If the only opinions that matter are everyone else's, do you ever really have one of your own?

I don''t see any cables listed there they didn't lie. I see a t-shirt of a cable maker. But no cables.

I think they mean about the ilo. Supposedly it was stuff they had never sold on here before.

I remember that they did specify they were separating first time flingers from old timers. For old timers they did say new items never seen before. I can't remember all the other stuff though..
36 order #'s to date

1 helpdesk ticket waiting for the shipment
3 helpdesk tickets submitted and resolved Wink

The TF sales pitch wrote:
NOTE for REGULAR FLINGERS:
• You have never seen these items on ThingFling.
• NO cables
NOTE for NEW FLINGERS
• If you were waiting for the best time to join, try or play this is a HOMERUN!!!
• TF mystery is considered by ME the best MYSTERY around.


They are making a distinction between new flingers and regular flingers. All I've seen so far is first time flingers getting their MB. According to the sales pitch, there's isn't the never-before-seen items and no cables stipulations for new flingers, so anything is fair game for them and TF can throw in stuff they've offered before. After all, like they say in TV rerun season, "if you haven't seen it before, it's new to you!"

Sorry you're disappointed. If it was my first MB, I would think it was a good deal.

I didn't take the sales pitch to really be a distinction. I thought that they were assuring us regular flingers that it was something new, and the second part was just trying to convince new flingers that this was a good time to join. Obviously it would be new to them. I thought we were all getting the same boxes. Guess there's room for interpretation. Hope I'm wrong and that we're getting never before seen stuff!

You are right. I do remember that seperation now, and so far, I don't think we've seen a list from regular flingers, have we? (Are we all still processing?) Honestly, though I thought the new ones have listed pretty good stuff for 9.99.

I am confused. You got 2 mp3 players, a shirt and fan for 16 bucks shipped? What size are the mp3 players? how can you complain? I own a Ipod and a Zune and I wouldn't complain.
Just use the ilo as a throw away. Load it with music and give it to someone.
