This Wednesday we reintroduced our famous RNG-driven clearance sale with a twist. Unlike our usual ‘gumball machine’ sales, everything in the PPE Pump is brand new, regular inventory.
What does this mean for you? Well, it means literally thousands of high value items are up for grabs. You can get a brand new SGE 400/3 gasmask, chemical suit, or a CAT7 Tourniquet—all for only $6.99 a pop. We’ll even order you a pizza. Do we actually make a profit doing this? No. It’s about a 30% loss. Is it fun? Abso-friggen-lutely.
About the Sale
The PPE Pump is simple and driven by pure chance. We select a bunch of items for clearance, publish the odds, and distribute them randomly as you order. No special requests for items are honored, it’s all down to what the random number generator says…
In the end, everyone walks away a winner — we get to empty our shelves, and you get amazing deals and weird one-offs from our warehouse.
Please note that this is a clearance event. Returns are not accepted on PPE Pump orders.
A Special Note on Sizing
Sized PPE Pump items such as our selection of nitrile and latex gloves will be distributed randomly unless specifically stated otherwise in the description below. You are free to request certain sizes of items in your order notes but really it’s down to chance.
The Dispensing Process
Below you will find the table of available items in the PPE Pump, each with a corresponding percentile chance. Every squirt of the PPE Pump is determined through the following RNG system — no requests for specific items are allowed.
Let’s say you have your eye on a particular item and want to calculate your chance of getting it, at least once, across multiple items. The formula for this is:
1 – ( 1 – % Chance) ^ (# of Chances)
If item A has a 20% chance per pump, and you purchase three pumps, here’s how it would shake out. Your chance at item A is equal to:
1 – (1 – 0.20)^3 = 0.488
In other words, your chance at item A is 48.8%
Note: To use this formula you need to express the percentage chance in decimal form. The 20% chance in the formula above is written as “0.20” not “20.”
Happy pumping and may RNGesus bless you!
