Buy.com is now asking you to describe the postcard that they sent out with the $30 Business coupon. Anyone by chance have a scanned image of the postcard?

It worked for me. She asked me about the URL and that was it. She said they usually will charge the full price and then credit you back the $30.

Hey people,

I"ve always wondered, How do buy.com and other sellers distribute those coupons?

I mean do they send them out to current customers? I bought about $1000 worch of merch from buy com last year and have never received a coupon offer directly from them.

Can they be found on their website if you do a search?

Are they by invitation only?

Just wondering.

It was remarkably easy for me also. I ordered the 64 mb radeon and called the next day (Sun) and talked to a csr. She didn't even ask me anything about the coupon. I asked for the business $30 off $150 and she asked for my order #. That was it.

I ordered the radeon standard ground shipping on Sat night and i will get it tomorrow (Wed). I don't think thats to bad. I also just got my email that my acount was credited $30.

Maybe everybody jumped on the coupon over the weekend and made it harder to redeem it? Or i just got a really cool csr (sorry, don't remember the name).

Bought the TDK burner on Sunday night through the website, called in 15 minutes later to request the $30 off and the CSR was really friendly - no flak at all. She didn't even ask me a single question about the coupon. Got the email Tuesday confirming that the $30 credit will be applied to my credit card within a few days. BTW, thanks to everyone for all the deals (coupons and product) that I've been able to take advantage of since discovering this forum a couple of weeks ago. You guys are just a peachy bunch of bastages. Oh - and I just used the $10 off $30 coupon tonight when I ordered the optical mouseman wheel. Lovin' the coupon craze.

Too bad i used that $30 coupon once already, cant be used again. Do you need a business acct if you call in. btw.. buy.com sent me a $30 coupon about 2 mos ago for www.buy.com/buybig

it was a 8 1/2 x 11 postcard and just said buybig on the back, but that was before this new coupon.

I got a postcard in the mail but this was during the holidays. I wonder if they'll honor this one.

Sorry, that coupon is invalid or does not exist.

Nevermind, I found out the link doesn't work anymore.
