Sizzling hot deal!!! Voodoo3 2000 $13 VOODOO3 3000 $21!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[JokerF15]

HELLO! you can buy a voodoo3 2000 for only 21 bux after mail in rebate! here's how you do it goto www.upgradeplanet.com tell the staples rep to pricematch the voodoo3 2000 which is 53 bux + 9.99 shipping. the total will be 63 bux use the 20 off 50 coupon found at any coupon site (techbargains.com) and the total is 43 dollars + tax! than goto EDITED (email me for the 30 dollar off rebate form) so the total is 13 + tax! it also works with the voodoo3 3000. just goto www.pricewatch.com and get the lowest price..i think it's 69 bux. than they add 12 bux shipping. which is 81. use the 20 off 50 and the 10 off 30 coupon and than it's 51. use the mail in rebate for a total of 21 dollars. (you can use two coupons because the total is 80. so u use the first coupon 50 are subtraced. so 31 is left...that means you can use the 10 off 30 to cover that...if you get a bad csr rep and he/she wont let you do it...than just use the 25 off 75 and it's 26 bux!!! i can't order any of these because it is sold out in the bay area. ALL the VOODOO3 cards ARE WHAT A JOKE!!! so if someone wants to buy me one and send me one! i will pay you!!!!

Who is the rebate from?

 

[JokerF15]

the rebate is from 3dfx... i think!

 

[KBtrade]

ummm...upgradeplanet.com has oem 3DFX cards where as Staples are retail cards, good luck getting a price match.

 

[JokerF15]

actually they do pricematch it...if you get a good csr...i did it myslef..than rite before they took my credit card...after all the pricematching and coupon stuff was done they tell me it's out of stock in my area! well...it works!

 

[psxjunky]

Never mind !

 

[PistachioByAzul]

Err, since the deal is dependant on getting a good CSR it's not really that hot.

Thanks for posting the deal..I may try to get in on it locally I have very coopereative local employees.

 

[jasonj]

OK How do you get to stack coupons? I haven't been able to get 1 csr to do that (bad luck?).

 

[JokerF15]

well...the rule is that...the total for the coupons that is 30 + 50 must be less than the total price. so that if you use the 10 off 30 and the 20 off 50 the total should be more than 80 dollars. this was told to me by a staples csr. so it is true and not dependant on hear say!...

 

[unknown]

is anybody having any luck finding these in stock. If so, do you have the catalog number. When I do a search for "3dfx" only the PCI card shows up. I am, of course, looking for an AGP.

Joker - You must have dealt with a very rare CSR. I have NEVER gotten away with trying to stack dollars off coupons. Is it against Staple's policy. If you can figure out a way for us talk to the same CSR you did, then we have a hot deal!

 

[JokerF15]

as i mentioned above...if the cdr doesn't let u stack the coupons than use the 25 off 75....it shold be 26 bux after the rebate...which isn't bad =)

also... for the stackable coupons to work...u must be ovre 80 bux..so like if you want to use the 10 off 30 and the 20 off 50 it must be over 80...that's what the csr told me right now! i called to make sure...well hope everyone find em in stock..i couldn't =( stupid staples!

 

[DragonSlayer81]

Nice Tip!

 

[FrontlineWarrior]

I still haven't gotten my v3 rebate.

 

[LuZeR]

i did something similar with the voodoo3 @ buy.com because staples didnt sell em anymore, and pricematched after-the-fact @ First Source. they claim its retail ($85) and buy.com thinks so also. then used the MIR. (havent sent it out yet).

 

[uncouth]

my mail thanks. I need a new video card and would appreciate recieving the rebate...

 

[Soulcannon]

Do the Voodoo3s do SLI? If so, this would be a damned good deal...

 

[Milkyman]

voodoo3's do not do sli

 

[jdparsons]

How about this combo -- from buy.com:

Voodoo 3 3000 RTL $108.95
Promise ATA/66 card (soon to be fasttrak) $20.53 (could be anything ~$20)
-$15 off from current promo coming in through ebates
$120.58 with shipping.

-$23.50 off from pricematch to firstsource (as mentioned above)
-$30 rebate from 3DFX
-$3 -- 3% ebates deal
Total ~$64 for a V3-3000 and a promise card...Alright by me. (I never was good at stacking Staples c*upons anyhow...)

Edit: Well, scratch part of that -- you can't pricematch if you use a coupon...so add $15 to the price. (Not quite so good now...)

 

[JokerF15]

so if i pricematch i can't use a coupon? wtf! man....hmm...stupid staples is out of stock or it would work hella good!

 

[jdparsons]

roger that.

 

[uranium]

well, let's see a more realistic figure then.

V3 3000 w/TV out $86
shipping $8
rebate -$30
----------------------
total $64 shipped

not bad to me. anyone else?

 

[jasonj]

Not bad, but nowhere near $21....
