow to Friday.

My level 10 1.1 lb box just arrived. The contents were, in no particular order

1x Flying monkey keychain
1x Black and white striped tote bag
1x Woot calendar
2x 6" long USB Extension Cable Type A

could have at least sent a sansa usb cable that people got 9 of

My level 8 8.5lbs of crap came, I got the wood planks, the ear muffs,nubby dry rack and the crap bag seen here...

I can't use any of it, but I am still happy I got crapped on. I would trade for the monkey keychain in a heart beat lol... though I aint dealing with the shipping monsters again.

My Level 8 Big Orphaned Cetacea left Hutchins, TX three days ago and hasn't been heard from since. It's listed as 1.0 lbs with no dimensions and is coming via FedEx Home Delivery. It's scheduled to arrive on Thursday. Perhaps it took a right in Albuquerque.

I emailed them a few minutes ago and this was the response I got. I'm a happy camper again!

Tracking data should be sent to you via automated email when it is available. If you need any further assistance, please don't hesitate to contact us. I apologize for any inconvenience!

I. Thou shalt expect nothing beyond ONE bag of some kind and THREE crappy items.

This is what he's complaining about specifically.

Do the 7 cables count as 1 item or 7? should i ask a question about it? or is this an "it is what it is" type situation?

The way I see it, you got 1 bag and 8 items by Woot!'s terms.

Can't wait for you to receive a small envelope with a penny in it.

But, maybe the people who got short-shipped will end up with something awesome. All part of the fun that is the crapness.

Delayed two days and shrunk a pound, but I'm still damn excited :3

gteston wrote:I emailed them a few minutes ago and this was the response I got. I'm a happy camper again!

I'm guessing that different service reps are giving different responses then to the missing crap question then. :S

Note above I said Nubby drying rack, I should have said we got 3 boxes of them. So I definitely got my woot value.

Box arrived at work today

I received
2x cedar grilling planks - That are currently working well to improve the air quality in this general area (old lady perfume an isle over spills over the walls)

2x Tabletop Tripods - may drag one of the with me to Cedar Point or Kings Island this year to take some pics of the minions riding some rids.

1x bag - its a bag

1x iphone 3 or 3gs case - Bandshell brand its thick but its flat on the bottom so you can stand up the iphone for better sound if you are playing mp3s.

3x sesame street zipper pulls - My minions are too old for these so I may just have to attach them to peoples bags around here at work (without telling them)

Seems to me like no one is getting really great stuff. Is there usually so much repetition? I haven't heard of any letters. And just one monitor so far as a bonus good crap. I knew I probably wouldn't get anything good, but it was fun to hear everyone else's experiences in the last craps. The lack of good crap is a buzzkill. I should have mine tomorrow, we'll see what I get.

Anyone with a Level 9 crap get it yet? Mine was due to show up tomorrow... but decided to detour to Friday.

modru2004 wrote:got mine today. i got the keychain screaming monkey with woot cape, a jc pennys lampshade still wrapped with the tags still on it ($40 it says on the tag) and a black and white stripped recycled bag.

im going to attempt to get a "refund" at jc pennys for the lampshade.

I ended up with the lampshade as well. Any luck returning it?

I received by Level 6 Big o' Cosmos yesterday. 4.6 pounds of joy containing:

16 - bags of Texas air
1 - iDealPak 8-in-1 value pack for iPod
1 - 250GB Hard Drive for older version XBox 360
1 - Eyeclops projector carrying case
1 - small black and white floral tote
2 - remanufactured ink cartridges for Epson Stylus printer (one cyan, one black)
1 - 2 CD set of Favorite Bedtime Songs from the babygenius series

I've tried to post this twice (once with a picture) and for some reason the Woot! gods keep rejecting my submission

For what it's worth -- it seems like all the camo snuggies have a little book light hidden inside, must've been part of the deal since my snuggie was fully wrapped like new but still had the little boxed booklight included.

Exceptionally crappy crap as follows:
1 x camo snuggie (with booklight)
1 x black and white tote
5 x sandisk cables

My dad received the exact same crappola.

Got My lvl 1 on friday but forgot to post.

Havent seen anyone get what i got though.

1x striped bag that every one got
1x screaming monkey key chain
1x laptop spindock
1x headphonie figure

I like the headphonie, It like one of those munny toys but has a speaker built in. Wish i had got 2 so i can do stereo sound, but sound is still decent from the one headphonie

Doesnt look like my first post got posted so here goes again.

Box showed up at work today and here is what I got.

2x Cedar Grilling planks - Looks like there are 6 in each one. These are currently dramatically improving the air quality around the cube area. (old lady perfume in the next isle can be a killer)

2x Tabletop Tripods - This one looks pocket sized and folds up well. Ill drag one of these with me to Cedar Point or Kings Island this year to take pictures of my minions riding some rides.

1x iphone 3 or 3gs case - Bandshell brand - thick case but on purpose so you can stand it up on end to listen to music.

1x opened and possibly used plantronics ear buds with microphone - Thanks woot I dont mind helping keep your trash can volume low.

3x Sesame Street Elmo zipper pulls - My minions are a little to big for these, so Ill probably attach them to peoples laptop bags around work (I see no reason to tell them about my random kindness)

1x zebra bag - its the bag

Overall its a good haul for level 1 crap.

I thank the woot overlords and cant wait to do this again soon.

Where can we go to trade stuff? I have:

1x Eyeclops Projector Case

and

2x Grilling planks

and am looking to start a screaming monkey collection!

(Yes, that was my entire Big o' Cosmos. The planks came in the same box... does that count as 2 craps??)

9.2 lb box arrived today two days ahead of schedule.

1 recycled PET tote bag $2.00?

If you were to buy this stuff FULL blown retail its around $110. Realistically you could get all this for about 50 bucks Id bet.

Still its awesome cause it only cost me 8 bucks. Thanks Woot!

I'm still anxiously waiting my first ever Big o' Cosmos... level 7, 2.4lb, crap. It was initially supposed to arrive here in Ohio today, but it got pushed back until tomorrow.

Also, is this a normal message to see for a Fedex shipment: 12:00 AM "Shipment information sent to U.S. Postal Service."

Well... got mine:

2x 6pc cedar planks
1x Snowman ornament w/ photo frame
2x black 180 earmuffs
1x black and white tote bag
1x huge box of ULTRA E-X-P-A-N-D STRAWBERRY REUSABLE BAG

The last one really throws me. It's a box of maybe 40 strawberries that unfold into a 16" tote. Never seen anything like it on here, that's for sure. May qualify as my weirdest "win" yet.

EDIT: Well, that link didn't exactly work, so I re-uploaded and changed the link, heh.

Level 8 2.4 lbs

1 x Nancy Kerrigan Topps Card
4 x Sandisk USB cords
1 x Bag
1 x Camo Snuggie with a booklight inside

Even though i haven't much use for it, it was very exciting opening my first Big o' Cosmos box!! Its my husbands Birthday today, i think ill add a Camo Snuggie to his gifts!
