** IMPORTANT NOTE ** This is NOT a Bag o' Crap! Seriously.
Fresh from our junk drawers to you! Your Woot Locker will come with a myriad of items, most of which we just found lying around the office, or warehouse, or Latvian rummage sale. The only way to know what’s going in the box is to watch our Woot! Twitch stream on 5/24 @ 11am CT. Is that a stuffed unicorn? Maybe. Is that a brand new Instapot? Could be. Is that an old empty can of Dr. Pibb? YES.

Questions (Because we know you guys always have questions):

Is this a BOC?  No. Did you even read that hideous gold box?

What do I do?   Watch the Woot! Twitch stream on 5/24 @ 11am CT. The price starts at $100,000, and we will add something new to the box every 30 minutes or so. The price will go down throughout the stream until we get to a price that someone wants to actually pay for it.

When can I buy it?  It’s up to you to choose when and if to buy it. Do you buy now or wait to see what else might be added? Decisions, decisions.

What will I get?  Whatever we throw in there. Literally anything. Could be a sandwich wrapper, could be a new 100-watt receiver. Could just be the banana, until we throw something else in there. Remember, WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET.

How many are available?  There's only one available at this time.

Are you sure this isn't a BOC?  We promise this is NOT a BOC. That's why it's not called a BOC.

Will I get that big box?  First of all, the industry term is “Gaylord”, not “Big Box”. Secondly, no. We will repackage the items in an appropriate-sized cardboard containment system.

What if I just click “Buy” to mess with you guys?  Tough luck there, hombre. When you purchase, you get whatever is in the box. If you look at the Twitch Stream and see a single banana in there, that’s what you just shelled out for, you vainglorious putz.

Once I get it, can I return it?  NO. THERE ARE NO RETURNS AND NO REFUNDS. CLICK THE BUY BUTTON AND YOU'RE GETTING WHAT'S IN THAT BOX, AND YOU'RE KEEPING IT.

No plans to bid, but will definitely be watching the stream. This seems fun (at least more fun than work).

You mean we should not put together 10,000 DDers who pledge $10 a piece (i.e. the BOC price)?

The price will be dropping throughout the event. No need for tons of us to group up

Plot twist: It's a plastic banana.

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

Price is now $2,000, which is about $1990 more than I would pay.
