When I went to check on tonight's Woot, yesterday's item was still showing (after midnight), and the server was really dragging. Then when I refreshed, up popped the much wanted BAG! Clicked through to order in what seemed like internet tubes filled with molasses in January. Switched to quantity 3, entered my card security numbers, clicked through two more times to confirm the order, waited...waited...waited... no confirmation. Opened another browser window, went to Woot (got a few "Server is too busy" screens), went to my account info, and no crap showing up! :bawl:

The order status page still hasn't updated, so I'm just letting it sit in it's mostly blank ugly green state to see if I still might get an order.

[edit] After almost an hour, my account status shows that I SCORED 3 CRAPS! WOOOOOHOOOOOO!!!!!! :) :D

All sold out. Just my luck or I guess it could be just my luck. At any rate, we will never know now.

My story was about the same as Markel's, but at the end of my hour wait, it was SOLD OUT! BOC Denied...again!

Well, my 3xBOC arrived today:

1 Targus memory card case (pretty worthless - even as a "bag")

1 Purple Tootsie Pop porcelain hinged "box" (the tootsie pop opens up)

1 box of 10 (red) Nike Sport Armband for iPod Nano - pre-attached barcode tag says suggested retail $29. Anyone care to make an offer?

1 refurbished Targus 12-volt 5-cup coffee maker. I'm not getting my hopes up, as the last Targus item I got in a BAC (a lighter-plug inverter) blew smoke the first time I plugged it in.
