Great deal!! Retail SoundBlaster Live Platinum for 69.99 shipped!!!!

[HobbyBoy]

Hi Everyone,
I have perused this board for a while and have come across some great deals. I would like to return the favor as this will be my first post ever!


Call 1800-3-STAPLES and ask them to pricematch the SoundBlaster Live Platinum at CompUSA

STAPLES - Item No. IM1007315 ($143.49)
CompUSA - SKU No. 269144 ($99.99)

Use the Staples coupon for $30 off a $100 purchase (add some paper clips to get to 100), and all items over $50 has free shipping. So it comes out to $69.99 for SB Platinum!!!! Great deal!!


Oh and by the way, I missed out on the CompUSA Iomega 12x10x32 CDRW deal (I went to 3 stores and all were sold out. Couple of jerks in front of me buying like 10 of those drives. And I had my on-line order cancelled for some reason)
So, I fanyone would be kind enough to hook me up with a reasonable deal,....let me know! Thanks!!!

This seems like a really good deal I wonder why no one is responding to this. Have you tried this out yet? Let us know.

b/c the price will get to the original staples price once they jack you with the overnight shipping.

You can try your luck(and patience) and try to get a csr that won't put it on you, but that time could be better spent.

Besides, the ppl here really don't care unless its the 5.1

Tried a while ago, it is not available in my area
Good deal ...

They cant jack you for overnight shipping if the item is going to take 3-5 days to ship?

Does anyone know if Staples B&M will PM with the CompUSA online this and let you use a 25 off 100? I am in the market for a sound card and this would fit mah needs perfectly.

i'm still new when it talk to pricematching.
how exactly is the procedure to make a pricematch?

is the order is done on the phone or in the internet?

 

[The_Dude8]

her209, i know that staples b&m will pm w/ compusa online, but i dont think they will let u use the kode, unless u printed it out and show them proof..

 

[lilstevo]

guys gotta wait i tried and seems everywhere is out of these for staples. they say call back 3-5 business days. it is a might good deal though.

I think they'll disregard that 3-5 day thing as its about WHEN they ship, not when its available to be shipped.

I might be wrong. Enlighten me.

I just order SB 5.1 for $69.99(tax included). Staples will price match anything on the Web and they will charge you a shipping if other party has shipping charge. Then they add tax to CA residents. It is a good deal on 4.1 Platinum. Good luck to all.

Guys, i just tried Pricematching, at 11:13pm pacific time, and the lady said it was a discontinued product and all the wearhouses were out. Is the lady lying or what's up? SHould i call again and try another rep?

 

[xylo226]

You can indeed use coupon codes at Staples B&M. I asked the manager of my local Staples B&M myself.

Try your luck there.

 

[ticoalu]

Freakkk man, Staples actually discontinued the item, because they know that all people gonna pricewatch this item.

does any body know other site that do pricematching and coupons?

 

[her209]

If PM was allowed in-store, do you think they would PM the SoundBlaster Platinum 5.1 against compuplus for $161 - $40 coupon?

 

[Glottis]

I did this deal a week ago, but I do have to add the warning, that Staples will match the price at CompUSA, but then they will also find out what CompUSA charges for overnight shipping, and hit you up on that as well, negating the free shipping on items over $50. It's still a good deal in my opinion, but just thought I'd pass that along. My final cost after pricematch, 30 off 100 coupon, and tax was $85. Hope that helps someone out.

 

[scarfase99]

If anyone got in on this deal and got an extra one they'd be willing to send, i'd be glad to pay for shipping. e-mail shady@shadymg.8k.com
