HOT!! Timex Internet Messenger Watch $32.50 w/free ship

[MontyBurns]

Something tells me there are going to be piles of these on ebay.

 

[badluck]

These come in and out of stock everyday, just check back tomorrow!!

 

[Alphacow]

Seems like they are really out of stock now though, they dont even have the page where you can buy them, or enter your e-mail address to say when they are back in stock

 

[GotComputers]

It seems they are in stock, but I see nothing about getting a year of free service. Without that, this is a no-show!

 

[GotComputers]

Looks like deal is dead, as the paging service is now looking to bill at over $100 per year.

 

[stultus]

So is it really dead?

 

[bletzinger]

Just got the brown one for $29! No coupons allowed though.

 

[GotComputers]

Yeah, I saw the $29 one, but am wondering if that includes the service?

 

[bigcfromcinci]

gotcomputers,
I believe it does include service...check this out.

 

[andrew123]

It looks like the free service only applies to the Timex Instant Messanger watch.

 

[LotusNotesGuy]

I just got mine today, thats not bad. I ordered on the 12th, delivered 15th via media mail.

I real do like Media mail, its right there whenever you get home, its dirt cheap too. No signing or chasing ups or fed ex or whomever.

I almost did not get it. The page said all 3 colors were out of stock, but I went back and clicked to it 2 or 3 times over the next minute or so and WHOOSH!!! I was able to order a blue one. Sounds like I got lucky based on all these other posts from people that tried

 

[MontyBurns]

Media mail! LOL. That's a bit of a stretch on their part. Media Mail is supposed to be for books, CDs, etc.

I would agree that buying it from the Skytel site would include the service, but their prices are way more than Timex's and I see no reference on the Timex site to free service.

As far as the 1 year free:

timex link

They show: Internet Messenger - Now With Free Skytel® Service

"When you purchase a Timex Internet Messenger watch, SkyTel® will give you one full year of unlimited nationwide paging service...absolutely FREE...on all new activations from March 1, 2002 through Dec. 31, 2002. See more detail below, or on www.skytel.com."

And right below they show the internet messenger watches with this link for styles:

View all styles and buy online

So I interpret this to mean that those styles come with 1 year free paging. I guess I'll find out when I get it.

Edit: Don't buy the pager watch, 1 year free only good for the internet messenger watch through 12/31

Thanks! Do not know how I missed that! Now, the only question I have left is how much is the service after the first year? Anyone come across that yet?

I am so tempted to order this anyone have any experience or anything with this.

 

[Sesopedalian]

Deals over, SitePromoter.

 

[MrHappyMonkey]

seems to be back in stock. When I add it to the basket i don't get an out of stock error so I guess it's back. What's the difference between the standard and pro version?

 

[jimmyhaha]

> seems to be back in stock

dream on.. dude..

the beeper wear series do NOT include 1 year service, u need to shell out $5-10 / each month

the $32 offer is only for "Internet Messenger", kicking my nuts not to get it..

anyway, hot deal is killing me, too broke..

 

[StattlichPassat]

Your order for the Internet Messenger 90081 was cancelled because our inventory was depleted before your could could be filled. There will not be any more of this style but we do have some of the 90102 and 90091 and if you would like to purchase one of these at the same price, please call our toll free number 1-800-448-4639 and place your order with an operator today or tomorrow. You are being given the choice of purchasing one of these styles at the same price as your previous order. When they are back on the web the price will be $70.

I called and she ordered me the blue one 90102 for $32...had to give the code I used and my cc info again.

 

[jamesd1343]

so u mean the $29 brown band watches i bought dont qualify for the free year of servicebec theyre beepwear watches?? thats complete crap...

 

[mrbass]

That's a fact. Yep but next time you'd be best to read what it says on the website.
