ok, don't flame me as i am still learning the process... with that said, here you go...
staples has these for $459.98 - $100 mir - $40 coupon = $319.98
BUT
if you pm this to ems computing who has 35 of them for $347.49 - 110% guarantee = $312.74 - $100 mir - $40 off $200 coupon OR use the $40 ir (don't think you can use the $40 ir and the $40 coupon) = $172.74
however, i have been lucky as my staples has a cool manager, who has let me stack (use more than one - for anyone newer than me at this ) coupons before. so getting the monitor at $132.74 is not out of the question. don't expect this price tho - so anything less than $172.74 is gravy... and we all like gravy!!
- here's the $100 mail in rebate
- the $40 staples coupon is listed on the staples page with the monitor
- the $40 off $200 can be found at FW of DC.
**UPDATE**
there is no ir - my mistake! the instant $40 off from staples is a coupon and they give you the coupon code right there on on the same page the lcd is on, but it is not the same one as the $40 off $200 - the numbers are different!
on top of all this -- there is FREE GROUND SHIPPING which is posted loud and clear on the page!! so no haggling with csr's about the final price
of course YMMV.
i have not tried this but you should be good to go b/c ems has the monitors in stock and they are not refurbs... but you know how it can go sometimes!! i'm pretty sure you should be able to do this over the phone as i have tried pm a monitor at staples over the phone and they just looked up the site after i read them the url (didn't work then tho - but it did in-store). also, staples tries to limit the store they will pm to, but as long as its the same product in a retail box (no refurbs) you can get the pricematch most of the time - at least that's been my experience.
