REALLY?

Damn. I might spend $5 on that next time. And that current w00t is tempting.

This is impulse buying at its worst, and I like it.

Pretty sweet.

Too bad that by far the best speakers in the house are already hooked up to the PC, so I wouldn't get much use out of them.

[Edited on January 31, 2007 at 4:33 PM. Reason : looks like they have a ton of these too :/]

There are people on the message boards talking about getting PDA's and Xbox 360's

But it's more because they only cost $1 per item, and people just want to get something random.

[Edited on January 31, 2007 at 5:42 PM. Reason : just to see what they get]

seems like you need to have a woot tracker in place (or maybe an email/sms alert) to get in on those BOCs...sounds like they sell out within a minute. you'd also need to be already logged in and have your payment stuff in place.

talk about a woot killer... nobody wants a new 480p HD projector for 400 bucks, much less a refurbished one.

I bought that same projector for $700 a little under 2 years ago. And a replacement bulb for it 6 months ago for $300. That's not a bad deal.

Quote :
"Bag O' Crap

In lieu of typical product sales, Woot occasionally offers a blind grab bag called “Bag O’ Crap” (“BOC”). This includes dollar store items and may also randomly include more expensive electronics items. Customers may buy up to three bags for $1.00 each, as in the usual model, or on some occasions may only buy one $1.00 bag that comes with three bags' worth of gear. Customers are urged to purchase in quantities of three to minimize the percentage cost of shipping and maximize the probability of getting something of greater value. The "BOC" typically sells out within minutes of furious ordering, overloading the woot.com servers in the process as potential buyers frantically try to reload the ordering pages. This is considered to be part of the fun by most Woot forum members, but leaves many people angry and frustrated.

Officially, the Bag O' Crap is sold under the title of "Random Crap."

Since "BOCs" are often referenced in the Woot forums, Woot's forum software filters the text to spell out tongue-in-cheek phrases with the same initials, such as "Blinged-out cabbage", "Braille on Cookies", "Bandolier of Carrots", and others.

On April 1, 2007 as an April Fools Joke, the Bag O' Crap was offered for the price of $1,000,001.00 with the regular price of $5.00 for shipping. A coupon code ("please") was discovered in the product image and utilized by Woot users to receive a $1,000,000 discount on the BOC, thus reducing the price to the standard one dollar."



nevermind.

Its a mystery bag for 8 bucks. It can range from random ipod crap to a big screen tv. You never know but you always get stuff worth more than 8 bucks. It also sells out really quick.
