What part of NO COUPON OR PROMOTIONAL NUMBERS do you not understand? You have been here long enough to know better. Posting them again will be reason to lock your account on AnandTech.

yay!!! picked up an iomega 8/4/32x cdr for 123.95 shipped minus $30MIR. Free shipping ends in less than an hour. Yeah, I notice they changed the expiration on the coupon. It's not the 31st anymore, it's the 13th!!!!!

Bah... had the last $30 coupon in the basket with a VCR I wanted. Went to check out, it said the coupon was no more... I went ahead and bought the VCR, not 12 hours later the new $30 coupon shows...

Any thoughts on whether I should call and turn on the tears?

As a Californian, I can not get too excited with buy.com deal because of the tax. Enjoy you guys. :)

Putting in a call to them right now. <Tears ENGAGE!>

&quot;Yes I know I'm a grown man... But I can weep with the best of 'em!&quot;

Anyways, I asked the CSR, she's requesting a credit for the coupon amount. Turned out to be a nice deal. Had $180 gift certificate from running a distributed computing client. Got a $200 vcr for free. Woohoo.

How do you know the free shipping is ending in a few hours? On their page, it says &quot;for a limited time&quot;. No specific date was given.

if the coupon doesn't work, just add a $10 off coupon first, and then try the link.


it should work

Hossenfeffer: What number did you dial? It looks like they disconnected their old number (1-800-880-1030). I had to call corporate and have them transfer me yesterday.

Their CS is close because they're in OK. OK got several inches of snow last nite. Here in st louis, it's pouring with the white stuff this morning.

I called at 1:00 AM PST. The first time I dialed I didn't get a ring. Tried one minute later and got connected just fine and dandy. I'd wager I had the best CSR interaction experience ever. Just left warm fuzzies in the tum-tum.

Heh, going to call again since they'll now upgrade the free ground shipping to 2nd day air for $1.95 per item. Starting to stetch my luck.

Called the customer service line and I swear I got Gomer Pyle. While he wasn't -absolutely- sure, he could almost assure me (if the stars were in alignment) that they couldn't upgrade the shipping for an order that has been placed. If anyone else has better luck, I'd love to hear about it, just to jab that knife in my side a bit further before you twist it.

Hehe I added the $30 off $150 coupon to my cart so later today when I come home from work I HOPE that it'll still be there so I can get all those DVD pre-orders!

Thank you KamakaziRcr, I love good news :D
