Mods: if this thread is somehow inappropriate, please delete.

Ok, warning, this appears to be a typo at www.outpost.com and I am not sure if they will honor it.

If you click here.
you will see that Outpost is selling the Antec SX830 for $99 minus $20 rebate for total of $79

However, if you click to "Buy it!" it will say that the price is $70 minus MIR for total of $50 bucks. Also, it show Overnight shipping at only $7.95. I haven't done this yet (as I really want a 400W), but it looks to be a great deal if this is true.

Great catch! I've dealt with Outpost for a long time and they have provided great customer service, so I think they'll stand behind this pricing. I ordered the case, the modem they have on their Holiday sale-ebration, which is free after rebate, and got overnight shipping for free. Thanks for helping me spend more money ;)

I called Outpost and got it for $83.35 ($5.78 tax for me..yuk :( ). After rebate price of $63.35 :). Thanks PSYWVic !
This deal would be red hot if you could make the order over $99 !

It still rings up at $70 for me. This is a real hot deal. With overnight at $8, it must be a type because shipping is way more than that for such a bulky and heavy item. I say get it while you can because this typo deal will disappear as soon as they see a couple hundred orders for it. It's worth a shot. Mebbe Antec is trying to phase this model out and is clearancing them out?

I almost wish I didn'te get my sx635 a month ago for $80.

This is the kind of deal that you probably are better off just taking a chance yourself rather than posting here. You'll get about 100 people trying to buy it and then calling customer support and ruining it. I hope I'm wrong. Nice deal if it works.:cool:

Thanks for the mention of the modem, I added that on to my order. Getting a quality case for about $55., after the rebate, is a deal.
Take care,
Ray

Glad to hear that it is working out for everyone. :)

I ran across this while searching for an Antec 400W power supply. The case is a good deal, but a 300W just isn't enough to power for me, so I thought I would share.

Scandal, yes this should run an XP 1600 just fine, as long as you don't have too many drives, fans, etc., or don't plan on OC'ing to the moon.

Awesome price!!! Waiting for a while to find this case for a great price. Didn't want to drive around Best Buy looking for this. Hope this comes through

Why would this deal be red hot for a first time buyer? The only kind of coupons I see are for free shipping over $100.

Damn.. This is almost too good of deal to pass up. I have my heart set on the SX1040B and I know if I buy this now, I'll end up using this for my next build instead of buying the 1040B.. Really.. Must resist!

Got a question about the MIR. If it's over tomorrow and you buy today, will you still get the rebate even though you probably won't get your case until after the MIR is over? Just wondering.. The MIR would be the excuse to make this deal too good to pass up.

I'm not buying anything else from Outpost.com because they never paid me the $100 rebate for two IBM Web CAM's I bought over 6 month's ago! :(:disgust::|

Hey z80,
I ordered the same two web cams from Outpost. I finally got my rebates but it was only because someone posted on here about calling to get it. Do a search to find it and call em.:D
