    Well color me intrigued, I'm almost tempted to get one, and I've never been a fan of monthly mystery mailouts. $75 before shipping seems a little steep, but they promise $130 worth of merchandise (not sure I buy it..) so anybody wants to get (or give) a FUK?

    Very poor choice of labeling/nameing in my opinion. I am interested as to what is actually included as it is likely things I would have no use for. I'm more familiar with MysteryTackleBox and BirdieBox for fishing and golf. Hopefully the shipping on these packages isn't like ammo, as it could range from 1-6 weeks or never even ship at all from what I've read! LOL

    Yeah, haha, I imagine with their backup, you'd always be a month behind! I found the name humorous, but then again I cuss like a sailor, and I'm sure many other people don't share my sense of humor. :n00b:

    Generally when companies resort to playing games with the name of products in a more vulgar than clever way, the product just isn't worth my time/money. Not saying that is the case here, just in general.

    So, we pay more than 1/2 "retail" value for a crap grab bag of stuff we don't even know is of any use to us. Now, maybe at the $25-35 price range, it would be worth the gamble, but $75...? Hell no!

    My wife was bugging me about what to get me for my birthday this year. I told her one of these boxes would be a good idea.

    I'll give you guys the report when it shows up.

    I received the box today. It's really weak. Here's what's in it:


    • Vortex lenspen lens cleaner
    • Magpod - this thing is dumb
    • Playing cards with scantily clad women on them
    • Condor flag patch hat - $10 at any army surplus store
    • Cold Steel Pocket Shark - google it, this is truly stupid
    • Cold Steel "The Spike" - okay I guess, for a $25 knife
    • Freedom munitions sticker x2
    • UM Tactical sticker
    • UM Tactical beer coozie
    • Cold Steel Apocalypse Proof DVD

    Wow! Thanks for sharing. That was fast shipping. I was really tempted to get one just for fun but...wow...yeah. I buy a lot of stuff but this one would have really hurt. I hope your birthday was still good. :)

    You take a bunch of stuff sitting on a shelf not moving, make it a package deal with a funky name, and when pricing use list price instead of normal price.

    Doesn't look like $130 to me.

    oops, scooped by Roadie!

    looked up pocket shark... $5.15
    honestly looks like, at full retail, $55-60 plus some promotional stickers, coozie, and an ad for knives.
