But most of you wont. There is this fairly new store out there and it deals with consumer electronics.... 1 at a time :)

http://www.woot.com is a store that changes it's 1 product each day. Today they have a Razor Boomslang mouse. Tomorrow? Who knows. It's a kinda cool little gimmick, and makes repeat visitors out of half that visit I'd guess. Pretty good

:P It's just a mouse, ppl! If it ain't optical, I ain't gettin' it! I got tired of cleaning roller mouse components a long time ago.

No. Well not really. If you buy something you donâ??t end up liking or you have what marketing people call â??buyers remorse,â?
