Another cheap laptop

[ksfhhllp]

Hey, does anyone live in NC? Can someone go check out the place?

This is obviously a rip off scheme

But do u think we can pricematch. The guys at fatwallet seem to think that it's possible with Sears

By the by, if links to other forums aren't allowed, someone please lmk and I'll remove it straight away.

But I don't want the FX... I want the Sony SR17...
I'm sure some CSR at Sears will do it...

People in NC... apparently, BestBuy will match "local competitors." Plus, they stock the picturebook and the z series Sony. Anyone want to try?

If anyone can give me some info on how to do an online price match w/a company that boasts pricematching for a high powered laptop let me know...i've been shopping around for lappy's for some time and this place beats all lol

If you find a place to match it let me know and i'll do it, matter of fact i'll buy a few of them, whitchever we can find from a store to match it, and i'll sell them back toyou all here for some awesome deals!!! I say let's give it a go??? E-mail me (profile) w/the subject "anandtech deal" or something like that so i don't pitch your msg. as spam and we'll see what happens. Worth a try!!!

ksfhhllp that's a GREAT idea

Fermunda I'd love to help you, but I've never pricematched before.


If anyone's interested, Bonnie called and actually wanted me to return her message regarding my purchase :Q...I don't know what to make of it!!...Should I confront her about her shady company and demand she explains all this?

When they say their doors are always open, do they mean their B&amp;M doors?

 

[hanybanoub]

I don't what it means ksfhhllp

Is anyone here from NC and is close to this place? Perhaps you can pay them a visit and see about their open doors, literally

If anyone's interested, I emailed &quot;Bonnie&quot; back, and get my email back right away because of <DELIVERY FAILURE>, then I emailed them ALL a copy of it, and guess who replies back but &quot;Bonnie&quot;!!

She says that someone will contact me for my request of payment via COD...This is truly a 'interesting' show they're putting on...I wonder where it'll lead :Q

Hey, I was reading payment options carefully.

#3: · Pay Standard price plus receive a 15% discount.

· This option is available for students only.

· Pay at time of shipment. Students who wish to prepay their order will receive an additional 5% discount. (Credit Cards not accepted)

· Automatic price reduction guaranteed.

· Receive discounted shipping charge.

· Free shipping within the Continental U.S. for prepaid orders.

· Student Customers are only permitted to purchase one product per 60-day period.

· Student Customers must submit valid student identification by fax or email before their order will be processed.

It says that you get 15% off and you pay at time of shipment. Prepayment gets you 5% (but no credit card).
So what about ordering with option 3, but not prepaying? You still get 15%, but you pay with CC and screw the extra 5%.
Any input? Have they tried to bill people before shipment?
