[SOLDOUT] HP ze4101 laptop $299.50 at Staples YMMV

[winston9t4]

Just got back from Staples, based on a Staples laptop clearance notice at FW (but for a different lappy).

$599.50 (Clearance price) HP ze4101 notebook SKU 498276
-50.00 (my guy allowed it - probably will vary) $50 off $500 coupon
-100.00 ($100 MIR from HP)
-150.00 ($150 MIR from Staples)
----------
$299.50 + taxes (Total)

The ze4101 has an Athlon XP1500+, 128 MB DDR RAM, ATI 7500 video (shared memory), DVD Drive.
- no floppy, but comes with $50 rebate from HP for their USB floppy drive.

You've got to ask someone at Staples to check their inventory for Clearance laptops, since they probably will not be out. My first hot deal, so be nice!

They have these again?! :Q
OMG IF THEY DO I'M GETTING ONE!

Sweet Jebus! Is this actual laptop you buy in store right? B/c all of my stores only do the BTO stuff.

 

[winston9t4]

I got it in the store - not a BTO.

SKU?

I am sooooooooooooo on top of this tomorrow morning, Staples opens at 7AM I think.

 

[winston9t4]

Added SKU. Man you guys are fast.

Dumb Kevin wants to know, what is SKU?

Looks like im jumping on this one in the am.. since im still waiting on the ze4000 .. might cancel the 4000 if they have this 4101 at my local(s) Staples.
Does anyone have the links for the 2 rebates stated by winston9t4 ? $299.99+tax does sound sweeter then the ze4000

Which FW thread, do you remember some keywords in the title?

 

[ICR5]

found the HP $100.00HP MIR link and its valid til 2/23/03

searched Staples.com rebate center and didn't find any $150.00 MIR for HP lappies..

 

[gogeeta13]

wow, gonna stop by tommarow...HOT HOT HOT

 

[kerokeroppi82]

woah...might wanna cancel my other laptop on hold at staples and jump all over this deal if my local staples has it in stock...

 

[winston9t4]

Search for the FW thread under "1700US" and you'll find it. They didn't have that model at my Staples though. He's also got the Staples rebate linked there. I'll try to put it altogether at the top...

 

[FiDo14DiDo]

good luck finding these things. all staples around me only have BTO lappies.

called .. sold out

When theres more than one rebate like this, how do you send them both the upc ??

 

[ICR5]

Staples will allow copies since you pretty much gotta send the originals to HP, all you have to do is send them a letter explaining this (when you submit the MIR to Stasples) and the prove that there is a valid HP rebate at the same time.

This is gonna be a hot one in the am. Stay tuned!

Staples will usually accept a photocopy if there is also a manufacturer's rebate being offered.

If my local Staples has this or the Compaq 1700US on clearance I'm buying them all!

 

[ICR5]

looking for the tent as we speak.. hehe.. camping out isnt a bad idea .. or is it?

 

[RossMAN]

Wow these are currently selling for around $530 with completed auctions around $750.

Is it just me or am I dreaming about an easy $400 profit?

 

[ICR5]

This one is making bank + UPC has been removed
$762.00 + $49.99 = $812.99 plus he got the rebates coming.. not too shabby if you get more then 1
