Yeah, I thought so, but it (Hasbro Power Air Surfer Radio Controlled Plane) sold out in an amazing 11 minutes.

 

[NuNuNYC]

everytime i go to w00t, the stuff is always sold out, how does one actually go about buying something from there?

 

[nordlaw]

Create an account, then check each weeknight at 12 CST; if you like it, buy fast. A Woot Out has several items in a row, usually.

 

[gshock888]

second one is quite tempting
