128MB RAM PNY PC100 for ~20.00after rebates

[VenGog]

could not find a valid 25 off 75 coupon code....
I did not check tech...
bensbarg.. has only 20 off 50..

 

[Hankysmoo]

I just called...there is a "-CS" in the manufacturers number at staples so i cant pricematch with onvia

 

[Hankysmoo]

I have no idea what Kenny did or maybe he just got lucky?

 

[JokerF15]

im on the phone now with a csr, she is checking the onvia page..if she says no, im gonna argue that it is the same ram blah blah blah and try to get this, I really need more memory, and for 15 bux!!!!!!!!!!

 

[mrVW]

I phoned in to do this, and right away they told me out of stock (my accuont is in SeattleCity -- DAMN, the word SEattleCity without "City" os forbidden on AnandTech?!!!).

I just got done ordering the PNY 128 PC100 from Staples CSR, pricematched with Onvia ( when I said pricematch, the guy said "with Onvia" ), he said he couldn't find a PNY part number but said the descriptions were the same so he would do it, I added some paper clips ACC72380 for .16 cents to make it $75.15, used the $25 off $75 coupon, came out to $54.66 with free shipping.

$179.97 memory
-104.98 PM
= 74.99
+ .16 clips
= 75.15
- 25.00 coupon
= 50.15
+ 3.01 MI tax
= 53.16
+ .33 stamp
= 53.49
- 40.00 rebate
= 13.49

 

[Hersh]

<< $89.99 List

[Fooey]

Alphaz, we're pricematching it with Onvia.com

 

[drac747]

Schweeeeeeeeeet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

$59.25 was my total - $40 PNY Rebate via St@ples = $19.25

Schwiiiiiiiing!

Thanks VenGod. Ewe r0oL.

 

[luv2chill]

does anyone know if there is a quantity limit when pricematching? I need to order about eight of these for work and it looks like the rebate doesn't limit quantity at all, but when I call to pricematch, can I do that and then order eight of them? Anyone know Staples policy on that?

Thanks

[Hankysmoo]

arggg....u lucky ba$tards. i guess i should keep on trying?

 

[silent tone]

Just got shot down on the onvia pricematch.

Do they have multiple callcenters?

 

[GeekSupportCom]

yo guys. just got mine

it was funny, when i told the dude i wanted to price match their 128MB PC100 PNY the guy interruped me and said &quot;With Onvia for $74.99?&quot; LOLOL

anyways, i got it with the $20 off $50 code.

if you get the same guy, he has a low voice and sounds like he swings with the other crowd ;p
he seems cool cause he did it really fast and didnt even bother having me wait on hold for him to verify the onvia site.

my total was $50 something. i'm in So. Calif and it'll be shipped this tuesday

i'm one happy camper

LAWICD

 

[Wedesdo]

Got it!

Ram - $74 pricematched + rubberbands + tax = $79 - $25 coupon = $52 - $40 rebate = $12 for 128 Mb of ram

muhahahah!

This is called the &quot;AnandEffect&quot;

 

[drac747]

If you get shot down, CALL AGAIN. You will get another CSR who will not be such an @ssh0le and will do it.

The odds of getting the same CSR are pretty high so keep trying.

 

[silent tone]

anybody have the name of the csr that hooked them up?

 

[OS]

I tried and the guy wouldn't let me do it. Went through some incredibly lame story about how they have a different part number which is higher quality or some bs like that. Oh well, I've never really had luck with pricematches

 

[Hankysmoo]

WOOHOO, i just got in, if at first u dont succeed....press redial and try again

 

[stso]

The manufacture number that staples has is &quot;64174ESEM-CS&quot; I just called and the CSR told me that
Can't PM .... gotta try again ..... with me luck .....

 

[JokerF15]

tell the stupid staples csr, that if they dont pm it, u will get 35000 anandtechers on their
A$$!!!!!!!!!



does the rebate have a limit? if not, i should buy 50 more!!!!!

lol
