@Kidsandliz glad for you…i didn’t get one as it didn’t have the link at the bottom for me to click after I checked not a robot…wonder why their captchas are always jacked up…buy from other sites with captchas and never have the problems this site gives me
Seems the counters a bit slow. I refreshed after the last deal ended right when the counter read 0:00 and when the Fuko page loaded it was already down to 4:36. Oh well, maybe next time.
I clicked “Yes! Fine! Buy it already”. The bar filled four times and said it had trouble processing and to try again. I did. It then told me it was sold out. DAMN YOU, LATENCY (and maybe ReCaptcha)! Maybe I’ll get another chance in the morning thanks to my (mostly) irrationally-lingering VMP membership.
Edit: On the bright side, I can cancel my 10:59 alarm for the next 3 months.
I’ve solved the captcha 6 time on 2 different pages. Did not work
“OOPS, SORRY. WE’RE UNABLE TO PLACE YOUR ORDER BECAUSE WE’RE NOT SURE WHICH ITEMS YOU’RE TRYING TO BUY.”
Is it my fault? Chrome’s fault? Meh’s broken scripts?
Damned frickin’ Captcha. Don’t tell me to select storefronts and then show me something that looks like a hospital entrance. When I tried it the second time, it took the “hospital” but then was SOLD freakin’ OUT.
At least I got what looks like might be decent BT earbuds for 5 bucks.
Reeeeeally? Just had this the other day- get to the order page and there’s no product on the list. Thought they would have handled that, and now it cost me a Fuko. Time to drown my sorrows in chocolate milk.
Well I’m sad. I’m still pretty new here and I had no idea that was something cool. I just thought it was a bag for sale!! I just sat and stared at it thinking, I don’t need anymore bags… BUMMER!
I’ll never get one. I’ve tried since even before Meh existed. I’ve caught hints about drops and anticipated likely holidays, set reminders and timers just to be able to get one. Today, like many times before, it allowed me to get to the checkout page. I quickly hit the yes fucking buy this button and… sold out.
At least one thing in life will never change- and that’s my clothes, as I sit in the darkness for weeks on end eagerly awaiting my next shot at disappointment.
what sucks is how long it takes for the new item to load . . . . there is about a 30 second delay which is more than enough time for a Fuku to sell out
I hope another one comes up in the next 15 minutes. I need sleep!
@modtuc82 But a fuku could have anything… it could even have a Nintendo switch! (wouldn’t you prefer a $5 switch over a $250 switch?)
Likely it’s not though… I’m always prepared to get something disappointing, (TBH, I usually try to stay out of the comments when one is coming, I’m usually toward the end of the line for meh… so mine usually is about last.)
@modtuc82 Unfortunately since the fukU’s went away most of what is in fukO’s for most people is not going to be anything close to a switch except possibly a few people getting lucky and getting some nice things. I’d love to get the shark vac in mine (EDIT: working one) or a working larger computer monitor. Doubt that will happen though. Likely I have just paid 5 bucks for a bag and a few dollar store style trinkets. LOL
@Yoda_Daenerys they apparently don’t hold back any of these for vmp to try to buy at 8am or 4pm–APRIL FOOLS DAY they didn’t and said sold out tonight…i seriously don’t know why I stay vmp
I think they knew I was working on form development today and would therefore be red-flagged to recaptcha due to frequent and repeated form submissions forcing me to complete several image captchas and thereby miss out on a fuko.

@raptorgorawr Are you a robot? You can’t buy this if you’re a robot.
@mediocrebot no
@raptorgorawr i think you’re a robot.
@carl669 lmao - nope. If i was I would have been fast enough but I missed it again. *sigh
@raptorgorawr Does /buy really work for Fuko?
@Fduch I don’t know but the button freezes on me every time (beem trying since #8) so i figured it was worth a shot
@mediocrebot so did I get one? Why did my request look like a robot?
@raptorgorawr these are all things a robot would say. but really, the fuko has a captcha so /buy won’t work. (cc: @Fduch)
Got one!
FUKO YES!
/giphy everlasting-holistic-steel
yea! got one
@Kidsandliz glad for you…i didn’t get one as it didn’t have the link at the bottom for me to click after I checked not a robot…wonder why their captchas are always jacked up…buy from other sites with captchas and never have the problems this site gives me
@AttyVette I have lost a number of them due to the captchas… This time I got lucky. They ought to exempt people who post on the forums from them.

Wooooo. My wife just said “Yay” very sarcastically… Time for disappointment!

OH HEY LOOK I MISSED THE FUKOBUKURO WITHIN HALF A MINUTE
And sold out before I could get one. Oh well.
/image helpful quiet operation
/giphy helpful quiet operation
Fuko - NOOOOOOOOOO
/giphy appropriate-permissible-fairy
Bummer. I tried, but it didn’t like me.
Aaand missed the fuko.
I bought as soon as the page loaded… Alas, sold out.
@n2o but maybe they will offer it more times than just one?
And it was sold out by the time I clicked through the robot part. Stupid robot brain taking forever to figure that out…
Yay I could have gotten one!
I’m proud to join the privileged ranks of the fukobukuro-buyers!
@cptoblivion congrats!
Made it but fucked up the gotcha. FAIL.
A tribute to my mild scoliosis!
/giphy lean-delightful-angle
/giphy frightened ceaseless quiet
Try Again, try again, oops we’re sold out…
202 sold in under 55 seconds
on the bright side it probably means that there are 4 more fukos in the next 11 hours
I want the nega-bag
/giphy negligible-unnatural-tarzan
Damn clicked right away and still missed it. My spidey sense told me a fukun fuku was next.
you guys need to fix your shitty website, I did the captcha but it didn’t let me buy one
Sold Out.
Browser freeze…meh
Finally - got one!
Hah you tricked me with poop! But I won anyway.
GRRRRRRrrrr! 8 seconds in and sold out of Fuku bag. Want!
Got one!
/giphy absolute-appetizing-lime
Too slow!!
Ugggghhh. Sold out in less than a minute??
Yay…fuko-beau-koo! Or some such.
should have known when the page would not reload.
business as usual.
Gone in 25 seconds!
Wow those went quick.
Got stuck in server wait-land…
About freakin time!!!
/giphy blessed-juicy-body
are you fucking kidding me? it said woops these are selling fast then sold out? I HATE THIS SO MUCH
/giphy modern-envious-toad
Lame, page reloaded while doing captcha
Fffffffffawesome I missed it
/giphy unwieldy-glamorized-peace
Apparently I am a robot.
Meh… damn captcha.
FUCK!!! SCREWED BY THE MOTHERFUCKING CAPTCHA!!! YOU SUCK!!!
Order screen comes up, click I’m not a robot, click buy… SOLD OUT… BAH!!
Well played, Meh.
/giphy nimble-predominant-slug
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OH YEAH!

Bought on the dot, still sold out.

@vinuash Oops, sorry. We’re sold out.
NOOOOOOOOO!!! I missed it…
Yippee!
I was stuck at the order page of the bluetooth headset that I also did not get… great
I hate meh-rathons already.
There was stock up until I had to do the captcha at the bottom… Deal didn’t even last a minute.
/buy
@caver2130 Oops, sorry. We’re sold out.
Still have yet to win one.
Fuck man! I verified and everything!
yaaaaay.
No!!! You fukko’s! Missed it again.
i am luzer.
Yes!!!
Sold out before the page loaded.
Foiled again!
god damn captcha. looks like they only sold 200, so i guess they’ll be coming again.
I accidentally ordered $10 of crap tonight.
/image profuse-glamorized-soup
Seems the counters a bit slow. I refreshed after the last deal ended right when the counter read 0:00 and when the Fuko page loaded it was already down to 4:36. Oh well, maybe next time.
And as quickly as it appeared, it’s gone again. I will get you one day, Fuku.
Refreshed just as the last deal ended and purchased immediately, no more than 10 seconds. Stuck at purchase checkout, sold out. Nice.
pissed. that is all
well. do I stay up or sleep for work in 6 hours?
got one!!!
Got one, too!
/giphy unanswered-talented-genie
YES! Got one! Glad I didn’t get the bag of cr—I mean poo clay or whatever.
Had in cart but then realized I wasn’t signed in. Signed in and lost it
Damn robot check got me
sad face
/image loping-exquisite-sugarcane
/giphy loping-exquisite-sugarcane
of course - the page wouldn’t load until after 30 seconds - which was too late
I freakin missed it
I tried and the purchase didn’t go through. I knew it. It would’ve been funnier if they made people wait through more crappy sales tho.
Every time I go for a fuku there is ab error with the payment info not being there… Every other one is there… So sad… I was right there…
/giphy baleful-gentle-lemon
/image /giphy baleful-gentle-lemon
Anyway don’t worry guys it’ll come around again overnight bet on it.
Anyone else notice they are doing these “specials” to weasel their way out of honoring the 8AM 2nd chance and the 4pm VMP sale?

Damnit…it only took seconds! Waaaaah!

/image knobby-gainful-sail
soooo 202 of these sold? Did I read that right?
/giphy worldly-destroyed-teeth
I assume this won’t be the only time to buy these today, especially since they only sold 200 of them.
Fie! Quick to draw, but sold out in the check out. Not bad from my phone on a moving train, though.
Alright, good try, but I’m out of here
goddamnit it anyways. It just spun and spun before “sold out”
@hanzov69 Also, I’m still not a damn robot.
My first fuk! Yea!!!
Fuck. Missed again.
Argh sold out during captcha
I got a piece of shit and a fuko.
UGH! My internet service went down with like 30 seconds left on those stupid earphones and then came back after this was sold out. WWWWHHHHYYYYYY???
The one time I may have caught a fuko I get denied.
YES! Happy birthday Meh, thank you for the invite to the party. Going to be a long 24 hours. Hope the whiskey arived in time for the party!
Are you a robot
Got one! First time! Almost foiled by not being a robot.
. Jimminy crickets covered in chocolate! I swear I hit pay and it took so long to process all gone.
Screwed by recaptcha :’(
202 sold. pretty sure there’s more. Oh wait. Forget I said that. You might as well leave now.
Got one, whoo-hoo!
/giphy theatrical-slick-healer

I clicked “Yes! Fine! Buy it already”. The bar filled four times and said it had trouble processing and to try again. I did. It then told me it was sold out. DAMN YOU, LATENCY (and maybe ReCaptcha)! Maybe I’ll get another chance in the morning thanks to my (mostly) irrationally-lingering VMP membership.
Edit: On the bright side, I can cancel my 10:59 alarm for the next 3 months.
@ManiacClown Don’t think relaunch applies to FUK*s
I’ve solved the captcha 6 time on 2 different pages. Did not work
“OOPS, SORRY. WE’RE UNABLE TO PLACE YOUR ORDER BECAUSE WE’RE NOT SURE WHICH ITEMS YOU’RE TRYING TO BUY.”
Is it my fault? Chrome’s fault? Meh’s broken scripts?
@Fduch This is definite shenanigan. Could not BELIEVE this message; there was nothing to select. Continuing antipathy against East Coasters.
Damned frickin’ Captcha. Don’t tell me to select storefronts and then show me something that looks like a hospital entrance. When I tried it the second time, it took the “hospital” but then was SOLD freakin’ OUT.
At least I got what looks like might be decent BT earbuds for 5 bucks.

@DaFrogMan Sorry, the
/buycommand is currently only available to VMP members.only 200, meh must be planning on sprinkling them in here and there.
Reeeeeally? Just had this the other day- get to the order page and there’s no product on the list. Thought they would have handled that, and now it cost me a Fuko. Time to drown my sorrows in chocolate milk.
Are they gonna have more to sell tomorrow?
@jayplus707 Maybe they will sell more tonight in a later 5 min sale… or not.
Got it!

Aw, yeah. Got one.

@APDWaldo6 now if only my fuko would be as cool as that giphy
Missed it. I was getting fluids ready to give to the cat. Oh, well.
Well I’m sad. I’m still pretty new here and I had no idea that was something cool. I just thought it was a bag for sale!! I just sat and stared at it thinking, I don’t need anymore bags… BUMMER!
@qwerty82 there’s an excellent chance that the only functional item in the fuko is the bag itself, so you’re not too far off base.
/giphy onerous-bewildered-eggnog
/giphy rewarded-teeny-mailbox
hahaha I figured I’d try. I have a gift for you all…
Well, at least I scored the Poo-Dough, at least I know what will be in my BOC since the damn captcha kept me from a Fuko.
Said it wasn’t sure what I was trying to purchase…REALLY?!
Oh, well. Live another day. Congrats to those who got one!
I’ll never get one. I’ve tried since even before Meh existed. I’ve caught hints about drops and anticipated likely holidays, set reminders and timers just to be able to get one. Today, like many times before, it allowed me to get to the checkout page. I quickly hit the yes fucking buy this button and… sold out.

MEH performance Ahht
Watch it. Feel it in your soul.
@Panegyric That’s the same pause that got me, and it wasn’t refreshing (pun intended).

what sucks is how long it takes for the new item to load . . . . there is about a 30 second delay which is more than enough time for a Fuku to sell out
I hope another one comes up in the next 15 minutes. I need sleep!
@trlenoir I’ve found refreshing at 2 seconds on clock is the best bet…
now the damn site is down!
Woot went bad, Meh is going the same way…
Got a fuku, but would rather have gotten a Switch. Meh
@modtuc82 But a fuku could have anything… it could even have a Nintendo switch! (wouldn’t you prefer a $5 switch over a $250 switch?)
Likely it’s not though… I’m always prepared to get something disappointing, (TBH, I usually try to stay out of the comments when one is coming, I’m usually toward the end of the line for meh… so mine usually is about last.)
@sohmageek Oh yeah, definitely. Regardless, the wife wouldn’t be happy if I spent $250 on a Switch.
@modtuc82 Unfortunately since the fukU’s went away most of what is in fukO’s for most people is not going to be anything close to a switch except possibly a few people getting lucky and getting some nice things.

@AttyVette I tried to make you an animated thing to make a :| face for why you do it, but it was too much effort.
@Pantheist thanks for the thought though…;0
@AttyVette check my post to vmp, or not to vmp
altho there was 1 fuko i got at 8am, i’m certain of it (almost)
