Too late. This one is sold out, according to their website. It still lets you push the button that says "I want it", but the comment says "too late".
@rickfurman: i am not having this issue. please try again. :)
@wootiewooterson: I got the same thing. I think it's over with. :/
I can get it. Just wondering about the quality. I'm video camera illiterate.
So am I, but I bought one anyway.
Flip cams are pretty easy to use, press the red button to start/stop recording, plug into USB and grab your files.

Its dirt cheap, but 640x480 is crap. Think of it more like a toy at this point. Add $100 to this price and you can get HD.
Yeah I just tried it and it says "I've been declined."
I was just able to get it with no problem - had to go all the way through checkout.
tricky tricky, this isn't a real flip camcorder. My wife has a flip brand she keeps in her purse and I'd be curious of the quality of this one. She tried an off brand one that another mom got and there was a big difference even with them both having the same resolution.
Got one of these for xmas 2009. returned it within a week. Stick with brand flip quality is worth it. the sylvania video comes out very grainy. It really is bulky can crappy compared to the Flip.
this is a great price for a starter but dont expect QUALITY with a camera like this.
I just purchased . . . not sold out!
I was able to get it at 10:16 EST...at least I'm getting a bill for it :<)
anyone who thinks $30 can get you a video camera with any sort of quality needs their head examined. webcams even cost more than $30.
chances are if you have a digital (still) camera, it probably has video capability on par or better than this piece of junk.
I got this deal via my blackberry and I immediately got on my computer to buy it because I wanted the Flip mino hd one for a while. As soon as I got on my computer I checked woot and other reviews and got negative feedback. Good thing I didn't waste $30. Thanks woot. On another deal note, my friend went to Nordstrom Rack yesterday and found a brand new pair of Nike Hyperize basketball shoe for $50 and got me a pair. Nordstrom rack is Legit.
Regardless of the negative comments, I still purchased 2. Mine are for use in my classroom and my 6 & 7 year-old's are not pixel savvy yet. These are perfect for them to shoot videos with and if they break, oh well!
This is the second time I have seen the description of an item change on Deals.woot. Earlier today it said that was a Flip camera. Now it just says that it's a camera. That kind of stuff is not cool.
Nnow it links to a 2 pack of HDMI cables.... so long...
