Exactly. Couldn't have answered it better myself ;)

Ah I get up at 3:30 am, kind of tough to stay up till 10 for woot.

Oh believe me I check in at 4:30 most mornings, Got me one of these bad boys around 6-7 am left coast time.

Typically when I buy a Monday offer the wine-off starts that next Tuesday. Let's see how right I am tonight. Also there were some server issues not too long ago.

awwwww..... I actually have money this week and I missed it. So sad....

Uggghh. Was stuck in an offsite meeting all day with shoddy wireless. Could not complete my sale of 1 vertical, and it's sold out. Been playing tag with UPS guy since Thursday to get my Wellington club order, and now have to go to Denton to pick it up. Grrrrr. Not my best day. SAD.

Like when the Truchard tempranillo came up last summer and sold out while some right coasters were still making their morning coffee. That one went to west coasters who checked before turning in for the night got in on the offer and east coasters who checked the site in the morning.

Scarcity is part of the woot business model

True...but it's a very rare offer that would be sold out by 3:30am PDT. You could always subscribe to one of the many services that will send an email listing the new woot so you can check it first thing when you wake up.

Plus, now that ww is daily you'll get plenty more chances

Sorry you have to wake up so early!

If that's the case start buying more Monday wines.

late to comment, but never late to party!

just felt like adding to the massive amounts of praise for this label! 1 glass from the first offering (07 EnglandCrest Syrah that I just couldn't wait on...seriously the bottle made me do it!) I picked up was enough to consider Wellington's an autobuy...glad I got distracted at work and picked some up before it was gone!

This is already in-transit and will arrive in Ohio on Tuesday. Job well done WD and Peter.

One has a popped corked and is leaking from under the foil. Email sent to woot. sad to see such a good wine arrive bad. The other 2 appear to be fine.

Is it hot where you live? It's already 90 degrees here, so I'm getting worried about shipment issues.

I live in Albuquerque, however it has been fairly mild and consistent. Lows have been routinely 55 and highs around 85.

I have ordered plenty of wine from woot and only had a problem with 1 bottle. The woot staff is always top notch and took care of it.
