Typically they sell one thing fairly cheap all day until it runs out. Every now and then they have a woot off where they dump all the stuff they have left over.

Now I know that a "woot-off" is something other than people being ghey with each other.

congratulations, you can buy a used tv in unknown condition for $175 less than retail, no customer support and basically no return.

Unknown condition? Woot always tells you the condition of the product and all their shit is compatible with Squaretrade warranties if you want one.

What about the pamphlet "The Onion.com: Fact or Fiction?"? You do have a need for that!

Can you only buy the current woot? Is this a bidding site, or do you just buy what is wooted? Once a woot is done being wooted, can you no longer woot the woot?

You can only buy the current woot. Normally it is the same thing all day until it runs out. During a woot off it changes whenever they sell out of the current deal.

Yes
ernest_t_bass;930081 wrote:Is this a bidding site, or do you just buy what is wooted?
You just buy what is available at the given time. It is $5 shipping regardles of the item, or whether or not you purchase one, two, or three of the item. So if an item is large (like a mattress), you can purchase 3 mattresses for $5 shipping.
ernest_t_bass;930081 wrote:Once a woot is done being wooted, can you no longer woot the woot?
Correct. Once an item is gone, it's gone. During woot offs, sometimes an item will appear more than once.

And they are typically factory refurb, which usually comes with whatever the normal factory warranty is.

Keyword: USUALLY. Some refurbs come with 90-days.
