Radeon 5870 376.04 or 5850 284.26 +FS +no tax in CA at Tiger Direct after Bing Cashba

[Triglet]

I'm only finding 8.3% for TD -- maybe I'm doing it wrong, haven't done much Bing Cashback yet.

When I did it, I searched for "Tom Tom" and it displayed 15% in the side add. There are other combonations that might work as well. The CB might have gone back down though.

I searched for motherboard, and it only showed 8.3%, so it appears to have gone back down.

Yes, it looks like it's down to 8.3%. You really have to jump at these TD deals. Their CB will only stay high for a day or two at most. In this case, it looks like it was 24 hours, because the day before it was 10% and now it's even lower than that. I've been monitoring it for a while.

 

[smackababy]

It seems like it jumps pretty regularly. It was up to 15% last week, and again this week.

ugh... to think we could have all gotten a powercolor 5850 for under $240 shipped back in last october! not really blaming ATi for that, just lamenting my poor decision making skills

I got a call from TigerDirect today.. they asked me a bunch of questions to 'ascertain my identity'... I didn't think to ask at the time.. but I am pretty sure they ran a credit check on me, asking questions like what year is my car, length of residence, etc..

I'll probably never buy from here again (second time)... I'll stick to newegg.

Did you use the preferred account to get the extra $20 off?

 

[zoiks]

Back to 15% cashback. Hurry if you want to avail.

$48 cashback on 5850. Total $272 after CB.

Nope, just bing.com cashback and my Visa.

 

[kalrith]

They jacked up the prices of the base model. It makes no sense to purchase anything cheaper than the XFX XXX model since it's $4.25 more than the base model and actually less than the Visiontek ACB. The XFX Black is $12.75 more ACB than the XXX, so the XXX seems to be the best buy right now at $276.25 ACB.

 

[konakona]

yep, BCB is back up to 15%

 

[GiN]

A little off topic, but I snagged a i5-750 for $154 after bing at TD. Now all I need is a gpu and I'm set for my new pc.

 

[aggressor]

Awesome, I picked up the XFX XXX 5850 just now. I was going to do it yesterday and got bummed out at the cashback going down, yet here it is at 15% again.

 

[Termie]

Just got my XFX 5850 XXX today. Arrived two days after ordering it from TD. And the Cashback showed up instantly on Bing.

 

[konakona]

just ordered too, BF2BC here I come!

BCB wasn't instant, we will see how long that will take.
EDIT: BCB is now posted

 

[Triglet]

Schweet -- in for the XXX. BCB went to pending instantly.

Thanks for the find!

Definitely join us on the [ATOT] BC2 server! I think we all got a pretty sweet deal on the XXX.
