This is getting hotter for $125.20! Man! Is this drive going to be free or what! This
doesn't make any sense! I might order another pair of drive for the hell of it!

My first order is in the process of being shipped!

Whoooohhoooo!

I guess I'll call them tomorrow too. My drive is in the transition phase. Let's hope I can get some credit back.

Something is wrong in the way dell does their math.
DELL
Hard Drive; 120GB Ultra ATA/100, 7200RPM, for Dell Dimension Qty: 1 Unit Price: $142.10





Sub-Total $169.00

Discount -$26.90

Shipping $8.00

Shipping Discount -$8.00

Estimated Tax $0.00

Total Price $142.10


Isn't it supposed to be: 169-20%=135.20-10=$125.20

How the hell was I charged 142. I didnt even look at the math. But 169*20%=33.8=135.20-10=125.20.
Am I doing something wrong here?:Q

Still not in contention for deal of the year (you have to make money on the drive to be up for that haha) but this is a definite wowzer of a deal, especially if you live in a state with sales tax like Cali.

Just picked myself up 1 drive and I'm not going to be greedy. Going to let the other 50K plus Ananders buy theirs before I get another :D

If you had already entered the 10% coupon previously, there's possibly a cookie set. Log out, clear your cookies and start again. It shows up at 125.20 for me.

The 10% coupon and $10 yields $142
remove the 10% coupon to allow the magical 20% jobbie to appear then add the $10 coupon of your choice!

UofI:
I think I found the problem. I saved the drive to my buy later cart, and in my cart there was a 10% coupon. When I moved it to buy again, the drive showed up as 142. I moved the drive to the buy later again, removed to 10% coupon and when I transferred the drive to buy now, it comes up at 125.20. The 10% off coupon was overriding the 20% coupon. Try it.

Damn. Just bought another one of these.... Why can't you guys leave well enough alone! Now I will own two!

Got the first at: Total Price $142.10

and the second (tonight) at: Total Price $125.20

Now I just have to decide whether to Ebay one, return the more expensive one, or KEEP BOTH! Buying a RAID card is so tempting now!

Update! :: Got Order Confirmation & Order Acknowledgement email 5 minutes after ordering for $125.20!!!!!

PS. Happy 100 Posts To Me!

Hey guys I need your help before I pass out over here!
I got two on the way. Do I need another two? I will have
an Epox KT333 Mobo on the way as well. Has 2-channel
RAID onboard.

What should I do?
