No, they are single packs of 30 CDrs, therefore, 30x3= 90 total Cdr's

EDIT: Shadowedge beat me to it

Funny, I don't see the PNY 64MB TI4200 on that list...

Maybe pkananen and himachal are working from different source materials or choosing only some items. I don't see any of pkananen's deals on himachal's list.

 

[mdp7]

thanks

 

[DanFungus]

awesome

Thank you for taking the time to post this!

 

[Darn]

Great deals thanks gor the post.

One note of caution ...if you can't afford to loan Comp USA your money for 4 months you might not want to take them up on thier rebate offers.
My brother got in on the FAR bundle with purchase of a Toshiba laptop in December. The CompUSA rebates said 8-10 weeks, but now Comp USA says that some of the rebates will not go out till late April. The rebate center said they are way behind on getting the rebates out. The other rebates ie epson, memorex all came in but the ones that went to CompUSA are all waiting to be mailed according to wheresmyrebate.com and thier 800 number.

Me worried already bought 4200 waiting to pm

 

[rightmove]

Amen to that. I'm still waiting for some rebates from Black Friday so I can buy some more stuff so I can send in some more rebates so I can clutter up the house with computer parts that don't always make it into "my next screaming machine". Can anyone relate to this?

Yes, that is their trick, and after 6 month they will tell you "..Oh, THAT rebate has EXPIRED already. Sorry!"

Or during the six month you'll get tired of calling and following up and will forget it finally.

If you really want to get back your money, ask for the store manager's name and the store's address and go to the small claims court.
At that stage they will immediately pay your rebates.

That's the only way, no BBB (ullsh*t) or complains to the "president's office" will work, it's just a waste of time.

Well, after scanning over the "deals" finally posted on CUSA's site, I must say I'm pretty disappointed. There's not really much there that you couldn't get as cheap elsewhere on the web. And those MIR's are so stupid.

Just about the only thing interesting is the 200GB WD 8MB drive for $179.99... but you get charged tax on $279.99... Yuck.

Augie

 

[magomago]

That price on the 4port router is great....

 

[HibikiRush]

I thought the Radeon 8500 AIW for $150 was pretty hot... but all these rebate complaints have me worried. Not sure if I should jump on this or wait for the 9700 AIW to drop in price.

 

[nutxo]

anyone have any idea what the 3.3mp camera for 149 is?

 

[allisolm]

297981

SC3300 3.3 Mega Pixel Digital Camera with Digital Video

The ad also says "FREE HP Photo Scanner 1000 (#286671) after rebate with purchase of any digital camera $99 and up!" says 1 per household in-store only. $29.99 less $30 CompUSA MIR.

As usual great post Allisolm, found a few things on the list I can use, and will be heading down there today.

 

[pkananen]

Have full confidence in the G4 Ti4200 guys. Its on sale. Trust me.

 

[wsmith5]

just came back from Cusa, the pny4200 is on sale, didn't buy one though the lines are unreal long..........

 

[papaschtroumpf]

CUSA also has a dazzle DV Editor Firewire card FAR. It's just a general purpose Firewire card so it doesn't have to be used for video editing but any firewire application such as external drives.
The rebate is $50 so tax and "loaning" the 50 bucks for a few month waiting for the rebate is still a bit steep.

 

[PC911mickster]

I scored one of the GF4 Ti4200's at CC for $70.99 without the rebate hassle, using the CUSA webpage. It's not a 128 mb but I'm still very happy. Already played some and it's definitely faster than the 8500LE Hercules card it replaced. Visual quality is excellent.
I love Circuit City!
