Hey,

I have an update for ya!! :)

I just happened to be up with a cold beer at 3 am Saturday morning when I saw this deal. I have been checking my order status since, and I always see "Processing." Just checked a few minutes ago.. now my order status has changed from "Processing" to "Shipped" ;) ;)

Good luck to everyone!

BTW, my total came out just under $27..
Great deal!!
Thanks again rubenswm

Bluealpha,

Yes, mine was shipped UPS (says so on order status page). I thought I'd receive an email confirmation with a tracking number, but no such luck. Anyway, looks like the closest Staples to me is ~40+miles away. Good luck. Hope it goes through!! :)

Anybody know how to PM the pricegrabber $35 price with Staples?

(over the phone that is)

Also, how do you PM a website at the B&M store? Print out your shopping cart? Print out the product page?

My order status page says shipped!!! yay!

History:
I called in on Sunday and the lady told me to mail them the orginal 15 off 30 coupon because it was only suppose to be valid for Those who live in New York/New Jersey.
Monday someone called me and left a message to call him/her back.
I called again on Monday and another lady told me that it will be shipped to you by Tuesday
I called today (After checking the status page, which says "shipped") and they gave me the UPS tracking number and told me the package is scheduled to arrive tomorrow.

My final price was $25.63!!!

i went to staples today and pricematched with nothing but software but the guy added the $5 for shipping :| i also price matched an ink cart thats $31 there and $23 online. well they added the $5 to that too =( then i used the $10 off $40 but its not like i even ogt a deal after PM because i got charged $10 shiping and that took the coupon away. ($59,95 total) i might return warcraft 3 for the $39.99+ tax and hopefully they wont see the $10 off coupon and ill get the ink cart fro $17. cause i dont want to pay $40 for wc3. i was hopin to get it in around $30.

just went to my neighborhood staples (Fountain Valley, Orange County, CA)

The guy there was pretty knowledgeable, he knew what he was doing, and on the price-match policy it clearly stated that Staples had the right to call up the site and see if they had any stock, and also to tag along shipping.

First site, nothingbutsoftware.com, closed early (it's in the east), so i came back later on with two other sites with WC3 for $39.75 and $38.75.

i forgot the names of the companies, but a quick check through various coupon sites got me the links.

went there to PM, and the first site, somebody put the staples guy on hold for about 10 min., next site had 3 B&M stores. he called the first two, second one said no stock. so i then asked him to call the 3rd site (i don't think he was all that happy, this had taken about 30 min. up till then). they had it in stock, it was $38.75 + $5 shipping. He hung up on the guy (the guy had him on hold for a good 5 min.) and then just charged me about $42, then i tagged along the $10 off coupon to get it for about $32 + tax (turned out to be about $34)

I came home happy, after about 45 min. haggling in staples, so it does work~ just hope you get a dumber guy that won't tag along shipping or call to check for stock

Oh yeah, to PM from a website, just bring in a copy of the printed page (shopping cart or front page, it doesn't matter), and make sure you get the number of the website (just in case). They then call for availability, and then they'll (hopefully) 110% PM

Got mine in today!! :)
My total came to $26.64 (including tax and shipping). UPS was actually a day late, but how can I complain.

Sweet deal rubenswm, thanks for the heads up. :D:D
