Although SmartPost can be unusually slow considering I live with 15 miles of woot headquarters I would recommend them to anyone.","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/Woot\/review\/571959#comment571959","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/Woot.jpg","store_name":"Woot!","username":"scmtim","rating":"5"}, "single");){kind=link}

I made the purchase with nearly 3 weeks before I intended to give them as a gift and to my astonishment they did not make it in time! This day and age with so may exceptional e-retailers why would anyone continue to shop here? Not I. On top of that, no response to my customer service request.","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/Woot\/review\/571915#comment571915","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/Woot.jpg","store_name":"Woot!","username":"dragonbite","rating":"1"}, "single");){kind=link}
![Share](javascript:share_rating({"review_body":"Advise people to approach Woot.com with studied caution. I am skeptical about them. The founder\\owners present a story & image that raises suspicions in me, namely they say in one breath they are serious entrepreneurs and in the next they claim no profit from Woot and project an unreasonable future date they expect to be in the black. <br><br>I come from a family of self-made poverty (poor before welfare existed) to successful small business people. By choice, I hung with the adults from age 12. I learned from my aunts and uncles to suspect anyone who want you to believe they worked their tails off for perfect strangers. The \u0022I jus wanna be your friend\u0022 con\u0022 they called it. <br><br>More than suspicion, I had 30 years experience as an informed consumer & consumer rights advocate. I\u0027ve been researching Woot deal of the day items for a month now. Electronics is my main area of knowledge. I notice Woot picks brand name products that have an identified downside and Woot relies on something shoppers should view with caution, seemingly unregulated buyer reviews or comments.<br><br>Any retailer who had business savy & does their research knows that buyer product reviews or comments are powerful \u0022sales boosters\u0022, even if some of the reviews are very negative. Why? Few buyers practice responsible review writing or posting, very few. Most, about 95%, post a review almost immediately after receiving a product, opening the box and seeing it shinny and unbroken. Few use the product and then form an opinion. Meg Ryan at eBay figured this out several years ago.<br><br>Woot has an added feature. They encourage a legal pyramid scheme retailer type (Mary Kay, Shakley, Amway) group hype to their buyer\\member blog. Try to warn them about a product and they immediately fight you! <br><br>Here are some examples. A recent Sankdisk MP3 notorious for its one year life (non replaceable battery) & its difficulty to use was sold for a price lower than most retailers offer. This week Woot hyped a 32GB Kingston USB memory stick for a great price. It is notorious for being slow and for inconsistent performance. Sometimes Win XP, Vista, & Win & will not recognize it! <br><br>Try to caution members to research these items and you nearly get attacked by hyped up Woot members. If you want to buy things in a Price in Right Group Think tank be my guest but if you value your hard earned dollar, approach Woot.com with studied caution! <br><br>And hope you never need Woot customer service. There are mostly negative reports online about Woot customer service & Woot return actions.<br><br>UPDATE: I must alter my original view of Woot. I no longer suspect them of anything but trying to deliver both superior value and excellent customer service. My first experience with them caused me to be wary but after additional buys, all without mishap, I find Woot to be excellent. Woot is owned now by Amazon.com and I think I am seeing now Amazon\u0027s efficient shipping system at work.<br>The original founders and owners still independently operate Woot, Amazon simply owns and infuses capital improvements.<br><br>Make sure you know your products before you decide to buy a particular item from Woot. On 1-22-2011, I bought a Phillips<br>high speed 25\u0027 HDMI Cable for incredible price of $7.99 & $5.00<br>shipping. It arrived 2-1-2011, well within the Woot estimated dates.","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/Woot\/review\/571883#comment571883","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/Woot.jpg","store_name":"Woot!","username":"flatquasar","rating":"4"}, "single");){kind=link}
![Share](javascript:share_rating({"review_body":"I\u0027ve bought many things from woot and kids.woot and have been overall pleased with every item I\u0027ve gotten (well, the woot monkeys did make me wanna bash my head against the wall, but that\u0027s what I get for giving screaming monkey toys to my kids).<br>Order processing\/shipping is a little slow, so I wouldn\u0027t recommend buying anything you\u0027re in a hurry for. But it\u0027s tough to beat a flat $5 shipping fee.<br>I did have one experience (from a woot-off), where they didn\u0027t have enough of a toy car I\u0027d ordered - they cancelled my order, but gave me $5 off a future purchase. This was fine with me - the car was an impulse buy anyway and there\u0027s always other toys to buy (which we did later) and getting $5 off something else was great because I knew I\u0027d shop there again.<br>Be sure to do your homework a bit on products, the write ups are for entertainment, not so much for information. I try to look up offered products on other sites before I make a decision.<br>Woot-offs are such fun, but it\u0027s easy to get into a mob mentality and buy things just because they look good and you don\u0027t want them to sell out before you can get at them. I\u0027ve missed a few things doing my homework, but it\u0027s still worth it to check specs before hitting \u0022I want one\u0022<br>Overall, woot is awesome and I\u0027ve found some great deals. I highly recommend this site!<br>Oh, but if you see the BOC, don\u0027t buy it - I still need one!

![Share](javascript:share_rating({"review_body":"I have made nearly 100 purchases from Woot! in the past few years and have been exceptionally well pleased with this merchant. Their prices are the lowest on the internet and shipping is a flat $5 whether you buy 1, 2, or 3 items. For people unfamiliar with their site, it would be helpful to read other comments here or else read the \u0022What is Woot!\u0022 section at their website as they are not a traditional merchant. They make it clear that at their prices you cannot expect to receive overnight delivery of a replacement product from a dedicated customer support representative. That being said, on the 2 occasions I have needed to contact them, their support has been exemplary.","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/Woot\/review\/538823#comment538823","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/Woot.jpg","store_name":"Woot!","username":"majorblue","rating":"5"}, "single");){kind=link}

Once reprinted, they will be shipped.<br>Well, it has been about a month and a half now and they have not shipped...<br><br>If there is an issue with them sending out the orders, it seems the only way to get information is to hassle them for it. They are not proactive and post apologies or e-mail the customers without e-mailing them first.","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/Woot\/review\/533674#comment533674","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/Woot.jpg","store_name":"Woot!","username":"Wootshipping","rating":"1"}, "single");){kind=link}
![Share](javascript:share_rating({"review_body":"Woot! Best place in the world for random things! The t-shits are awesomely prices and the electronics deals can\u0027t be beaten if you happen to be in the market for that product.<br><br>I have only had 1 incident with Woot, and it panned out incredibly well. I bought shirts on random shirt day, as did my wife. The prices were listed at $10 each, which we thought was fine(even though it had been lower in the past). We both ordered 3 shirts and paid. <br><br>Woot decided that was a pricing mistake and credited us the difference, and threw in an extra shirt for free. The email from customer service about the matter is hard to describe (anyone who got the email knows what I mean). <br><br>Simple put, I wasn\u0027t even aware there was an issue and it turned into the best customer service experience I have had in years.","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/Woot\/review\/531356#comment531356","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/Woot.jpg","store_name":"Woot!","username":"duhh","rating":"5"}, "single");){kind=link}

![Share](javascript:share_rating({"review_body":"Woot is a one deal a day store. Essentially they sell one item a day at an extremely low price. Shipping is free.<br><br>I\u0027ve pretty satisfied with them and when they offer a product I need or want, it\u0027s at a great price. Shipping isn\u0027t very fast, but it\u0027s $5. For shirts shipping is free. They use FedEx SmartPost which is decent.<br><br>As with DOAs and such, I think many people don\u0027t understand that Woot only has so many items; they can\u0027t offer product exchanges because they don\u0027t have the inventory for it. They can\u0027t let people cancel orders because they can\u0027t relist products. It\u0027s now the system works. You\u0027re only suppose to buy no more than 3 of an item, so you can\u0027t buy more than once in an attempt to score a deal (and start you own business). That said, the one time I had an DOA, they gave me a refund when I asked about it nicely.<br><br>Woot is a great shop which offers excellent deals on days when I need or want the current item on sale.<br><br>I also love Woot-offs when they offer a small stock of each item and continuous refresh for a few days time.","link":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/Woot\/review\/519167#comment519167","store_thumb":"http:\/\/www.resellerratings.com\/store\/thumbnail\/Woot.jpg","store_name":"Woot!","username":"alphaod","rating":"5"}, "single");){kind=link}
