I assume it is Office Depot

 

[Mookie]

Yes this is Office Depot. The OD ad in today's paper has the same price. I bought this 4 weeks ago for the same price. No complaints. Comes with Nero 5.5

One of the Office Depot honored my Staples In-Store Coupon(Email Print).
If it works for you guys, you can get it further cheaper.
Good luck !

I printed the $20 off $75 online coupon and they let me use it anyway. Also, the officedepot $30 MIR didn't print out so they dropped the price for me. So, I got it for $99 - $20 MIR. Anyone have the link to the officedepot $30 MIR? or can someone please PM me a scanned MIR of the $30 or link it. Thanks, hopefully someone can help me out


-Joe
P.S.: too bad they scanned it as $150 and just gave me credits to subtract from the total of else we can go to Bestbuy and get them to PM it then use the $30 MIR.

Both rebates want the original UPC and original bottom flap of the box. How is that going to work?

 

[justinconspicuous]

i was wondering if i could pricematch this after rebates to BB... cuz BB only offers a 30 MIR to get it down to 149... you think they'd let me drop it down to 129 - 30 MIR to match OM? i'm interested in this cuz i have a $50 gift card to BB.

 

[airbus]

Bump for question.

How can we send in the original UPC and bottom flap to both rebate offers???

 

[villagepeople]

I called RebateExpress/Expressgroup.
This is the one with a Walled Lake,MI address.

CSR says, they will accept Photo copies of the UPC/Bottom Flap of the product.

Please post, if somebody else called and checked the same issue.

 

[fwfan]

Awesome, maybe I can scan my receipt and UPC/Bottom Flap of the product and try to get the $30 MIR. It'll knock the price down to $49.99 for me if that's the case. I doubt they will realize that I got the credit since it's on a seperate receipt (credit back to me). Hopefully their system isn't that advance or they don't check.

for all those who got credit and didn't get the MIR can try to send it in Rebate Link

Why are you mad? Shouldn't you turn that :| into a

 

[esquared]

What gives? The website says it's 199.99. I added it to my cart and it's still 199.99. I don't see the deal here.

 

[RobK]

Hello slow people. Perhaps the quote "STARTING TOMORROW" will help you understand.

 

[esquared]

Wow! Speaking of slow people. Perhaps the quote starting tomorrow, which was posted on Saturday, would mean the 149.99 price starts Sunday, which was yesterday.

 

[justinconspicuous]

does anyone have a staples or office depot printable coupon that i could use in the store?
please post it.
thanks.

 

[cheeto]

Can someone give me a link to the yamaha MIR

 

[azdollars]

The second one is the one you want.

 

[airbus]

I just bought the Yamaha 24X at Office Depot, but it is the Business Edition (CRW3200EBEK) - I can't find anymore info about it online (even yamaha's site).

Does it have the Audio Master quality mode??? It does not say so on the box (don't want to open it until I know for sure).

I assume it does (just different software package). If anybody knows, please post. Thanks.

 

[yodayoda]

the price has been lowered online--it is now $149 there too:

so you don't need to go to the store to do this. hot find! this drive reviewed very well against all the oterh 24x drives in a review at tomshardware.

<< From the tests carried out on these eleven 20x or 24x burners, we may conclude that, on the whole, most have satisfactory features and performance. We can, however, cite two in particular: the Plextor 241040A and the Yamaha CRW3200E. They have results as excellent as they are consistent, and, furthermore, they have an extended guarantee and after-sales service that the user will appreciate. The Yamaha is, of course, more expensive than the others, but it does have 8 MB of cache and advanced functions such as the Mount Rainier and Audio Master Quality Recording. Not far behind these two is the Teac CD-W524E, which offers solid, reliable performance, and is to be recommended. >>

Did anybody else buy this from Office Depot?

I do not have much experience with rebates and have a question.

I bought the drive and received two receipts (both are "rebate receipts" for the two different rebates). Each "rebate receipt," however, asks to fill out the "rebate coupon form (or copy)" and provide a copy of the "original office depot sales receipt."

Am I missing the original Office Depot receipt or is the "rebate receipt" both the original receipt and the rebate coupon form on one strip of paper???

If you have an idea, please post. Thanks.

Follow the Instructions of the rebate form and mail it in before the 23rd and 26th then you'll get 2 checks back in 8-10 weeks. One for $20 and one for $30.
