Well they have more than 10% to go in less than 2 hours. I think it'll be close enough not to make much of a difference.

Hmm, to drop from 40 to 30 it took half an hour. But only 2 minutes from 30 to 20. If it keeps up this pace, it should be done by now.

board sure got quite after that jump

Test this on one of those extra clear discs you get when you buy cd's...Orange-solve will remove permanent marker without disolving the plastic. The foil layer is sandwiched so no worries there, just don't melt the plastic :D

Rubbing alcohol removes permanent marker.

You can try and take some rubbing alcohol and see if it comes off with that...

You can try something like CD-Doctor, a CD buffering thing. They are about $30 at Wal-Mart and will gently buff out any scratches on any CD's or DVD's. Don't know if it will help with this, but it is a decent investment even if it doesn't work.

And, to help you out, you can write on the little lip just around the inside of the hole in the middle. It's not much room and if you have bad eye sight, maybe making one mark on side 1, two marks across from each other on side two, three marks at about 120 degrees apart for 3 and 4 marks at 90 degrees for side 4. Just a thought.

Soooooooo close to being gone! C'mon baby.

You know. After watching the video I'm thinking about all the useful things I could do with this car.

What has come over me?

Edit: YES! GONE!

I bet the next item flys out of here with all the pent up Woot Rage we all have:)

Yup, like everyone else said, rubbing alcohol first, and if that doesn't work, maybe invest in a Disc Doctor cleaning tool.

A lot of times, those discs will be labelled, but you have to squint to see it. It's usually on the inner ring of the DVD, in kind of tiny print.

Woohoo!! finally gone!

Go to your local eyeglass store and buy the lens cleaners that are like premoistened towlettes. Try one of those with a little pressure. That is what I use to remove perminant marker from things such as lexan. They smell like rubbing alcohol, but it's not. It may be some fashion of denatured alcohol, so if you have some of that lying around, you can give that a try as well.

I just bought 2 after convincing someone to buy one off me for 150$ so : $184.98-150 is $34.98 actual cost to me


$35 for stealth nanny cam/ functional RC car/ cat terrorizer, dog pisser-offer aint bad


whoo hoo just sold it out

Woohoo!! finally gone!

I wonder I know you...
Anyway,
the data is still there, the plastic that you wrote on is just a transparent layer. You just need to get rid of the ink without damaging the optical trasparency. I would say alcohol could be a last resort only. Did you try using a toothpaste to clean it. But don't be too hard on the marks, otherwise you might damage the clear layer...

How long does it take for the new woot item to come up or is the woot off over?
