Do they ever even put up a Bucketful of Curmudgeons during a Wootoff any more? I never see 'em.

There are too many Woots to keep track of now. They've diluted their brand something awful.

The imposter monkeys were $1.99 each.
And, yes the "good" (original) monkeys were $1.99 each (plus $5 shipping.)

I guess this (100% price increase) is why we had the imposter ones for a while.

Woot is officially dead to me.

Annoying Woot-offs, no Big Ol' Cataclysm, and even crappier items than in the past.

Goodbye Woot.

Amazing! Thank you

Really? And do you know where your monkey is tonight?

The first line of the description says "yes this is the good monkey."

Take that how you will.

The head of the large monkeys was disproportionate to the body. I think these are the normal size since the head doesn't look huge.

Well... the other one during the armeged-off was 1.99... so hmmm... may be the bigger one... may just be more expensive... maybe the Big Ol' Cataclysm.. maybe just a price hike.

I'm just happy to finally see a monkey in a Woot Off I don't already have. In for one.

is it the end? there was a monkey last night also...

congrats, computermd82. I am sure it took lighting speed to be the "first sucker" on this deal. You have now carved out your place in history. LOL

In for three, going to take two friends to IKEA and shoot them all over the store! :P

I believe so, I remember reading somewhere that they are only doing it for facebook and twitter.

It's interesting, Amazon as a website is awesome, Amazon as the overlord of Woot is just terrible.

same feeling here except I'm sure you meant THREE right :p

I will go play with my original monkey that was $1.99 and the huge that was $4.99

I thought they were bred in captivitiy...

Well worth it. The masked monkeys sucked. I worked with the guys who supply Woot their monkeys (or at least the people who are on the tag) and ... yah - they were running out of the good ones. I had to get a lot of capless monkeys due to the shortage with their supplier. I would rather pay a bit more to get my good friends, then pay less and get the cousins we don't like to mention at family reunions ...

Thank you, ma'am.

I said I would willingly pay more to get the originals back. YAY! New monkeys!

Only the masked monkeys are "inbred" in captivity. Hence, their masks of shame.

100% agreed!

I can't afford to spank these monkeys.

Now I am really confused... I was told they were the ninja monkeys that only certain people could see... wait that doesn't make sense since you can't see a ninja so never mind.

I knew it was coming since they pulled the popcorn maker halfway through their stock. It went from 50-something percent left to Sold Out.

My one and only beautiful caped hooded screaming monkey is atop my xmas tree right now. Everyone should buy one to at least do that

Hmm I sense a woot video where the pimp shows up and pushes the monkey sale like those adopt a kid organizations.

Do you think the following monkey shirts will ever be offered again? Ours are showing the signs of constant wash and wear fatigue.

Ron,

They just offered those in a side sale a few weeks ago.

No Comment! Can not say less.

I didn't see them because I don't check on most of the side sales.

My dog (a Lab cross) loves these, and never breaks the "screamer".
My friend's Australian Herding dog (border collie cross?) loves the scream, then proceeds to crunch it to death. ET-death?= 2 minutes. I just got him another just to make him feel guilty again!

No Bandit Overrun City! Just three days of a crap-filled woot off. Good riddance!
