Darn! Got to the "click the gold button" which I did and then a completely BLANK order confirmation screen. What's up with that??

One More Gimlet!!! I got one! My first Big ol' Cornucopia! I got so excited, I think I peed a little (but just a little).

Can't wait! What a tremendous rush! First, a denial because "something was wrong with the order" which there wasn't, then a long wait for the "buy it" button, then a long stare at the "your order is processing screen" (which is still up, btw, I'm too scared to close it down) and then, finally, 2 emails and a paypal entry! Woo Hoo!

Now time for a towel....

We're all suckers. Some of us just haven't been born yet.

Damn it, again too early for me.

Woot, some of us don't have computers at work you know?

Is hard enough to get even when I'm at home waiting for it, and the site slows to a crawl.

Pinged from Newark NJ, to Fort Worth Texas.

Interesting that the statistics on the 1st page show only 2486 sold, instead of the normal 3000.

So this might sound unbelievable but I just successfully scored that Bandolier of Carrots using my iPhone over Verizon 3G while stuck in grid lock.

YES, it can be done. I would never have thought it possible.

Got one! This is my 9th crap of bag. Took me over a year from joining woot in 2007 to getting my first one in 2008. Then almost an additional full year to get my 2nd. Had a great run of 5 bags in 2010, ending in August of last year. It took me over another year before finally scoring one last month and this one makes it two in a row.

A huge THANK YOU to the Woot Gods.

Strangest one yet, trackers hung, the previous item never showed up. Never say the Bountiful Overflowing Cornucopia Took a shot and hit buy, and got the order form, but never got the conformation page. I never got the normal trouble or delays. What a strange one this was. Feel like I never was really here. Almost makes be wonder, did we really have a Bountiful Overflowing Cornucopia today?

4th time "sold out".

grrr.



Same here, I got "there's something wrong with your order" page. I verified everything was correct. I have placed so many successful orders with this information in the past (including CVC #). I suspect something is wrong with woot servers and it just rejects orders randomly being overwhelmed by traffic.

I have sent a email to service folks, hopefully they will amend the glitch, cause I got that page twice.

(to be read like a "Dear John" letter

Dear Woot,

We've had our good times and we've had our bad times. You have introduced me to a world of worthless crap and for that I will be forever thankful. Unfortunately, you insist on playing with my heart but for whatever reason, I keep coming back for more. Something has to change. I can't take the drama and stress anymore. You are a tease and that isn't nice.

But who am I kidding? I will always love you and your Bountiful Overflowing Cornucopia Maybe we should start over and see how things go? I have faith that you won't disappoint me in the future.

Yours Always,
Me

I AVOIDED refreshing a million times. Clicked "I want one," added my security number, clicked "this is correct," waited... did NOT refresh. Order was confirmed in seconds.

So you all should hit refresh 1 million times so you don't get through next time and I do.



Meh it's just dumb luck. Myself and others and have tried the same tack and then lost out. You can be patient and wait, and wait, and wait, and then you miss out. That's the deal, there just isn't a single "better way", you either sit and wait at each screen hoping it will come up or in my case this time I refreshed multiple times at every single stage and finally got one. It's all dumb luck. Glad you got one though.
