4x Mad Dog DVD +/- R for $10 AR at OFFice Max

[venk]

IIRC the deal was $79.99 - 30 IR - $40 MIR = $9.99 + tax on $49.99 for the Mad Dog 6-in-1 4x DVD Burner.

Wow, we're almost up to FAR DVD Burners

Did you see the same deal online? or only looked in the store?

EDIT: I looked online and it says the rebate expires 9/30/2004. Did you see when it was valid when you looked at it in the store?

EDIT2: I looked at the rebate center and found the rebate and it expires OCT 10th. So you can get it online. But I don't know where to download the rebate at.

Wow,

 

[ErmanC]

Is it the one mentioned in this thread?

If so, then the rebate is good for another week or two.

I got it for $4 (tax). Great deal.

Rebate Valid 8/15 - 9/30. Limit 1.

This is just an extension of the earlier promo. If you bought it earlier, like I did, you'll need a different address to redeem an additional rebate.

anybody knows what is the manufacture of this drive. I am about to get one of this. Just want to know how good this is. I know their 8X one is a NEC drive.

rebate expire 9/30. when you click on the rebate it's not there!

Actually if you go to officemax rebate center, search the rebate from Mad Dog, you will find the rebate is valid thru 10/24. I believe it's OK.

I think this is only a -R/RW burner (no +).

I tried tro order on the website a couple days ago..
it removed that item from order at checkout.
the csr said they're long gone..

Went to the Pasadena, CA store a little while ago and there was a group of people standing at the Customer Service desk all buying this drive. There was this tall Asian guy standing there and he kept saying "this is the last one! This is the last one!" He sounded really weird, almost demented.

Anyway, the people all bought their drives and cleared away, and then I proceeded to buy "the last one."

Just pulled my copy of the rebate from 4 weeks ago and it was the same. Not sure if there was a different one 3 weeks ago.

 

[pxc]

Yep, it's the same dept number as the original deal ($19.99AR): 04-81972

Yes, it is a "-" burner only.
The "SE" series (mostly in black) can burn both "-" and "+" .

What is the down side to not burning DVD+R?

Flexibility. Some players will play on + discs (my old apex ad-600), but in general -R discs are more compatible.

 

[ericboo]

As well, some players like my Toshiba play neither + or -. Luckily I got a Liteon drive to use the bitset utility and can change to DVD-ROM and movies play fine.

 

[konakona]

is this deal still alive? need one like tomorrow

 

[VirtualLarry]

Interesting that this is only a -R/RW drive, that seems a bit unusual. All the other drives are either only +, or dual-format, that I've seen.

Anyways, is there a bitsetting util or firmware that will burn as DVD-ROM for this drive?
