Shipping looks to be $10.23.

BTW, looking around, it doesn't appear that eCost has the greatest reputation for rebates.

 

[SoulAssassin]

doesn't say anything about being refurb...not bad for secondary storage

 

[KPACOTKA]

A good deal even without rebate, but already dead - Temporarily Out of Stock

STAY AWAY FROM E-COST AT ALL COSTS.

Rebates almost always fail and if you have any problems with the unit forget about getting any service from them.

Superhard shouldnt that be

There are only 1 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary, and those who don't. Zero and One.

10 types would mean there are 4 types of people.

The rebate link no longer works, anyone remember what the dates where for the rebate? Or better yet have a copy to share if it is still valid?

 

[coffeecandy]

what is your email. i'll e-mail it to you.

 

[coffeecandy]

just did a check on the validity of the rebate and it states the purchase must be between 01/02/2008-01/04/2008.
