nice..

im doing this deal.

 

[xDrAGoNx]

Getting free stuff is one thing, but making money to take stuff brings this deal to a whole new level of goodness. I'm in.

Edit: Whoops answered my own question

 

[everman]

Any comments on the quality of the verbatim drive? I've heard they're not that great.

Well shucks, I guess I'll pass. I would've let them pay me $15 if the drive were any good. J/K!

Last time I was looking for a CD-RW, Verbatim was using Lite-ON drives, which are considered quality drives.

 

[atac]

isn't there tax on these items, at least in cali anyway?

 

[Bonesdad]

Just got one of these drives at Xmas...NOT A LITE-ON....not saying that some arent lite-on, but mine ended up being an OptiRite or some damn thing....be careful...and dont trust the part # on the box either.

 

[movinslow]

if this works, I'm in too! couldn't justify spending money to have a fast burner.

 

[xBopx]

I've been lookin for a deal on cdrs...I'm leary about rebates though. Although free is the best deal you can get eh?

I own a Verbatim 40x12x48...that incidently I bought @ Staples via some rebate goodness a few months ago I love it! I've burned everything, from music cds, to a backup of a copy-protected game using disc-at-once (it was legal, honest). It flies, and burn-proof is beautiful. I've NEVER had a coaster with this drive...unlike my old 2x8 Mitsumi. Like any other drive, doing a CD to CD copy may be limited by the speed of your source drive (i can only manage 24x in this mode w/my 40X cd-rom; higher makes burn proof kick in due to data loss). Hard drive to CD @ full 40x. It's a beautiful thing... I can only wager an educated guess that the 48x speed model is of equivalent quality.

Absolutely amazing deal here, wow..:Q

 

[Aagiants]

Definately Getting on this.. With all these deals, im gunna have too much hardware...

But the question is WHAT DRIVE TO GET

I know With Cendyne, u either get lite-on or crap...

 

[OneStepsAhead]

One way to tell if a Verbatim is a Lite-On without opening the box is to look at the serial number sticker on the outside of the box.

Serial number of 12 digits, no letters == Lite-On.

Then again, the amount of rebadging that goes on is just incredible! I have in a box on my desk (previous deal) a Cendyne 32x12x40 carton which contains a Verbatim drive, which is itself a rebadged Lite-On!

Yeah, both Cendyne and Verbatim are slow with rebates (I'm still waiting for the Cendyne DVD-Rom rebate from OM's Black Friday deal), Hi-Val is even worse. But these checks do eventually come.

 

[Cybordolphin]

My ad shows the Cendyne 48X burner $79.99 after rebates. Someone wanna enlighten me? Where does it show the drives for $59.98?
Cendyne burned me on my last rebate. The ONLY rebate I did not copy and send certified. They said they did not receive the paperwork for 3 months (bull$hit), I sent it out within 4 days from my purchase (I remembered sending it specifically).

But ALWAYS, ALWAYS, make copies and send certified. I should have known better.

It just amazes me how sleazy these companies are, and how they will try very hard to screw you if they can. They obviously have a seperate pile for the rebate forms that come in that are NOT mailed "certified".

 

[Woz]

My ad for California shows ONLY the Verbatim drive for $59 - $50 rebate. There is a Cendyne USB2 external drive listed inside for $79 AR. There is a IOMagic 52x24x52 for $49 AR.

No other CD-RW drives in my ad.

 

[RossMAN]

My ad shows Verbatim (not sure if the link will work because of stupid session ID).

In the ad they show a picture of the Verbatim, but if you look closely at the ad you can see that 3 SKU number are listed zand if and click on the link that says "Printable List" you will se the 3 different drives listed for the same $9.99 price.
