    If you've been on the fence about picking up this god-tier gaming mouse but held off because it's too expensive at $130, now is your chance to get it for just over half the normal price!

    Woot® : One Day, One Deal?

    One catch: it's refurbished rather than brand new, but you'll never know the difference.

    Got one as well. However, I haven't received shipping notice. But the website says it can take up to 5 days to be shipped. Hopefully everything turns out OK.

    As long as it gets here in one piece, I'm happy. :)

    I just got my shipping confirmation email from Woot...the Fedex tracking number isn't working yet, but that usually takes several hours.

    I got my tracking # as well, but it doesn't say when the delivery date is. I'll have to check again and make sure I didn't miss anything.

    edit: They updated the tracking with a delivery date of 7/23/10.

    Yep, same here. That's not too bad, considering it's coming from Texas to Ohio. Normally that distance would take at least 4 days.

    The delivery date got pushed back one day, and it arrived this morning! I'm loving it so far.

    It didn't come with the fancy display case packaging; it was just the mouse, dock and cable in some bubble wrap and air cushions in a cardboard box.

    Half the joy of buying this mouse is carting that fancy display case around the store and then opening it up at home. :D When I bought it at BB, I had a couple people oooo'ing and awww'ing at the case lol.

    I also received the mouse and have to say that I am very impressed with it. It is larger than the G9 but the wireless option is a nice feature. Overall, I put it on the same level overall with the G9. Both have their +'s and -'s. I'm going to keep of each and sell my extra G9 :)
