i'm convinced people use custom snipe style programs/scripts, that they persnally wrote and don't release, that get it done immediately.
I got three in a row and now the last 3-4 BOC's I haven't been able to even access the site. Something is definitely goofy. They need to change the ordering process or something. Not that I'm whining....
nice...i just wish i knew how to code something to automatically buy lol. i've seen the BOC screen, but i've never been able to purchase.
As for the deals...some are good, most are 'okay', and some are just horrible. it really depends on if you were looking for something - if there something I want, and woot has it, then i'm happy because its typically cheaper. But, lets say, a 22 inch widescreen refurb for 170 appears...its decent...but it isn't something I'd want to buy because I'm not in the market for one.
As for the USB pole dancer...i see those at frys lol...hilarity
and the laptop wasn't HORRIBLE per se....quite a bit of functionality (how many sub 500 laptops come with FIR and firewire connections?) for what you pay for. of course if you are in texas...then woot offs must suck since you have to pay taxes
