HOT! Another site with $71 IBM 75GXP 30GB Drives!

[Willith]

I saw the posts earlier for the great deal on those drives so I went to Pricegrabber to see what the going rates were and both AccessMicro and McGlen,com had them listed for $71. Here's the link to the McGlen's site:

It appears that the McGlen's shipping is $5.95 ground, $9.00 2nd day and $17 overnight. McGlen's a "Gold" store with Bizrate and a 2 star (out of 3) with Gomez.com. Enjoy!

McGlen and AccessMicro are the same store

 

[Scrounger]

Yeah the Access Micro checkout form said something about the CC charge being listed as from the "McGlen Group" or something similar. Hey, they might have a different inventory. who knows?

 

[Willith]

My bad, I wonder why a company would have 2 web sites for the same inventory? Tax breaks? Kind of like Chevy and GMC?

 

[Daaavo]

Smoking deal......if they honor it.

 

[Cybordolphin]

Yeah.. do they BOTH charge sales tax in Calif??

 

[Runequest2]

this website is one dollar higher in the ground shipping than the access website. I guess if i get the drive I will not care.

We aint getting these. Must have been about 1500 drives ordered. No way...

 

[jimmygates]

Odd how these two companies are the customers of my friend (Who does computer distributing) and sold them drives at $115 a piece. Dunno how they can come around and resell it for $71. Something fishy is going on. Maybe refurbished?

I wouldn't worry if the drive was refurbished by IBM because for at least the last 4 years, manufacturers have been replacing practically everything but the main casting, and even it often gets a new nonstick coating.

OTOH I wouldn't buy his drive unless IBM had something in writing saying they'd cover it for at least 1 year because I've had even IBM drives fail in the first few months.

 

[tigger80]

has any called them about how long is the warranty from IBM on these drives?

 

[Wiz]

Well, I just ordered two - just in case they actually do ship them. Man I could use two ATA100 30 gig drives for less than $150 - that would be great!

 

[bladerunner8]

warranty is 30-days. Free gifts with purchase add $2+~$5 shipping for the free gift.
Company rebate is $10 on $100 [courtesy of bensbargains.com] They answer their email and faxed me the required sales receipt [on a previous purchase]

First Post =)
Surprised no one mentioned it here but accessmicro has a $10 rebate for any sale over $100 dollars.

Hmm...lets see if I can do the link right:

Dysen, the "rebate" was mentioned in the original AccessMicro thread

 

[vtqanh]

the deal in McGlen has gone, too!

 

[Martijnos]

Why did they lock the Accessmicro thread? Did it get too long or something?
