This "sale" is a joke however.
Except maybe the microwave, but that is with rebates ( $50 ! ) , and frys rebates belong to the worst.....
Waste of time.
Reading through these pages is like vonge deja-vue.
All you complaining about SR havent REALLY tried vonage yet.
Sure, there are always some claiming vonage is the "best", but we know about vonage's referral scheme and why they try to promote them.
i am waiting for $50AR deal for 200GB which they had last summer at Fry's...
Good luck with that!
frys rebates (even if they go to manufacturer) are some of the worst.
It seems that frys promises the manufacturers a certain (very low) turnout for that promotion, and when that is exeeded...
Me and my friends all got burned.
This is the worst company to deal with!
Even the FCC investigated them.
See the report.
After they got many more complaints, they opted out of the BBB system.
That is a strong indicator by itself.
After being ripped off largely by TD, the company I worked for went to court against them.
I had repeatedly talked to a rep "Omar" and was a witness in that case.
We were surprised that the whole day each session at that courtroom was about TD and their scams. It was all so similar, just the...
Is there an affordable firewall which can handle 15Mbps at all??
I'm not talking about the (dumb) switches inside/behind it, but the firewall/router itself.
dwirsz, I got your scan via email from a friend, he pointed me to this thread asking if this is a good deal.
I didn't know who's scan that was originally.
I had not logged in to Analtech for a while so my pw wasn't working.
So after finally everything worked, we had been to 3 stores w. your...
dwirsz, I tried to use that one, but because portions were blanked out they wouldn't accept it as a legitimate PM. We tried two stores, same thing, manager wouldn't do it.
I thought that they would be able to look up that particular sales ticket, but that doesn't work because only the main HQ...
After a long time (anal mod) I checked into this forum and saw this thread. It was posted on FW earlier than this one but had slipped my attention.
Anyhow,..
I got a few of these drills for $14.40 each (including 8.25% tax).
This is an EXCEPTIONAL deal and I thank you for this thread!
I...
I went, I saw, and as I said, NO KEY WORDS in the title of the thread. LOL.
Joe
P.S.
It's awfully funny to have someone with 1200 LESS posts insulting you for a thoroughly described deal. I think anyone with any experience here is aware of TD and can choose (or not) to take a risk...
Wow! My first thread crap! ROFL.
BTW, I searched for this deal before posting it, so whoever has posted it has NOT put key words in their thread title. Do you think I'm a Newbie? Jeez...
Joe
It takes some IQ to do a search. But we had the IQ issue covered in 1) and 2).
Here is the original...
1) First off, anything involving TD is as stupid as the poster!
2) Secondly, this is a repost (gives another hint about the poster)!
3) third, all those bumping and calling this a "nice" or "good" deal are like the guy mentioned in 1).
But at least the poster mentioned TD in the title ...
EXACTLY !
This to those who dismiss TD rebates as being unreliable.
That's EXACTLY why I purchase at Staples and not ConUSA, even if both rebates go to Parago.
And as you mentioned: only crap companies do business with other carp companies. They are as shady as themselves!
Read this about TD...
I agree, if a company treats many people badly, by screwing them with junk or selling them returned items it shows their style of business.
That has nothing to do with one or the other bad mooded CSR which we alsways encounter.
Here it is a crook company doing bad bad business, and a few...
The new Staples on Wilshire and 16th in Santa Monica (parking is below the store, enter from 16th).
Nothing really hot hot, except the Laptop maybe.
Or if you are into DVD's and have some coupons.....
"Grand Opening" is on Saturday.
The DVD media looks interesting in combination with some...
I don't agree.
It is basically OM who is not worth it.
They screw people with substitutions (in store) which are not eligible for rebates or deny left and right even if all is in order.
Bottom line: avoid OM.
Don't waste your time. I got burned with many OM rebates and their HQjust made things worse.
Last time there was b*tch who would just hang up on me and be quite rude.
I filed complaints with the FTC and BBB, but OM didn't even care to resolve it.
Simply boycott them.
And warn others about them.
Yes, printing labels both for postage and USPS mailing confirmation (those green stickers, I simply label them too) with a labelprinter like Dymo 300 (they are very popular) would be great.
But more importantly scanning in the finished documents automatically as a means of "keep copies of...
Yes, the retailer is responsible. And same here with going to court. The only company (if one can call them so) we really had to sue was tiger direct. For fraud and some other charges.
But all the other (real) stores give in after you fax them the filing. I got my ConUSA rebates after being...
Not after the scam they did last year with that software they installed on your PC without asking/telling you.
Companies who do that should be punished by not buying their products.
60 Gig drives have "buggy" platters with too many bad sectors.
If a certain threshold of bad sectors has been detected, and they cannot be addressed with spare sectors they get "downgraded".
Same thing for 15 Gig drives.
Some newer 80 Gigs are in fact faulty 120 Gigs.
Exactly my point too. With ConUSA's history on not paying rebates, I hardly shop there anymore. Last time was last year, when they had their anniversary or whatever, they sold e-machines w/o rebates.
But after all the experiences I would not do rebate items with them anymore.
I had no problems with (at least) 12 Emachines during the years. My friend's modem died in his Emachine, but so did his giga set (Siemens) phone, attached to the same line, so it could have been a surge or s.th. .
Contrary to the oh-so-famous dell junk, Emachines have "standard" motherboards...
No, there was a $10 off $50 code which brought the price to ca. $40 (plus tax) out the door. I got three of them.
Unfortunately 2 of them died soon, typical wetstern digital. Turned out that they had many bad drives around that time as a new "management" had taken over and boosted production...
What a stupid thread!
Many of us got 30 gig drives for ca. $40 in 2001. At that time it was really a hot deal, but T H I S ???
Ice cold and totally late. Like 2 (nearly 3!) years late!
seems they will release a new spamless version soon (see /.) .
but it's still a crappy router with minimal settings control.
Not really worth the $10 .
Yes, emachine produce very good laptops.
There are very few companies which manufacture laptops for OEMs (one company makes parts for Dells as well as for Gateway) and the screen for this emachine is used in some of the precision series from dell. The spare part is the same.
It's just...
