I had a fairly nice CSR who kept me on hold for about 5-10 minutes to tell me she can't PM because they are OOS online. I didn't think of asking her to call the 3 local stores I have nearby...dammit. In either case, she said that there's 14 days to PM and if BB.com gets it into stock, to give them a call again.

here's the link to BestBuy's $110 version.

I think I need to get in on this deal...

BestBuy.com has it available again. Just called a Staples CSR and got the drive for Next day shipping free, total is ~$93 or so with taxes. $.77/MB isn't bad. I should be getting it tomorrow.

Staples rocks...and thanks to all those that helped in the thread.

Yes...scored one too at $93.00!

Thanks for the post and all the details

 

[mazir]

Thanks for the deal.

Got it for $83 shipped, on its way now.

The mechanical pencil I added to get over $150, is still processing, i hope there are no problems with it. It's the main reason I ordered the hard drive.

BTW, I did the whole price match online, didn't have to speak to any of those CSR's. You can get to it through the help/policies at the Staples site.

man just tried to get this drive..and daam best buys were closed when the CRS tried to PM...the dam thing opens in like 5 min...

so gonna try and keep u updated on the progress. btw i found a $30of 150 coupon. use SKU 103523(THIS IS NOT A COUPON CODE) to add .49 cents to ur total and use the coupon.

I got the coupon at FW. just search them to find it.

TIA

Man the stupid CRS was like going to charge me shipping..then i told here that BB deal is in a B&M..she's like ooh is it..i was like yeah women..

anywhoo she's call them now as we speak. i know my BB has that drive in stock..so no prob.

Ordered online, called CS a bit later and was quite a pleasant experience although the entire pricematching thing hasn't been finalized yet. I basically called in a bit early so the system didn't charge my CC yet. I have to call back later to verify everything since he did okay the pricematch in the logs. I just hope the next CSR isn't a %*@ about it =T. The phone call didn't take more than 5 minutes...

So as of now, if everything works out, I got the pricematch and was able to use the $30 coupon.

 

[webley]

The PM actually worked the first time this time.. usually it's taken several tries in the past. Thanks Lurker and sk3tch for the nice deal.

 

[Nickolas98]

Just got it. All I did was place the order on Staples site. Used the $30 off $150 order (after adding a box of wooden pencils). Less than 2 minutes later, call 18003staples. Got them to price match. total was about $76 shipped.

GREAT POST!!!

 

[Lurker501]

I'm glad my first deal post was "not bad"

Sorry to those that weren't able to take advantage of this deal.

Lurk

 

[clay123]

Ya i had to pay tax in CA so mine was 85, still an awesome deal.

EDIT: I should get it tommorow with the free next day shipping.

 

[dcdomain]

Tax: $8.43
Total: $128.90
Pricematch: ~$40+
Total: ~$85+

Not bad for this drive =D. Damn the tax!!!

 

[sak]

Ok i finally got the drive. and man its a good deal imho. especially if i'll be able to sell my old $120Gb 2mb WD..(which is an awesome drive in its own right). for about the same price to someone.

 

[tnt2]

I ordered the hd w/ something to put the total over $150, used $30 off $150 coupon, had dinner, just called to PM to BB $109.99 price + 10%.

 

[Mark]

so do they pm these even though the bb drive has a bb rebate?

Yes

 

[freshspace]

Hey you guys,

I tried the in-store thing with the 160gb drive. The manager was willing to pricematch to pre-MIR, which was $179. He then told me to download the MIR. He didn't budge. I said Thanks and left the store.

 

[sk3tch]

In-store is your prob...obviously. 99% of the people that got these deals (whether for the 160GB, 120GB, 80GB or 100GB+20GB) did it online and/or on the phone with a CSR. Just read up...learn...and do.

 

[Polar2002]

tempting

 

[HappyNic]

I ordered using the $30 of $150 coupon, wait 10minutes, then call staples 18003staple, got this nice CSR lady, waited about 2-5 for her to check on Bestbuys price and got the PM, she said she'll deduct around $44, so my total for the Drive would be $85. This is a excellent deal ,, Thanx..

But I was in hurry back to work I forgot to ask for somekind of comfirmation number, am I suppose to get a number??

 

[Mark]

so i get i on this and order, call back in an hour, and pricematch it but he/she doesn't approve it, i can just cancel the order correct?

 

[sk3tch]

Yes, you can cancel.

And no, you don't get some kind of confirmation number...but it is wise to get the CSR's name. Anyway...no biggie...just watch your CC statement/online account and make sure the charges/credits line up to what she/he stated on the phone. Good luck.
