a "new customer" for buy.com requires a new e-mail address and credit card number. For those caught in the Global Telecom mess, this is one small reward.

I don't think I've ever actually received a Kingston ValueRAM rebate. That is a fairly common experience. And the Buy.com $10 off $30 coupon is only for new customers, so most of us won't qualify (unless we create a new account with a new eddress & perhaps credit card number, and some might question the ethics of this maneuver).

A company called Premier System is hawking 128 MB of PC133 SDRAM that they claim is CAS 2, 7.0+ ns, and is compatible with more or less all modern motherboards from socket sevens to PowerMac G4s. What's more, they offer free ground shipping. Apparently they operate out of somewhere in the EST time zone, so us Westcoastniks don't have to pay sales tax. However the company gets a mediocre to poor resellersrating, mid 3s if I recall aright. Most folks were very satisfied with their "generic" PC133, but some buyers had problems making it do CAS 2 or even 133 FSB and didn't find the company terribly responsive.

Chic Ching! Thank you MBNA for getting me $10 off of my new RAM

And E-bates for about another buck or so.

(Plus lucky for me, my credit card just rolled over to the next billing cycle at midnight tonight, and I had the will power to wait all day <wasn't easy, was worried all of you would buy them all up!> and ordered at 12:10am. Now I have about 8-10 weeks free to start waiting for that rebate to come in!)

I was just referring to the nice little &quot;ShopSafe&quot; thingy MBNA has which just so happens to generate new CC #s so I can shop 'securely' at sites. It also just so happens that while I'm now shopping confidently with my new CC# that's linked to my existing CC, as a side effect I just so happen to be shopping confidently as a new customer.

Nice deal find, Elemental. Hopped on it myself

Only thing is now Buy.com is once again telling me they don't have stock of a product they claimed to have stock of when I purchased it. Anyone else getting this? Last two times I've bought something at buy.com I've had the same problem.

Kingston ValueRAM came with four different chips (maybe more). They are Infineon, Toshiba, IBM, Nora. Infineon and Toshiba have no problem running CL2 but IBM and Nora can't. Hope that will help. I returned my Nora one and got Infineon instead.

McCarthy, it appears I have received the same semi-bad news. They didn't directly say that they're out of stock, but this is the first time I've ever received another message from them with the subject &quot;Still Looking...&quot; and they say they are &quot;still working on shipping the following item(s)&quot;.

I sure hope I eventually see this. At least I don't need it right away, but it would have been nice to have had it this week.

the 10 off is the 10 off 30 for new customer offer from buy.com...try dealpc.com for the coupon...you need to look like a new customer(not sure if this requires a new cc# or just a diff name or account or what).

Thanks 007.

I used the $10 off $30. I also had a $10 GC for signing up for some stupid spam site. Cost for me after MIR ~$27 shipped. And, I got Infinium chips. WooHoo!
