Dead. New egg is really starting to piss me off with their "48 hour deals" that don't usually last 24 hours. It looks like Amazon will continue to get my business.

It's a question of stock and manufacturer limits. For example, if Crucial says you can sell X units at this sale price (of which Crucial will take X amount lower than it normally takes for each unit), and forums like this one send a rush of people to buy that stock, the deal might be over before the 48 hours ends. It's in the fine print on every Newegg deal. It's frustrating sometimes, but it's rarely Newegg's fault directly.

This was a great deal, but they've been coming up lately...keep on it and you'll get on one soon enough. Also, you can sign in to Newegg to get price alerts on certain things, and then you'll never miss a deal. I've done that before with SSDs and RAM, and it works very well.

EDIT: Also, if you're still interested, Amazon has it for $230 shipped.

In for one at Amazon, I will gladly pay extra so I don't have to deal with Newegg anymore, sad that its come to this.

Yeah exactly i always miss these good deals too. and neweggs gets out of stock pretty quickly. Amazon brings back more often tho.
i have signed up for Newegg. you can't really tell if the deal is hot or just warm. i normaly find the computer deals on this forum.

You can usually get an idea of how good a deal is using the Camelizer plugin for your browser. Google Camelizer to find the right one for your browser.

I bought mine for $260 a few weeks ago I didn't get the best deal, but these drives are fantastic. Crucial never disappoints me when it comes to SSDs.
