250GB Samsung 840 - ~$76

[NickelPlate]

Crap, gone already.

 

[MontyAC]

I ordered one, will see what happens.

 

[Xpage]

missed the boat...

 

[frostedflakes]

ordered 1

don't know what I'm going to do with it though since my main PC already has a SSD

eBay.

I already have a 250GB 840 that's not even half way full, otherwise I'd slap it in my desktop.

All assuming by some miracle it actually ships out, of course.

In the early 2000's, I and my wife managed to get $1,700 worth of new Nike, Adidus and Reebok shoes plus tents, camping equipment, etc. for $106 from a 'big named sporting goods place'. We managed to get 10's of thousands worth of stuff for hundreds of dollars. Many more deals similar including free or 'paid to take' deals. That was the age of true hot deals.

+1 I miss those days
At least BF was decent until about ~2006, then it all went downhill.

I don't think those kinds of deals/pricing were sustainable for retailers.

Ha I used to manage wireless stores back then. Drove me nuts when people seriously expected my store(s) to lose money honoring online/best buy/radio shack/circuit city crazy stupid low prices.
I used to tell them I would rather save that device for someone who actually made me a few dollars and actually had a chance of coming back to buy something else. Used to drive me nuts that unless I was at or below cost somehow I wasn't servicing them right.

Don't know why this is here...someone obviously made a currency error. Should have been 76 BPS not USD

No I was saying exactly how it probably happened. Probably a US agent working in the UK suddenly and mispriced the item.

My order for four haven't been cancelled yet. I'm thinking I really need a 360GB+ SSD. Perhaps I eBay a couple and pick up a larger Samsung 840 EVO or Intel 530/335???

...of course that's if this isn't cancelled...

[Tweak155]

I got cancelled too. Oh well

 

[lavaheadache]

Woke up to a cancellation as well

 

[MontyAC]

Same here, order was cancelled.

 

[SithSolo1]

Well that just freed up another $200 for Star Citizen, no huge loss.

Finally a Samsung Solid State Drive™ made just for stay at home moms like me that finds basic computational tasks and picture viewing difficult.

 

[Engineer]

Knew it was a long shot. Too bad.

On to the next deal!

 

[Rio Rebel]

It's almost worth having my order cancelled to know the ebay fleas won't be making a profit.

 

[Miknow]

darn was building a new computer and needed this bad o well.

 

[Sohaltang]

Did anyone get a refund?

 

[Rio Rebel]

I got a cancellation email. I assume they just put a hold on the cc and then removed it.

 

[WhoBeDaPlaya]

Dang, struck out
