No thanks - and for those who don't know what we're referring to, I'll point you this way:

SO no cell phone lights and no PDA keyboard, thats good. What about poker watches? I still have no idea what to do with them. I might just buy this box if I know it contains no poker watches.

Well, I'm in for another MB. I can't resist these - even when I still have no full time job (did find a part time one though) and haven't gotten my $10 MB yet. Blame my sister for this one though. I was visiting her and went onto TF to check the status of orders and she saw up. Since I can't seem to say no to MB's, I ordered some. I have waaaay to much fun waiting for the unknown box to arrive. I don't care what's in it. If I can't use it right away, give me time and I'll find a use for it. I hate wasting. Thanks for getting me hooked.d'oh!

This is my first purchase and I'm thrilled I saw the MB was being offered.
From looking all around the web site and seeing how well it is done to the ease of placing my order, a round of Applause to everyone at THINGFLING.

posted this in the $10 MB forum so I will paste it here as well.

ok just recieved my $10 MB and I must say that I feel that I have been shagged even though there wasn't a letter. I will post pictures or state what I received later on keeping everyone surprised. I am much happier with this one compared to my $9.99 MB from before. Thank you TF, much better.

One other thing, it was 1 box with 3 seperate bags in it, as well as a bonus item not in any of the bags.

i would like to pick up atleast 1 of these but am still debating.


What did your 3 $10.00 MBs weigh?

I'm new to the mystery boxes. Is it anything like woot.com's mystery bags? What should I expect from a "mystery" box?

I bought one a few months back and will not buy again. The junk is really junk, the few almost useful items (like the generic cheap surge protector/outlet strip) never worked from the beginning, and everything else was even worse. Just as bad as Woots BOC, but more expensive.

Edit: The box I ordered was a $19.99 box and obviously I was extremely disappointed.


Thats what I've been thinking about the mystery boxes/bags of crap...generally not worth the time waiting for them, nor the money.


My opinion on MBs/BOCs is that if you think it's worth the money for the intrigue and the fun of seeing what you'll get you should buy them, and you might even get some cool stuff you can use (or gift). If you're just buying them on the expectation of getting something of real value on the cheap, you're buying for the wrong reasons and should probably skip them.

With that attitude, I haven't been that disappointed by a MB yet, as they've all been fun to open and go through. Smile (Although I still have no idea what to do with my gazillion cell phone lights...)


If you like playing the lottery, buy MBs...at least you'll get SOMETHING for your money!

In for one. This is my first Mystery Box so I hope it's good. TF put me through some stuff with a coupon so I hope this works out or I'm not sure.

When told that the Mystery Box is for the newbies then I shall leave it for those that never got the chance to enjoy a MB. I don't want to be a MB pig and take every one of them out there since that could leave some new customer short and it would be sad knowing that someone was unable to get the thrill and enjoyment that I usually get just because I was a greedy lil sucker.

Enjoy those Mystery Boxes all you first timers and feel the enjoyment and anticipation that most of us get out of the MB sales.Applause

I just recieved my $19.99 mystery box. I had only ordered one out of morbid curiosity. Included were; 1 set of RCA noise cancelling headphones, 1x Maxell Big Screen Cleaning Kit, 1x LazerPro Laser Pointer with 42 pattern heads, 1x Gemini retractable Cat5e cable, 1x GE Magnetic Message Reminder, 1x Linksys Dual Mode Internet Phone for Yahoo, and a wee tiny multitool. I had recieved a Yahoo phone packed in with my $10 MB last week, but am not at all dissappointed. Just waiting for my next hit of MB goodness...
