ok... let's say i hit the I WANT IT button and by the time i pay for it.. it is gone. I get a message that someone might be denied and I will be first in line. Am I automatically charge for the item if that happens, or do they send an email, telling me first? Do they ask me if i still want it, or am I stuck with it?

If you have your CC information stored, you will have to enter the number you want, and your security code for your CC.

I was doing paypal.

Then as long as you enter the quantity you want and click okay, or whatever the confirm button is, you are good AFAIK.

You will get a confirmation email later.

Even the vac...

Went to go ask my wife if she wanted it, but it was gone by the time I returned.

What a nice husband 🙂

I like household gadgets too - better than an unpowered broom =)

Happened to me with the HD enclosure. Oh well, if they do send me one without asking me first, so be it. I wanted one anyways.

Well, if you get an email that says you bought something, you got it. Your place in line was only for this Woot-off, not the next sale of the same item.

They might have Blinged-out Cabbage at some point. Maybe my Bushel of Carrots will have a 61" DLP in it.

CAPS FACILITATE THE EXPRESSION OF THE ALARMED NATURE I POSSESS DUE TO THE SELLING OF SOME CRAP XM THING
