I love my EBC SFF system I picked up from Newegg for $127 an hour before they raised the price to $195. Nice system, great deal.

 

[spanky]

prolly the $22 200gb wd deal from dell

Don't Lock!

I am having a hard time remembering my Hot Deal of 2003..

 

[Engineer]

Paying $48.00 (after MIR's and sending stuff back) for a Dell 2400 system with 2.2GHz P4 and getting 2 digitcal cameras (Kodac CX6200 and CX6230) free with it. Sold CX6200 for $60.00 making my grand total of: negative $12.00

I love free systems, cameras and $12.00 to boot. Add the $9.xx Canon S530D printer from OM and I have almost a complete system for negative $3.00

 

[gopunk]

prolly the replaytv 5040 deal... that was the only hot deal i got in on haha

I'd say my best deal was the WD120SE hard drive that I PM'd to BB at CC and ended up putting $30 in my pocket after rebates.

Copy that. The deal, for those who don't remember, was:
$179.99 (base price)
- 110.00 (110% PM of the BB drive at $79.99)
- 70.00 (WD MIR)
- 30.00 (CC MIR)
+ 5.27 (tax on $69.99)
+ .74 (2 stamps)
-----------
- $24.00 profit

Dell 2350's with 1800 LCD for $580 shipped. I love the 1800 LCD 18" of greatness....

 

[RDaneel]

Mine was the Motorola FRS radios that were -$20 after MIR, which I sold on hundreds on ebay, to finance my other favorite hot deal, the 2001FP LCD!

 

[stingrayia]

Hmm that's a tough one but I'd have to say it was the Dell DJ 15G I got for filling out a Dell survey with really negative ratings. They asked what I wanted to help me stay a customer. I asked for a Axim or Dell DJ. They offered and delivered the Dell DJ. A $250 item cost me not a penny.

 

[Baldy18]

Had to have been the two HP PSC 2210's I got from Target for $63+tax each.

 

[Flair]

I wish I would have gotten that 20GB MP3 from Dell!

 

[Ionizer86]

I say the $69 + tax Toshiba e335 Pocket PC

Next up would be the $64 after coupon Memorex 2.4x DVD+RW drive (DVD burners were $200 to $250 then, and $150 with a very hot deal).

Oh yea, stacking up coupons and getting a free WD 40GB drive was cool too

 

[kof]

Either a scanner which paid about $10, or the WD 120GB hard drive for $10. Took 3 or four months for the rebates. Gotta love CC double and triple rebates!!
/Though I have to admit the DVD +/-RW I got last week - $145-md->$100-->$40 after 2 rebates is pretty darn good.

 

[AMDBOY]

Damn, those HD deals are sure hard to beat. OR any of those items where they pay you. I guess the closest I can come is the Black Friday 19" LCD from Costco for $399 AR. Or maybe the recent OM deal on the Epson CX5400 multifunction and a digital camera for $70 AR ripped from FW.

 

[Crackabot]

Dell Axim X3i for $79+tax

 

[Kroffty]

Free Peterbuilt key chain
Thanks to Jokersmoker

 

[Crank]

ReplayTV for $160 after tax - IF it pans out!

If not, then the MS 802.11G router and PCMCIA card I got for ~$60.

All those HDD deals were hard to pass up, but I just didn't need any.
