 Mine are on there way  It says they were shipped on the 25th and I get them tomorrow..... I got 2 of the boxes and it says the box is 6lbs. WOW, $25.98 for 6 pounds of the unknown. This might be my first total mystery, I usually read on here what people got before I get mine. I have 9 flings so far, so this can't be the noob box. I guess I can't read the forums till I get my box. $4.33 per pound, flinging is cheaper than a nice steak. How can you go wrong.

 I can not imagine 30 pounds of fling! Most items weigh nothing. There MUST be somefling of weight included x2 I would imagine. I got excited over 6 pounds. I ALWAYS want flings to play with. One thing I want is a programmable scrolling nametag or hat, the first thing I would put in would be "I'm a flinger" I work in a pizza shop and would love to meet another flinger. I sure would love to have a TF shirt! (hint hint)

Mine appear to be on the way. I ordered 3 and the shipping weight is 15 pounds! Sounds good, but the weight is not always an indication of the quality of items. I've gotten lighter boxes that were excellent and some heavier ones that were not quite as good as the lighter ones. (Notice I never said there were any bad ones though!) My shipping info gives an estimated delivery date of tomorrow, but there's nothing on the tracking other than "package data transmitted to FedEx" on the 25th, so I don't think I'll see it tomorrow. Even so, they're one step closer. The list was getting too long to continue to provide details: 25 flings flung - 14 of them mysteries - $477.69 total damage

Yeah I don't know what I was thinking going in for 2 x 3 the first time around, but they make it sound so tempting I just couldn't resist because you think in the back of your mind what if it's something really cool in one box that I would want to have two! So there I go pushing the fling me one button! I am so gullible I just hope it's not 15lbs of cell phone lights!  Why does everbody who puts their 2 cents in always wind up a penny short? Always Remember the Infamous 9.99 Mystery box!!! COME GET SOME!!!

YAY  Mine are on the way as well. But TF PLEASE go back to UPS not FedEx. At least UPS comes all the way to the door and knocks. Fedex comes up the first couple of steps and drops the box at the top of the steps because a signature isnt requested/ required. And for those that will comment on this YES I have called fedex and complained and given specific instructions but alas they still dont even come to the door and knock. Please go back to using UPS ~~Jinx "I reject your reality and substitute my own" - Adam Savage, Mythbusters Flings Flung: 40 total orders- Regular items- 22 Orders, 40 items; MB/AMB- 16 orders, 23 MBs/AMBs; 2 Canceled( 1 voluntary, 1 bad batch of Batteries w/ Chargers) In 9 months of Flings I have already surpassed my purchases of almost 2yrs on that other DOD site where it's nearly impossible to get their mystery 'bag'... lol ~~Jinx

Mine says shipped 4/25 due to be delivered 5/5. I also hate Fedex. Once I had to wait 2 weeks for a package because fedex did not have a driver to deliver where I live. Why do the accept packages for an area where they don't have a deliver driver? The package always comes beat to hell, and takes forever. Whenever I have a choice I choose UPS. They are great. Our driver's name is Jim and he will even stop at the Tavern where I work and leave my package if he sees my truck there, or anyone else that he has packages for that happens to be in the tavern. I don't like having stuff shipped by the USPS either, because we only have mail service on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

This was my first time ordering TF MB. I was happy to see what I received, but when I opened the famous TF Fan, It was broke, but I was ok with that because I still had the 2 MP3 players, But now I can't get one of them to work. I understand that you take a chance but to me I think that TH should make sure that the items sent are working and not broken. But that is a chance I took, I guess. You learn from your mistakes.

I hate UPS...twice now they've delivered something to the wrong house, and we filed claims with them...so now they refuse to deliver unless someone signs for it...because of THEIR screw ups... hopefully TF will start using FedEx at least for my area 39 flings as of 7-4-08 and counting

Wow... I really wish I had actually gotten a newbie box (or shagged =p)... I could have put the MP3 players to good use... I don't know what the hell I need 48 cell phone lights for... they advertised this box as being pretty amazing for the price, and so far I don't see anything worth my $35... at least in the $30 MB there was some actual useful items.... watches that kids would wear? What adult in his right mind would use this? Ugh... I might have to swear off MB's from now on =/ At least with the *other guys* you're only paying $8 and it's advertised as "crap" so you don't get your hopes up... sigh

Click on the helpdesk and open up a ticket for your broken/not working items. They will get back to you and make it right. Welcome to the community!

NOT happy!! Got my 15 lb box o' mystery today. Got the same stuff as the newbie's except got the xbox game manager and no ilo's! Would have rather had the ilos. I don't own an xbox. Got 4 poker watches. WTH?! 2 PDA keyboards, might be able to use them. 48 cell phone lights. I thought our boxes were going to be different. No more MBs for me.
