though I never got my 566celly or optical $10 mouse from byecomp (still in limbo warehouse or something) I just received confirmation that my 10 128meg sodimms shipped out. You win some and lose some!

 

[WyattBurp]

Cmv,

Yes! Definitely Moan!

I ordered mine on June 23rd and still do not have it. I got a $20 coupon from dotdeals.com and free shipping. On the original thread it
seemed like others WERE getting it. Maybe I am wrong. The message
they keep sending me is:

"The following item(s) are still not in stock:

item sku #10253839 CELERON 566MHZ 128K L2 CACHE PGA370 PROCESSOR 3 YR WARRAN

We will continue to work hard to ship your item(s) to you.

If you wish to cancel your order for this item, or if you
have any questions, please visit customer support at ..."

I'm still waiting for my Jelly Bellys! Our postman does appear to be gaining weight though.

I got my HP DeskJet 930 / E-Stamp Rebate today! $175.00!! I sent mine in pretty quick after getting the printer, sent in the side bar code. Today I receive my check, and it is from E-Stamp, not Buy.com or HP! I even used the $20 coupon, and doctored my receipt to get rid of it! I love it.

 

[CyberTiger]

i got my encarta rebate today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Got my APC Surgearrest freebie from a signup on here long ago.
Didn't think I made it, it's a very nice surge protector with
phone protection as well.

Don't buy from accessmicro.com, they sucks, I ordered a jaz media, it was around 72, with shipment around 5. They cancelled my order, don't know why. and I just checked their price for the same item, it's 92, and shipment 8.9!!!

 

[SolidAir]

I got my Plextor 12/10/32, and it's sweet!

 

[Richard Berg]

s: Talk to them & moan! You'll probably be able to talk them into setting you straight - I know their new head CSR (hired to eliminate this kind of sh*tty service), he's a great guy.

w00t! Got my $100 buy.com / e*trade coupon in the email just now!

 

[Doomguy]

tk: Yep the surge kicks ass I got mine acouple days ago and was suprised since this deal was SO LONG AGO!

Well, I just got the free HP Inkjet printer cleaning kit and the free CDR from Falcon Graphics today. But at the same time, I just received an e-mail from HP notifying me that they ran out of stock on the HP windbreakers and will not be sending me one. Oh well.. I really wanted one of those. Did anyone here end up getting one?

Oh well, this seems to be the date for rejections.. also heard from Quantum and they also exhausted their supply of the free Black & Decker cordless screwdrivers they were giving out after their Snap server demonstration.

I got my check from UBid today for that $20 new winning bidder promo. For those interested, I mailed it in on or about June 25th. Kudos to UBid for making good.

BTW, I am new. When I post a message there is a box called
"Subscribe to Thread". What does that do?

Click on that box and whenever there is another post in that thread you will get an e-mail advising you that it has been updated.

bleh just got an e-mail today from "HP_Program_Manager@Centric-corp.com"


Thank you for your interest in the HP windbreaker. Unfortunately, demand far exceeded our supply, and there are no more windbreakers available.

We're sorry for the inconvenience this may cause you. Without our authorization, many websites linked to our promotion, which drove the demand much higher than anticipated. We targeted our promotion only to IT and small business web users; however, other websites chose to carry our offer and may not have removed it in time or indicated, as we did on our site, that the promotion was limited to while supplies lasted.

We'd like to offer you an opportunity to go back to our websites for information on our storage products as well as a free newsletter:

http://www.hpdataprotection.com for small business or
http://www.flexible-autobackup.com for IT users.

Thank you for your interest in HP products.

I received my Calvin Klein cologne, which I forgot about. I also got my free Six Flags ticket. Sometimes well this one time, it pays to be on AOL. Now to wait for my PIII 700E and pointclick to gimme my damn check.

 

[stonerdave]

WooF! July has been nice to me! Nomad 2 for $50...HP 930c printer for almost nothing (with $20 off coupon), mini-MagLite, laser pointer, and yamaha YST-MS30 speakers for $10. I feel bad now about cheating buy.com with the $50 coupon (64Mb Smartmedia card for $80), but I foolishly invested in them and lost $200, so I guess it averages out.

same message as vinny. no windbreaker for me. just personal info for them

 

[Rainguy]

I got the Windbreaker and it was one of the best things I have received. Great quality.

Moderator I just noticed this in my inbox today, dated: Monday, July 24, 2000 3:09 PM...

Please explain this threatening e-mail letter to me from you or whomever.

Thanks! Because it really upset me... JackSBCali


What part of NO COUPON NUMBERS do you not understand? It is not OK to post ways to defraud vendors on our forum. One more post like yours in the "Free T-Shirt from ADIC" thread will be your last on AnandTech.

PS: You are really way off base with this accusation... TIA

Got the E-Stamp rebate today....woooo. I sent mine to them in late June I think. This has to be the best deal I have seen here since I've been doing this. Phatty...

 

[ArgyleSox]

I just got a free military.com t-shirt!
Now all I have to do is find a place I can wear this without getting my ass beat.

 

[EmperorNero]

can other do what Fr did? he was bragging about getting his free stuff and gave the link to the thread that has info about that stuff - so everyone who reads this will know what the brag is about and how to get the stuff too.
