How about a PM against outpost for their $44.99 APC BE500 UPS? How good is CC at pricematching, especially with rebates involved?

I don't imagine that CC would price match a BE500 with a BE350 no matter the source, but you can always try.


edit: B&M price matching policy "we'll match any advertised price from a local store stocking the same new item."

online: "we'll match any advertised price from a local store stocking the same new item... In order to take advantage of our Low Price Guarantee, you must visit your nearest Circuit City store, as we do not provide on-line price matches."

My bad, should have said BE500. I bought a couple of the closeout BE350s from Staples a couple months back. Sorry. Edited previous post.

Sold out online, but instock at local stores. Will go and check it.

Got one in Tallahassee. There were still three on the shelf when I left. Clerk even printed an extra set of receipts and rebate forms. (I hate copying those loooooong CC rebate forms.) This model says 16 min run time on the front.

 

[SafetyDance]

Got one as well. There are 2 left on the shelf in N Olmstead, OH! Have to be careful as the next generation of the ES-500 was also on the shelf, it's model number is BE500C - make sure you get the BE500 (no "C").

I wonder if Staples might also blow these out as they did with the ES-350. If anyone has some inside info, please post it...

Got one in the store, Nice Deal.

 

[roamerr]

Got one in the store also. Thanks for the post. I was upset that I did not get the HP one from Staples for $29.99 but am happy now since this may be a better deal (assuming not to long of wait or hassle getting rebates....).

Another anandtech deal for me!

Frys sells the same UPC as outpost for the same price, so if you got frys next to you, PM away

[cliftonite]

Thanks

Just don't make the mistake of buying the BE500C. It says "18 minutes" while the BE500 says "16 minutes."

Rebates are valid only on the BE500.

16 hours, damn this thing must be a generator. LOL JK, I think i'll get in on this also. i've needed one for a while now.

 

[pkypkypky]

don't know where 16 hours came from, but backup time is 16minutes which seems reasonable. just saw this on slickdeals also....great deal if u don't mind rebates

 

[cappsa]

Sweet deal. I grabbed what I thought was it, and then noticed a couple buying two of them in smaller boxes than the one I had. The guy checking them out told me he didn't think the one I had was the $10 one, but he could get me one out of the back when he was finished ringing the others up. $13.49 after tax and rebates for an APC. Thanks for posting this.

 

[robsdeals]

The rebates are a pain in the a$$, be careful the original UPC goes with the $15 rebate and copy with the $45 rebate.

 

[Allister]

There are actually 2 UPCs on the box.

One is printed on the sticker with the serial number.
The second one is printed on the box itself.

 

[uwannawhat]

~~Bump~~

Nice Deal!

Anyone dare to attempt 2 sets of rebates...

I got one from my loca CC, when they still had couple. All gone in three hours.

In my past experience, my local CC will restock every Wesnday. If you missed this today, you might try on your local CC Thursday. I did this on TDK 24x12x40 CDRW drive deal, TDK 24x 50 spindle deal. I mean they are out of stock on Monday, when I came on Thursday, I scored.

Thanks for the hot deal. Finally got in on a UPS deal.
