Maxtor 40 Gig Staples/Office Depot price match

[MSNY]

The Maxtor 40 gig ATA/100, retail 7200rpg drive at Staples for $99.94 on sale price, regular priceing.

Office Depot, same drive spec for $129.99 - $30.00 rebate/

So I went to Office Depot bought the drive for price match of $99.94 - $30.00 rebate = $69.00 final cost.

Nice deal !

Enjoy !

Nice! I got one of those at OD a few weeks ago. It was the ATA133 one and it smokes!

Did you PM using the Staples Internet site, or is there a Staples local to you?

These PM things with OM and OD are always subject to the whim of the manager on duty, but I'll definately give it a shot tomorrow.

Thanks!

you think it is possible to use the 10% off over $50 to sweeten this deal or does the pricematching not allow this?

 

[dajo]

I have a $10 off $50 coupon that was mailed to me. I'm hoping to use that to get it down to $59.99 AR.

I don't know why you couldn't use a coupon in addition to PMing, but then it all depends on the manager.

 

[lilstevo]

do you know if you can order online and then call after you get the order to get the pricematch or you have to do the pricematch during the order for OD?

If you use the coupon too. pick up another item you might need at the same time. It makes your purchase look good to the cashier without any flack about the coupon & PM together. If you bought and didn't need the second item, return it within 14 days. No flack then either

I did this a few weeks ago 3 times... only I added a coupon to my cart at Staples.com ($100-$30) so Office Depot pricematched me at $70 and I got the $30 rebate.
$40 final cost.

 

[madalien]

Flight23, I have never PM online, did you give OD.com people the URL for your Staples cart with the coupons listed to get the extra good price match? Or how exactly did you get the Staples coupons to also be added? Thanks

 

[mechsiah]

Wow- that was easy. The $49.95 (no tax in Oregon) was a piece of cake. Place your order online using the $20 of $75 coupon (see the FW link above), call the office depot order center, and tell them you saw it at staples for $99.95. The guy who helped me changed it on the spot. $49.95 after rebate- not too shabby.

 

[mystuffs]

thanks, just order one it only take less a min. to pm. all i did is gave them the order number and they gave me the new total.

 

[cmv]

Wowsers... I gotta go ahead and do this. Hope Staples doesn't change the price on me tomorrow.

 

[geekender]

1) followed f*wallet link above to get the $20 off
2) placed the order with OD
3) called 1-888-463-3768 told them my order number and the staples sku and price ($99.94)
4) price is now $86.34 - $30.00 MIR = $56.34 w/ taxes

staples sku: 428386
OD sku: 368121

BTW: the OD CSR was very nice

Damnit double post.

Thanks for the links, I really needed a new hard drive. The price was so good I got two.

 

[JohnMellencamp]

Nice deal and thanks for making it real simply boa This is a done deal if I can do it then anyone can I just hope you don`t get the same OD csr as I did as I couldn`t hear a word she said I was going to get in on the best buy deal but with tax and the bigger cash outlay this seemed like a better deal .

 

[Maximin]

I got this drive from BB a couple wks ago. It's Ultra ATA 133!
ATA 133 sticker is on the box!

 

[dajo]

They did it! I don't have a local Staples so I didn't know if they would honor the PM from an Internet printout but they did. It was also clearly marked ATA133 on the box.

Final including tax was $108.06-$30 MIR=$78.06 total for what I know to be an awesome drive.

Thanks for the heads up on a very good deal!

 

[Lmandrake]

Remember that if you don't succeed with one CSR, try, try again and be nice.

CSR 1 - Called Staples, did the price match, but: "We can't give you an online coupon over the phone."

So I placed order using website, then called to price match.

CSR 2 - "Is that a sales price?" I said its in their weekly ad. "We don't pricematch to sales prices."

Nearly cancelled order, didn't. Called again.

CSR3 - Called Staples to verify the price. Eternity on hold. Gave price match. $84.54 before rebate...

For some reason, the CSR's are frequently not on the same page. Of course, that is more likely to be so when the deal first breaks....

Thanks for the post. I don't have AMEX Blue so the 120G WD HDD deal from Best Buy does not work on me. $56 with tax for a 40G HDD is still a decent price. Just score one.
