Staples.com has the Cendyne 48x12x48x CD-RW drive for $79.99. Use the 20$ of 50$ purchase coupon floating around at obese billfold's forums. Then there's a $30 MIR here: Staples Rebate bringing your total to 29.99$ + tax. There's free shipping on most items till 12/28.

$79.99 Drive Cost
-20.00 Coupon
=
59.99 + tax
- 30.00 MIR
= 29.99 + tax after everything's said and done. Not too bad of a deal for people looking for a decent drive for a relatively low cost that don't have a close BestBuy around them for the Buslink drives.

Link added thanks to luv2save:
Drive

Edit: OfficeMax has the drive for $49.99, so like with what Engineer said, with a PM + Coupon + MIR you could get this drive possibly for free (+ tax).

Edit: The deal was discussed several times at FW...not at AT. Sorry for the confusion....spending too much time looking for hot deals...hehe! :p


This deal has been discussed several times. Pricematch OfficeMax, who has it for $49.99 after instant rebate, and get it for almost free (if not). :)

The one I got (after PM and coupon, I might add) was a Liteon...but Cendyne has several models. If the model # begins with LTR...then it's a Liteon (Even has the Liteon label on the inside).

Good Luck! :)

Can anyone tell me what manufacturer mine is?

Part #: CDICD00118
Drive Model: CW 4802
Serial #: AGC12F22280#####

I got mine from staples.com. Had a pricematch planned to OM, but then they pulled them from their site. Now trying to get them to PM w/OM B&M (do you think it would be better to just drive over to staples B&M to do the PM?).

Will staples/OM usually exchange a drive just because you want a differently branded one? From what I can tell, mine is an Optorite. Dunno if I should try getting a LiteOn or not...

One problem is that I used a $40/$40 "Award Certificate" and I bet they'll hassle me about that during the PM. It wasn't really a coupon, though, since I got it from the Discover card double cashback bonus thing...

Lore...didn't get that lucky...only LTR48125W....not the 6th generation chipset....that would have been nice.....however, I have read that the $29.90 out the door price for the 48x12x48 Buslink models at BestBuy (YMMV) have been coming as 48x24x48 LiteOn's upgradable to 52X. YMMV....Good Luck! :)

RE:"Anyone have any idea whether this is a LiteOn or AOpen?"

Can be Liteon, Aopen, Acer/BenQ or I guess an optorite. The first three for sure because I've got them all from Cendyne.

Sure it wasn't a 48x12x50?

Cendyne appears to really be clearing out Taiwan.
Yours would make 5 different drives they are selling as 48x in this promo.

I bought 2 of these drives and they were both the 48/24/48 models. I got one for $29.99 out the door and the other one I had on raincheck I got for $29.99 out the door, but when I purchased it there was also $50 worth of rebates so I guess my net is -$20 on that one :)

thanks to the deal poster here and everywhere else. i just did this deal at staples.com for $32.77 - $30 rebate = $2.77!! ($46.99 for the burner (110%) + I got some stuff to go over $50 to use the coupon).

WOW! THANK YOU! I guess I can't cry too much if I don't get a lite-on :) :) :) The CSR didn't want to do it, but a supervisor verified the rebates are both $30, so it was a valid pricematch to officemax!!

RE:"Oops. Ya it's a 48x12x50"

It's an Aopen then
Text

Actually I have a TDK 32x that uses JustLink, it works well. I wonder if it's an Aopen? Humm

I got one and will probably keep it. Not sure what I will do with the BENQ 48x16x48.

:D Thanks!

CSR gave me a hassle about where to find the Officemax posted price so I just said that the pricematch should be in their system since "I know others have gotten it" and she dug a little and then pricematched it to $49.99($46.99 after 110%) for me:D


Woot! supposed to be here tommorow! - Nice
