You could check earlier. They were up over seven hours before you posted this.

Or would you rather Woot contact you and only post deals when you are ready?

My dad is a retired military pilot, and was pinching pennies long before it became fashionable.

That said, the only sunglasses I have ever seen him wear are Rayban. Some he was issued, some be bought himself. He wore them just about every day (he actually didn't wear them when flying much, the helmets have tinted visors built in).

I never really asked him why he liked them so well, but know him well enough to know that if he was willing to pay for them, they were a superior product, otherwise he would have bought cheapies at the five and dime.

My daughters optician puts some clear nail polish on the screws before they are screwed in, and this keeps them from loosening up for quite some time.

they're all sold out so what's the discussion about anyway?

Wouldn't you know it. Just when I kept checking the eve of every Woot night and slept early Thurs and missed this Ray Ban Woot...crap!

I was in for an RB 3025 Aviator hunt for so long with the orig G-15 XLT lens and this middle-of-the-road 55mm, slightly "oversized look" I think was the ticket. Though the lens color of the gold 3025 wasn't my cup of tea,...so I don't feel that bad I missed it, really.

Anyways, I got a pair from fellow Amazon affiliate Zappos last night (this my 2nd Aviator, my first was an amber photochromic glass lens from the '80s with the then "Made in USA" and glass etched "BL", by the original manufacturer Bausch & Lomb). I instead went for the smaller RB 3044 52mm (same size as my 1st pair), appropriate actually to my smaller face. $89 ($1 cheaper than Woot shipped), free overnight shipping & free returns (should I change my mind) for a YEAR...and comes with the lens I'm looking for, the G-15 XLT.

Has anyone who ordered these received their glasses? I have been tracking these for over a week with no updates. Supposedly they were shipped on July 30th but fedex said they were never picked up. Just curious if anyone else is having this issue...

Yeah mine are showing "Anticipated ship date" of July 30, but here we are a week later and no updates at all.

What's the deal, Woot?

Have any of these actually shipped?

This is insane.

Ordered these glasses on 7/26/12. Card got charged on 7/26/12. Order got "processed" on 7/30/12. Glasses still have not be sent. Just shows in the intiated stage which means that they sent the shipping information to FedEx but it has not been recieved by FedEx.

Are these glasses ever going to be sent or what? service@woot.com has been no help at all.

Just got an email stating that it has shipped and will arrive August 14th. One day under 3 weeks to get my sunglasses. Probably be the last thing I ever buy from Woot.

Finally on their way! I admit, I was a bit upset about the time on these as well, but I don't think it's any reason to boycott Woot.

This is the first time i bought from woot, and I was honestly thinking I got scammed out of my money when the customer service didn't reply back to my first email and they weren't shipping my order. Anyways, the order has shipped, and the only thing that could make this experience worse is if I get the wrong pair of glasses! The only time I'll ever buy from woot again is if I have time to sit and wait..

I gotted mines! I are happeh. :3

I love my new Ray-Bans. It was a bit of a wait, but they wook mahvelous.
