Agfa 1212U - $27.99 - after PM + Rebate!!!

[brianbonedoc]

After leeching several deals for the past several months - I have put together my own. It is a semi-hot, ok tepid, at best, deal!

Costco.com has Agfa 1212U scanner for $67.99
Staples caries it for 107.99
Pricematch it.
Use one of the many 20 off 50 coupons
Agfa has $20 MIR here - http://www.agfaus.com/cdi/images/1212ure.pdf

Net result - $27.99

Now if anyone can tell me if this scanner is worth 30 bones I would appreciate it.null

It's well worth it! I have one purchased back in Jan. ($35 hot deal) It has worked well.

i need one of these. that sounds like a hot deal. is this a B&M deal or online? and how do you use the 20 off 50 for B&M stores?

Thanks for the find!

I just did the deal over the phone. Went off with out a hitch, very nice csr. Total $51.96 delivered with a POSSIBLE $20 rebate.

Only problem may be the scanner color. Not the quality of the scans, but the color of the box. The rebate form states "Rebate valid for 1212u scanner off-white only".

I have no idea what color they're going to ship.

BTW the scanner gets good reviews and received a "commendation" from zdnet, feb 2000.

brianbonedoc - Nice post, thank you. I own this scanner and it rocks, of course I paid $129 at Fry's Electronics and have only used it once but oh well.

This is a good scanner and for under $30 it's a HOT DEAL. The best scanner for under $200 is the Epson Perfection 1200U but this is also good.

anyone know if Sam's Club carries this at a similar price? No PriceCostco here...

Just received my scanner. Yes it is the "off white" model so it is eligible for the rebate.

Took a bit of work to get it installed (plug & what?) but now that it's up and running it makes very nice scans. And it's quick!

If the deal is still available I recommend it.

About $32 total after rebate.

Staples does not carry this scanner online. So can call a store in another city and they will pricematch over the phone? If so, does the Costco BM carry this for the same price?
