Sansa back in the day! But that was purchased using someone else’s account.
But I was very proud of my first purchase with my account… I still remember the day…
Here’s a screenshot.

Sept 2006. My first three purchases:
For the current gen systems at the time!
(“Compatible with PS2, Xbox, Xbox 360 and GameCube”)
Couldn’t pass up getting 3 for $0.01 each. I was too stupid to realize the $5 shipping killed the deal!
(The first 3 steps under “How to install” were crucial.)
Oh, the good old days! You could buy 3 at a time for $1 each, and were ridiculed if you tried buying fewer.
(Then again, they did often send out literal garbage in those BoCs! Once, I got a baggie with three Sansa MP3 players, all of which had a smashed screen and wouldn’t charge/power on. Fun times!)

I think I bought two or three Zunes on here. Those things were great and ahead of their time.

Sep 28, 2004: Bag O’ Crap II
I remember the original Bag O’ Crap. As I recall, it didn’t sell out in the 24 hours it was available (it was one product per day back then). Seems like Woot! oversold the crappiness of it, so I passed. People didn’t start to get excited about buying crap until those that received the first one posted their lists of crappy treasures in the forums. Over the years I’ve scored more than 20, and only a very few were total crap.
More than anything, I miss the old daily podcasts.
My biggest regret was being too slow to score Pig on February 1st, 2007. It still sits there in my order history with a DENIED status. Okay, maybe not my biggest regret, but it’s the biggest one that openly mocks me.

History sez: just over 11 years. There are people who’ve been around longer, but I think I’m justified in saying y’all can just step off my lawn now.

April 13 2007. Guess I’m an OG. It was a Sandisk Sansa e140 1GB MP3 Player. That was a lot of scrolling to figure that out.

Since the dawn of time…
…when the old ways were still known.
In fact*, the Big Bang was the sound of a stone tablet falling out of my first BOC.
*“Fact” is used here in a purely literary sense. No facts were actually harmed in the production of this post.
