Western Digital 120GB w/ 8MB Cache $72.00 After MIR and AMEX PM

[Dre]

Outpost has this drive for $289.95 - $120.00 rebate = $169.95
link


CompUSA is also selling this drive for about the same price with a $100.00 MIR this weekend. I don't have experience with rebates with either company though, so I don't know which is the most reliable with rebates.


PM with AMEX (Gold, Platinum, Optima, ect.) to Mwave which sells it for $192.00 and you can get it for like $72.00


YMMV

The only problem with that deal is that Outpost is selling a retail package, and Mwave is selling a Bare Drive. I.e, OEM. Not sure how successful the PM'ing would be...

this might be better for PM

I've pricematched OEM to retail several times without a problem. My experience with AMEX BVG is that they pretty much will let you pricematch anything as long as it's similar. I've even pricematched items that had different model numbers.

Which is probably why they shut it down

FYI, you can not mail rebate twice. Box has only one UPC code.

This is NOT a deal for anyone without an AMEX card and it SHOULD say so in the title.

I think it DOES say PM in the TITLE. PM means pricematch.

 

[bigboxes]

Vette...you no darn well that although it does say PM in the topic title, it does not mention that you need AMEX to get that PM. That is what Woz was trying to say.

I didn't mean for you to mail the UPS code twice. I meant you had a choice between buying it at outpost or buying it at compusa. I did not mean that you could send out for both rebates.

Darn right I knew that. I get tired of people nitpicking other people's posts. Also he could have said it in a nicer way.

Which Amex cards allow you to do price match?
My click citi card is pretty good, and the limit is 3 grand for a year compared to Amex's 1.
However, I think they'll get rid of this card, since they don't offer it any more and mine will be expired coming Nov.
Damn, good stuff don't last long.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think Citibank's PM let's you PM online retailers.

Can AMEX blue for students do PM it??

 

[Jdog]

No.

Nope, I don't thinkblue for students ever had that benefit. In any case, AMEX Blue lost it on 04/30/02

<<Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think Citibank's PM let's you PM online retailers.>>

The card that does the PM, ClickCiti is only for use with ONLINE SHOPPING. Why on earth would they not pricematch one online company with another?

 

[koolio]

As I know that the only Amex cards can do PM are Platinum and Gold but they will be expired in June.

bump for the people that missed it over the weekend
