how do i know how much CB is being offered? I'm looking at Abe of Maine which has 5-26%....i added an item to my cart and it doesn't say anything as to how much CB the item is.

edit:

using the CB link and 'logging in', I get the same price when I use a different PC and go straight to the website.

I see no good deals here at all. All the "deals" Zipzoom has can be had for new off any number of other retailers or even eBay.

Few and far between anyways. Too hard work to find a deal. The XFX GTX 295s are a decent enough deal, if you trust that brand, and you can't upgrade from them. (I wouldn't buy anything other than BFG or EVGA at that price at this point)

I bought this monitor last week from Amazon for $255 AR, and it rocks. At $215, this purchase should be a no-brainer.

So how does one tell what discount one is going to get at these stores offering a varied percent off?

Bah!

I searched Bing.com shopping for "Core 2 Quad" and it quoted me a price of $175.99 at Zipzoomfly. Followed the link and ZZF jacked up the price to $249.99, making the final price (-20%) $196.79.

This is bullshit. :disgust:

Search for the item itself under bing cashback. It will tell you the exact % that the stores are offering on that particular item.

ZipZoomFly's tactics are certainly bullshit, but as far as I'm concerned Bing is to blame too. I searched for a DIR-655 today and not only did ZZF have a higher price than what Bing quoted, but it was out of stock! How often, if ever, does Bing intend to update the prices in their search engine? Anybody know?

Yes, ZZF is being shady, but I hopped on to ZZF yesterday morning before they raised the prices. Got a Hitachi 1TB drive for $55.59 after $10 rebate (81.99 - 20% (16.39) - $10 rebate = $55.59 free shipping).

Basically, you guys waited too long. You KNEW the 2x bing cashback was coming. You knew retailers and ebayers were going to hike their prices. It happened last year. No surprise that it was going to happen this year.

I guess I dont understand how this works. I went to cashback at bing and searched for my item: Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD3R and it says zipzoomfly $148 but then when i get to the site after logging in the price is 184.99(after mir) and and says save 20% with bing find out how... and makes me go through the same process. How do I get the 40.00 off do I just buy it and then it credits later?

That isn't my complaint. My complaint is that Bing apparently hasn't bothered to update their prices to reflect what's actually offered, or even if it's still available. What kind of search engine gives you stale data?

It's Wednesday evening, and Bing still lists the DIR-655 in stock at ZZF for Monday morning's price, when it's still out-of-stock and higher-priced.

I can't get my head around a price search engine that doesn't display current prices.

Yes, typically 60 days.
