$30 BestBuy coupon for Geforce mistake

[Rainguy]

Yes, very fair of them. Thanks for the certificate Best Buy

 

[Dug]

If they only had the 4400 series of Geforce4's

I think its a smart move to give out these coupons though.

 

[Triggerhappy007]

What's good to buy with the coupon?
4-port Dlink router for free after $50 rebate?

 

[geekender]

<< Gona order me an Antec Tower >>

.....for about the same price as other places before the coupon...hehe.

I ordered one card for me, under my email, and one for my dad, under his. I got 2 coupons. Think I can combine them, for $60 off?

I did this once before when they emailed everyone $5 off coupons. I got Fast and Furious for $7.99 (17.99 minus 2-$5 off coupons). Anyone else know if these are stackable?

D.C.

oh, yes, yes, yes....free $30 just for being a forum junkie! how sweet! and i'm so glad i didn't trash BB, doesn't taint the sweetness with a crow-like aftertaste, if ya know what i mean.

Hey I'm happy about this. I didn't threaten BBY or report them to the BBB, the FTC, FDA, FCC or the FBI. They still sent me the coupon. Thank you to BBY for making this right.

oh man I am not bashing them at all

I mostly have nothing against best buy
if you ask me I think it's dumb to even start getting pissed off....just because one poor person made a mistake when he was entering a price in the computer this whole mess started
it's a people mistake, and people do make them

I think $30 is even too generous, but hey I am not gonna complain

How about this for a deal -

Sony Clie PEG-T415 msrp $249. On sale at bestbuy.com for $219 (add to your cart to see the price).

Apply $30 coupon, after tax it's $200ish.

Except that I still had my $20 coupon in my acct from when I originally signed up, so it's only $180.99 for me!!

 

[brab]

now I am only sorry that I didn't order 13 of them with all different e-mail addresses and 13 different credit cards, combined them and received the card for FREE

hahah, so evil.

 

[wjsulliv]

Anyobdy know if you can combine digital coupons?

you can pre-order "Harry Potter" on DVD and get another $10 one. That would be $40 in digital coupons.

Anybody know?

 

[Sepen]

Got mine also. I didn't expect anything, so this is a huge surprise.

 

[Kay0909]

w00t, im getting a GF4 for 179.99

 

[fruitgum]

am i alone in thinking this was quite generous of BB ?

it was clearly a mistake and they have no legal requirement to honour the deal or provide any kind of compensation.

i was pleasantly surprised to receive mine.

 

[Kay0909]

double post

 

[Snuffaluffaguss]

how bout the Mintek Multiformat DVD Player with Integrated MP3 Decoder and Karaoke Function
Model: DVD-2110 for $99 before coupon?

 

[brab]

yeah we all agree that it was generous and honorable

it even makes me all wet inside

heheheheh

the guys at FW don't wanna use the coupon and plan to pursue it by legal actions still

 

[Zwingle]

I am gonna hold for now, I got until the end of the month, prices always go down......plus, I think the wait might be worth it....if thier asses were so covered in the ToS, they wouldn't have bothered to send anything at all.......they are scared now. They know alot of people (400-500) will use the $30 coupon, therby waiving thier right to any other settlement. Best Buy can then send the card to maybe 700-800 people at the $129.99 price, lowering thir overall loss for the screw up, intentional or not.

 

[YeloAggie]

i used it to purchase a gift certificate and it worked!!! dunno if imma get it but i will let you all know. BB rocks!!!!!

 

[mchammer187]

25 bux for Virtua Fighter 4! w00t

 

[wesbc]

I agree, very generous... I might expect mabye 10... 20 at most. But 30 was a nice surprise.

Yes, double post... as said above already.

 

[theedge]

Got a couple of DVDs for $8! Not bad...

<< if thier asses were so covered in the ToS, they wouldn't have bothered to send anything at all.......they are scared now. >>



I don't know Zwingle....I think they are doing it from a PR standpoint......I think legally they are covered.
