Pirate Chess Set

Pirate Chess Set for $49.99

Shiver me timbers!

Ye see this beautiful chess set? ‘Tis something else. Beautifully designed, it features pirate-themed pieces. Instead of the typical black and white sets, these pirates (and canons) come in vibrant blue and red sets so you can send these pieces to Davy Jones’ locker in style.
 
The board is surrounded on all four corners with pirates. There are two drawers for each player to stow away his or her crew. Lightweight and elegant, this set is both decorative and practical for usage. And for this price, you practically did the plundering yourself.

Any clue as to what this is made out of?

Description says "lightweight", so I translate that as "plastic".

@thatcrazyruski: Afraid not. That's my chief hesitation. I'm just thinking it will look great on our boat!

I would guess they're poly-resin.

I think I've seen it before and it isn't lightweight at all. It's made of wood, or at least looks and feels like it.

This thread has come to our attention and we have checked into the matter. To clear up the confusion, a note has been added to the product description on the site. It reads:

Note: The word lightweight is used in context. Most similar sets weigh well over 15 lbs and this one weighs 9 lbs.

@jizbee: Thanks! Can you let us know what it IS made of?

It is hand-painted polystone (stone-like material, very hard and durable but will break if dropped on a hard surface).

@jisbee: C'mon guys. Your page load times are unacceptable. You are serving full sized images as thumbnails. I can't even run your deals page past a web analyzer because the page size exceeds their threshold. If your developer(s) cannot manage a resize script for images or to manually create thumbnails, I don't see how I could trust them to process my financial transactions. Nevermind the dubious usage of a character oddly similar to those featured in a Bee Movie.

@jizbee: Are these Somali Pirates? I don't see any assault rifles?

@jizbee: I checked out your FAQ page, and I just don't see how my question is not on that page. "jizbee? Did you buy a porn domain name to start your site?"

Hey, log in or sign up first!

Whatever it is you're trying to do can ONLY be done by registered, logged-in Deals.Woot members. Why? Because they're better people than you. Don't worry: you can easily improve yourself by logging into your Woot account or signing up for a new one.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
