What is Stootsi?
Stootsi.com is a not-so-new, vibrant website located deep within the secret bunkers of the "Internet" (if you really want to know where we are, we are nested in the beautiful rolling hills of western Pennsylvania). Traditionally, Stootsi sells one featured item each day for 24 hours, starting at 12 PM EST. Stootsi also runs several other "deals" live each day (read below). Additionally, we operate a full store filled with our own product inventory as well as goodies from authorized third-party sellers.
What is sell.stootsi?
Sell.stootsi.com is a place where ordinary Joe's get to sell their stuff. And by ordinary, we mean you guys. It's a constant featured sale, similar to how our homepage works, with a timer and a quantity limit. The only main difference is the product offerings come from pre-approved, third party merchants. You can read more about it by visiting the sell.stootsi FAQ. Acceptance into the sell.stootsi program places all of your items into our store, shopping engines, and our featured product listing on sell.stootsi.com. Visit sell.stootsi.com by clicking the "Sell" tab at the top of this page.
What is chaos.stootsi?
Chaos.stootsi.com is a chaotic (very clever, we know) version of our Stootsi.com homepage. Deals that appear on chaos.stootsi are extremely limited in quantities, and often expire after 10 minutes. Check this page frequently if you like to refresh your browswer or are bored at work. Visit chaos.stootsi.com by clicking the "Chaos" tab at the top of this page.
What is salvage.stootsi?
Salvage.stootsi.com is our version of the liquidation bin. These deals are offered in a similar fashion to our main stootsi deal: timers, set quantities, and crazy low prices. The caveat here is that these items all have something wrong with them, hence the word "salvage". All salvage items have issues with them varying from cosmetic damage to functionality, and are sold as-is. Please read each item carefully before you buy. This portion of our site has become very popular with Stootsi folk and the do-it-yourselfer/fixer-upper crowd. Visit salvage.stootsi.com by clicking the "Salvage" tab at the top of this page.
What is games.stootsi?
games.stootsi.com is a casually growing, new addition to our site portfolio. Recognizing the need for large-scale Indie game distribution, we started this project in August of 2008. The premise is simple: low cost, highly fun, downloadable pc/mac video games. Currently we launch a new game every two weeks (roughly). Each video game developer is pre-approved for selling his/her downloadable content prior to appearing on games.stootsi.com. If you are a video game developer and would like to either launch your game or sell your game on our site, please go to the games submission form. Visit games.stootsi.com by clicking the "Games" tab at the top of this page.
What is the Store?
The Store is, well, a store. Thousands of items + low prices + rare stuff = lots of fun. The store includes products from our current inventory that never make it to our deal pages, items from past deals that you may have missed, and items from pre-approved Stootsi merchants. Find what you're looking for today by clicking the "Store" tab at the top of this page.
What is Page 2?
Page 2 is our crappy version of blog meets e-commerce website. Random weekly contests, user comments, articles, links, site statistics, and other random crap. Total time-killer. Visit Page 2 by clicking the "Page 2" tab at the top of this page.
Stootsi Contests?
Stootsi believes in a little work being commended with unproportionally huge rewards. At random times throughout the work week (that would be Monday through Friday), Stootsi.com will be running various types of Contests that will have a multitude of different prizes. All Contents strive for ease-of-use, as to not alienate any of our loyal customers. As long as you have a couple spare minutes in the day, and an original/humorous thought in your head, you'll be able to try your luck at winning a prize! As it stands right now, our prize closet is overflowing with Stootsi Contest Coupons, various products that we have sold/will sell on Stootsi.com, and yes, there may even be some cold hard cash in there.
You can only take First Place in a Stootsi Contest once per week (Monday through Friday). That does not stop you, however, from taking any other offered places in any of the other Contests that we may run throughout that time period.
How do I enter Stootsi Contests?
That's a pretty simple question to answer. You'll need to go to Page 2 and see what the contest is currently listed in the Stootsi Contest Blog. Read over the description of the Contest, and post your entry! More times than not, the rules of the Contest will be posted at the bottom of the Contest description, and that day's Contest prizes will be noted there as well. Please keep all content clean in your entries, as we will be monitoring them. Anything deemed inappropriate will be censored, and we reserve the right to kidnap, and hold for ransom, any small pets (especially exotic fish) and/or office supplies that repeat offenders may have.
All entries will be judged by some of the Internet's hardest working, most handsome, incredibly intelligent, modestly humble people. You guessed it; Stootsi.com's staff will review and analyze all entries, and will decide on who will be the lucky recipients of that day's Contest prizes. Winners shall be announced on Page 2's Contest Winners Blog.
Contest Rules?
Just like every other contest in the history of mankind, Stootsi contests have some rules, which of course are eligible to change at any point in time. For now, they are:
- Contest coupons cannot be combined with other coupons offered by Stootsi.com. This means that only one Contest coupon can be used per purchase.
- Contest coupons are only valid for orders that are greater than the sale price of a product offered on Stootsi.com. This means that if you win a $10.00 coupon, you can only use this coupon for a product that is selling for more than $10.00 on Stootsi.com.
- Contest coupons are non refundable, and may be used only one time. Once an order is placed, and a coupon is used, that coupon is forever void and cannot be refunded under any circumstances.
- Contest coupons are valid for 30 days from the date of issuance. No exceptions can be made.
- Contest rules and coupon usage rules are subject to change. Please refer to this section for future updates.
Stootsi.com reserves the right to limit or suspend any seller, at any time, in our discretion, for any reason. Keep in mind this is not a threat - run a good business and you'll never hear from us. Ship products on time, build a brand for yourself, and save money in the process!
Who can buy your stuff?
Stootsi.com does not discriminate, as long as you live in the United States or Canada. For those of you in Rio Linda, this means that we only ship to the United States and Canada.
How do I buy something?
You just have to create an account, and then click "Purchase".
What are my shipping options?
Shipping options abound. Nearly every item on Stootsi.com is eligible to be shipped Stootsi Classic. This shipping option is a flat $6.00, delivered to you within 3-5 business days. We also offer Stootsi Snail on several small items at a cost of no more than $4.85. We also offer several other shipping services to get items to you quicker. If you are somewhat confused or have additional questions, just know that our shipping is dirt cheap. We want shipping to be a "non-factor" when you decide to purchase from us. Please visit the full shipping table for all of your shipping concerns. We are currently working on delivery via horseback. Note to Canucks: please remember that we are not responsible for duties/taxes or UPS broker fees, but the ridiculous deals we give out will probably outweigh all of that. If not, you can't blame us for not shipping to Canada!
Shipping restrictions?
Sorta. Again, please visit the full shipping table for all of your shipping prices, options, and concerns.
How many can I buy?
The max number of orders for a given item will change daily. Please refer to the details of the checkout pages for maximum number of each item you can buy in a day.
Return Policy?
Every item we sell, whether it is on our homepage or in the store, has a "warranty" graphic beside the item explicitly stating the type of warranty, if any, that is offered. Based on the condition of the item (new, refurbished, overstock/liquidation, returns), there may or may not be a manufacturer's warranty. Any problems with a product that is under manufacturer warranty will be handled directly with the manufacturer. Stootsi will however assist you in receiving warranty support with the manufacturer if neccessary. Due to the ridiculously low prices that we offer, no returns are accepted for buyer's remorse. Ideally, you will just sell your item that you don't like on ebay, and maybe even make some money in the process. If no warranty on a product is given, and it arrives defective or Dead On Arrival (DOA) you must notify us within 3 days via email at rma@stootsi.com. After 3 days all sales are final. Return shipping will be at your own expense. Stootsi does not offer replacements in any situation and you will receive a refund of your sale price only.
As you may already know, several of our featured items carry the warranty tag known as "open box". For details on warranty information for these items, please click the warranty graphic for explanation of said warranty.
