    Verbatim 50 pack dvd $14.99 no rebate at Best Buy

    My store had about 50 spindles. Not a single one had any indication of an offer on them....not that they would sell them in store at $14.99. Yurgis

    Verbatim 50 pack dvd $14.99 no rebate at Best Buy

    The local store ad states the order must be placed online. Would not budge on that issue. Still OOS online. Yurgis

    Verbatim 50 pack dvd $14.99 no rebate at Best Buy

    Not the same items in the BB online ad and the one in the techbargain link. BB online has 8X DVD, techbargain link shows 16X. No mention of free prints on either link. Anyone do this with in-store pickup today? Yurgis

    Better to have a gun, and not need it...

    Even if you just use that light sparingly, it is just the kind of thing the well-prepared survivalist with sniping skills will utilize to spot you, aim on you, and grease your sorry butt. Then he'll have your light, your batteries, and all the rest of your gear. Not so hot a deal. Yurgis

    Fry's ECS K7S5A and AthlonXP 2400 combo for $89 - YMMV

    I called the Sunnyvale CA store (I'm on the east coast) about having this combo shipped. They would honor the $89 price only if I purchased an in-house extended warrantee for $35, $15 for a fan, and $15 for shipping. $154 total. Not worth it from where I sit. YMMV, but I doubt it will be much...

    << Brutal reviews here. Long story short, unless you drop SERIOUS coin on the highest end Bose, your getting pure crap. >> Doesn't BOSE stand for Buy Other Sound Equipment? Yurg.

    Very nice Case for $55 shipped. (300 Watt AMD approved)

    They list it as in stock now. ------------------------- So says the website, customer service tells me different. They seem to have lost the one they shipped to me. Can't give me an airbill number, tracking number, or anything. Haven't followed up with promised emails. Seems like they're...

    Anybody have another retail source for this case? Newegg has boned me on this case, ordered from them before Xmas. I'm not seeing what a wonderful online retailer they are. George
