Shirt.Woot

Bleep bloop bloop bleep I am a robot.

First (and probably last) random woot ever. Took community advice and ordered three - hoping to get something good on an AA blank before they're all gone!! Would love to order Music is Life and The Tyger, but they are both printed on Anvil. Really wish woot had kept AA and simply raised the price another $1 or so. Anvil just doesn't have the same quality.

Thanks for pointing out that there's a special sale of an actual blurry shirt going on. I didn't see it posted and had no idea it was even going on. I was just excited to get 3 random shirts.

Notice how there are mysterious people who tell you to always buy 3. But NOBODY will tell you why!!

Last time I bought 3. You know what I got? 3 stupid T-shirts I didn't need that said something stupid on it. Thanks Woot. Plus a lot of SPAM. Not I get a weekly e-mail soliciting me to buy more T-shirts.

There is no benefit to buy 3. Nothing in it for you, other than 3 stupid T-shirts that you would never pick yourself. You get exactly what you pay for, nothing more, nothing less.

I actually got three shirts I liked last time. The partied out "ninja" turtle on a stack of pizza boxes, Atari graphic Ghostbusters trapping a Ghostmonster from Pac-Man, and the DeLorien crashing into the Tardis.

In for 3... again. I have never received something I wouldn't wear and typically get at least one that makes me !!!!!!

Would commit crimes for the Meatatarian shirt.

It's great and all, but I kinda wish they'd have some kind of check to make sure they aren't sending you a repeat. I have no need for a second shirt with the same design in the same size...

You can do laundry less often!

That's funny, because I have a Meatatarian shirt that I would probably commit crimes to get rid of. But it's a women's size (and user name tells me you're not into that).

Of course in for 3!! Hoping for some turtles this time around. ;)

Is it bad if my shirts haven't shipped and they are supposed to be in Indiana tomorrow?

Bought my first three from woot. Excited to see what I get.

Bought a few randoms from Yetee the other day and only liked one of them. Looking to sell or trade....where's the best place to do so?

Yes, I'll get my money back, eventually, but then I'm out the 3 shirts for my son, and out an awesome birthday present.

I ordered mine thinking these were printed on the new blanks (all this flip flopping throws me off) but I was wrong so I emailed service thinking it could easily be fixed since I emailed immediately but I was wrong again. I got a reply telling me I'll have to return both the standard shirts and the kid shirts in unopened packages for a refund. I went ahead and placed a third order with my husbands account so atleast I'll still get the the right sizes and can play the random game but had to pay for another order up front. I didnt bother with the kids woot shirts though, those I'll just be returning and not replacing.
You know once the shirts become consistant in size this wont be a problem. I for one cant wait for that day.

Hey so just curious, with mine Im not the least tempted to open the first set because they wont fit me so the design doesnt matter but for you, you're getting two packages of 3 with the same size that fits you. Which of the two will you open? What if the other package contains a shirt you would totally love and you choose badly? Wont that drive you nuts?

Thanks. I have been boycotting shirt.woot since you all left AA, however after reading this I am in for 3.

Oh Shazbot, I finally get a chance to sit down and order and all out of WL. The epic TEARS!

Next time I will be quicker!

Haven't fallen for the randoms in a while, but there are several shirts I regret not getting... and a couple that got lost in a air travel luggage snafu. So I'm in for either those shirts or trade fodder.

Curious: is the $5 shipping delivered by FedEx, or is it magically transfered to USPS like the slow shipping ... only faster?

Holy crap, my shirts are shipped already (non upgraded shipping). You have impressed me.

It's all good, the shirts left Texas 2 hours ago, I am relieved and happy.

sellbuyer92 wrote:Is it bad if my shirts haven't shipped and they are supposed to be in Indiana tomorrow?

I just got my tracking info maybe 10 minutes ago.

edit: And my smartpost tracking info now too. I wonder which will get to me first! (Smart money on FedEx)

I just lost 15 lbs so I was not about to go up a size. :-) If they are too small I'll just use them as motivation to lose another 10 lbs.

I wear an Anvil WL and before the switch I opted for MM and those fit well. I'm guessing that if the medium doesn't work, it will be darn close.

Congrats on the weight loss! I'm at about 5 down and each pound is a victory.

If you pay for overnight, FedEx delivers it.

in for 3 :3 my favorite time of the month and a 5 buck off coupon?! life is good

Several people in this thread have commented about 'last purchase...' - what's up?

Probably because everyone is trying to ride the AA train as long as possible before it blows up.

So at 1 am (EST) the woots pop up over here, and once I saw this I thought it might be the equivalent of like a Brick of Carbonite in a way, so I decided to jump on the opportunity to get 3 random woot shirts, hopefully I get some good ones.

I am DYING to get a 3X of "It Came Out of Nowhere"...I missed it....waaaaaaaaahhhh!!!!

I'm crossing mah fingers for a woot logo shirt...

Really? I have green men's medium if you have other MM sizes to trade.

azuremourning wrote:Yeah, I was on autopilot and ordered 3 for myself.

The issue with opening another account is that I've already done that, and ordered 3 3x shirts on that account too. I placed both orders last night, and realized immediately after placing the second order that I had chosen the wrong size. I don't have any other payment methods, so that solution is kinda moot.

The thing that really confuses me, is that I've made this mistake before, with a kids.woot shirt sale. I realized a week later that I had ordered k10 instead of k12. I offered to send the shirts back as soon as they arrived without even opening them. They sent out new shirts, and didn't even ask for me to send the old ones back. I'm not trying to get anything free out of woot, just what I meant to order.

And really, what's the point of the confirmation email if they don't/won't do anything to fix the problem until WAY after the fact.

How much of this started since Amazon got involved?

That's what I thought. :-(

first time buying from shirt.woot, in for 3!

sellbuyer92 wrote:Probably because everyone is trying to ride the AA train as long as possible before it blows up.

I hadn't bought any for a few months...when did all these changes happen? Upping the price then dropping the quality?

Randoms on a TUESDAY? What is this MADNESS? I've been checking religiously every Monday to make sure I don't miss out on buying AA randoms, and then Woot has to go changing things up again, selling randoms on a Tuesday instead. By the time I realized it, all the sizes that would even remotely fit me were sold out. WAAAH!!

Oh well. In for 3 to use as nightshirts, or possibly cut and sew into something that would actually fit. I'm hoping to get something good, since it may be my last random shirt buy, but I won't hold my breath. Most of the recent changes Woot has been touting have turned out to be rather disappointing, and as such, my expectations have dropped pretty low.

But ThunderThighs, thanks for confirming that these will be on AA blanks. You're still cool in my book. AND CLEARLY THAT IS IMPORTANT!

In for the 3.

Great post, CowboyDann!!!!

Still....I just bought 3 unknown t-shirts.
I don't know why....

LMAO that you got caught by your own word filter when you were using the phrase legitimately! =)

emeraldchickpea wrote:I hadn't bought any for a few months...when did all these changes happen? Upping the price then dropping the quality?

Early January for the price hike, then Feb 21 the blanks were started to be changed over to Anvil as stock depleted in most colors. Still a few left in AA.

Totally forgot to order before they disappeared! If anyone gets any MM shirts that they don't want, feel free to send me a message and I may purchase your unwanted shirt!
