Bag of Crap (BOC) Bigpockets £10-98 inc P&P

Just ordered one
Hurry this goes quick

http://www.bigpockets.co.uk/product.php?product=BOXSPEC001&title=Christmas+Bag+O%92+Crap

Are you ready?? We have got the worst deal ever for you. We are going to ask you to spend your hard earned pounds for a bag o crap. For £4.99 we will give you a bag or a box with three crappy items in it. These items are cluttering up our warehouse and we have two or 3 of them per line certainly not enough to list them individually on our website. So we thought we would put three of them in a bag and we would get someone to buy them. Thats where you come in

Q1) Is this for real?
A) Yes we are going to sell you a bag o crap- but we are going to give you a chance to get your money back. When you receive your bag o crap please post a a video of you opening up your bag of crap and utilising it and we will pay £50.00 for every video we feature on our website. The Title of the video must include the words bigpockets.co.uk and christmas bag o' crap we will also pay an additional £200.00 for the best Video once we have sold out of all our bags o crap. Please see sample video below. Post your review in the review section of this product. We recommend using youtube for any video uploads.

Q2) What if I get my bag of crap and I dont like it.
A) Dohh what do you expect. Thou shall not expect thy crap to be especially nice. If we were unloading a lot of really cool stuff, wed call them Bags O Really Cool Stuff, but we dont

Q3) If I dont like my crap can I get my money back.
A) No dont be silly, if you buy a bag of crap and you dont like it you are experiencing what marketing people call buyers remorse. Deal with it for gods sake its under a fiver. You could have a go at multiplying your measly £4.99 investment by over a hundred fold by making video and hosting it on you tube and we will link it in the reviews section for a bag of crap. Please refer to Q1.

Q4) What if the crap my mate buys is better than my crap.
A) Nobody said life was fair. Are you building your own barracks with your bare, broken hands in a remote Soviet Gulag? No, youre dissatisfied with a purchase you freely chose to make even though it was plainly labelled Crap. Have some perspective.

Q5) Do I have any guarantee that the crap I buy will be worth more then £4.99
A) The only comment we will make is in our opinion its worth a lot more then a measly £5

Note: Thou shall take a moment to consider whether you might be better off just not buying this crap. Buyers remorse is just a click too far away!

  • These are a really good buy - excellent value. Don't forget to go for an extra free delivery item effectively discounted. I got the racing granny track.

    Thanks for the tip - they do go fast

    just a warning, check prices of their free postage stuff elsewhere and you might have been better off paying for the postage for the BOC...

    For example the battery lamp they have for £13 can be had for £1.79 from Empiredirect....

    edit: just noticed that it says the Christmas bag o crap on the website, so it's possible that they will be filling these up with ex Christmas stock? Again no idea but it's possible...

    On bigpockets it says same day dispatch, although you may be a little late for that now.

    But my BOC from boffer was ordered on the 9th and was delivered yesterday (well, it would have been if I was in, I'm picking it up from the depot on my way home in a min)

    No, its not just you, a couple of people in my office have said "what the hell would you order that for???"

    But its the "lucky dip" aspect of it that I like, I could get something really good (like curtain rod holders) or some proper crap (like a DVD recorder or an Ipod)

    I may even get a flask!!! :T

    From what I've seen, they are worth the money, they might not contain anything I want, but what I get will probably be worth £5

    I will do!


    As Ben500 said on the other thread, if you think of it as a £5 lucky dip then you shouldnt be too disappointed, if you think you would be disappointed with a pair of curtain holders, some DVD cases and a flask (or whatever) then dont order one.

    I'm hoping there will be one or two bits in there handy as comedy stocking fillers
