Self-Balancing Scooters, 5 Colors Price: $299.99 Shipping Options:: $5 Standard Shipping Estimates: Ships in 3-5 business days. (Wednesday, Nov 04 to Monday, Nov 09) + transit Condition: New
I bought one of these two weeks ago on Woot. It never came and Woot never updated anything. When I finally asked why FedEx is showing “Label Created” for 10 days I get an email saying there are some problems, but no ETA or explanation.
So - yes I bought one, but never received one. I just asked Woot to cancel my order.
According to some forum posts, the sale from two weeks ago had a few lemons and some may not have shipped yet. (I got mine but haven’t had a chance to try it yet. According to the vendor’s site, though, since I didn’t try it within 24 hours of its arrival, my warranty is void. It’s not much of a 1-year warranty if it’s a 24-hour warranty.)
[MOD: This is a different vendor than the first sale.]
Bought one the last time they were on woot, two weeks ago i think. No problems at all, works great, shipped fast (received mine in 8 business days), lots of fun.
Like you’ll figure out online, seems like this is same model that you see everywhere, same manufacturer from China.
Definitely worth the buy if you’re in the market. Great price since you’re not dealing with shipping from China and no customer support if you did have any issues.
Only word of caution is that this is the 6in wheel model, so dont expect to go over many bumps or obstacles. I’d recommend the 10in wheel model if looking for a more versatile scooter.
We have one of these at my office. They’re fun as hell to ride around on. Tough on the calves and shins after a while, but really fun. Not sure if I’d pay $300 to own one though.
I guess I don’t really understand what the point of Woot is anymore. These are cheaper on several other websites, including Gearbeast, which one of you guys listed above.
For 40 bucks more you can get the ten inch wheel version and that is a " non sale" price. I agree, Woot is not the DEAL site I once believed it to be just a typical outlet mall now.
