[deal dead]Compaq Presario 2800 $659@office depot. Price error?

Obviously a price error. Too bad its not in my area because i'm very much in the market for that laptop.

Anyway, the 2800 goes for roughly $1999. It is a great laptop because its light (5.3lbs) and has the new radeon 7500 chip in there with 32 or 64MB of RAM. I bought a 1720 this week and returned it because the 8MB radeon in there just isnt enough.
 
i think that OD is going to introduce this laptop in the near future. it will be OOS right now for all of us.

when you click for details, it only gives you the processor info. Nothing else, no screen size, no memory, no HD info, nothing.
if you look at other lappies at OD, they will give you a complete info. So i guess, this deal wont do us anygood.
Unless, if someone is able to PM this to staples, then it would be a hot deal but again, staples wont PM it since the details for the lappy are not complete.

keep trying....
 
called them up right now....

heres what i got from CSR:

this item is not for sale via online/phone orders. Only available in stores. you have to go to a store and order one there.
My question is, whats the price at OD store for this lappy now ? if its 659, i am outta door then 🙂

Can we pricematch this print out to staples ? that would be a nice deal:
$1785 - $1237 (110% PM) = $548 + tax ?


 
calling my local OD right now....to see if they have this and the price, wish me luck.

i will get like 3 of these if they have it and sell 2 of them here at cost 😉
 
gave my local OD a call and had them look up the item number, to place an order......no luck. it was showing as out of stock and not on backorder either
 
called my local OD....

they said that you have to come to store and configure it manually. then they will have to order it, they dont carry it in store. i asked for a price quote, he said that it depends on the configuration..then i asked for the least configured price and he said $800 and up.

what do you guys say ? is it worth wasting a trip across the bridge ?
 
Found the link at Office Depot.com

Presario 2800

Staples Link

Staples Presario 2800

IF anyone can pricematch this...you might consider yourself a god...

it be what ..the 110% pricematch would give u 659 - 66 = $$ 593?
Not sure if they take ten percent of what they are pricematchin or the price of the orginal product
That be ridiculous...like 550~ or something..

hahah

Ok... who found this deal and where did they find it? Someone S*ckin on the glass D*ck again or what?

Is this a hot deal or no?

Where was this seen at $659?

Thanks.

dude, start at OfficeDepot.com

and I think that bingooo found it....
 
LOL if you check out the staples link you'll also find that there is a 200 dollar rebate out for this machine as well. Imagine pricematching with staples and then using the rebate. You now have the machine for ~400 bucks. I've never tried pricematching something at staples, anyone having any suggestions or think its worth a shot?

The description at OfficeDepot.com doesn't list any specs at all, so I doubt that Staples will do a PM. Would've been nice, though 🙂
 
I am not sure how easy it is pricematch anymore at staples

Every since they changed to 110% thing..i got no clue...

Usually depends on the manager.....The one i go to..never gave me any problems..the manager will just look..and say "oK"
and that's it...

that 200 rebate on top...would make this deal even more ridiculous

good luck

if someone actually gets staples to do it..please do tell
