Staples in Phoenix, AZ, have NEC 1530V on clearance for 299 with MIR of 50. If you can find 30 off 150 coupon, then it became 219. However, taxes take a big chuck of the coupon.
both were 299 last week, no rebate. i bought thte philips b/c of the higher contrast ratio 350:1, vs 250:1 of the nec. the rebate is new for the nec, just came out. i'm not sure if im going to keep my philips now, as the nec is cheaper.
The rebate runs 6/30 thru 7/13.
It must be the surrounding lights in the store. Both show good contrast at the display. You are correct in that the Phillips has 350:1 ratio.
This is a pretty hot deal if we can make it work. I cannot find a link to the MIR after looking through NEC's and Staples site. I would also be interested in how craigg got that extra 10% off - what is the business rewards program?
I bought it at Store #1184 in Stuart, Florida (561-743-9393) and they had at least one more left yesterday.
The Business Rewards Program is a frequent buyer program and you can find more info about it on their homepage. There is a bonus in effect of an extra 5% for the month of July.
I think the rest of the questions were answered in the previous post.
I just did this deal myself, total before rebate and Business Reward is ~$286. They wouldn't let me use the $40 off coupon since it says on-line or phone order. And I think the 10% reward for me would be $28.60, so it makes the final cost ~$208. I'm happy!
Congrats on those who got the deal. $200 LCD is just toooo sweet; i thought I had a pretty good deal when I got the same model for 300-30 coupon = 270 a week or 2 ago but this is even better!!!
What's Staple's return policy like?? Will I be charged restocking fee since I opened the box already?? I wonder if I could return it so that I can get the $50 rebate
No need to return it, you can just give them your receipt and ask to repurchase it so you are eligible for the rebate. However their PM and return policies for monitors are both 14 days.
Hate to pile on, but I could use the $30 coupon, too. Never used a printable before -- can you simply print out on a B&W laser printer and bring it in to the store?
I just found one of these here in PHX and put it on hold, but I can't find the rebate or a printable coupon anywhere, there is one site (Printable coupons) that lists a $50 0ff $200 printable but you can't get it unless you're a member, and I can't sign up untill their next newsletter comes out, so if someone can email me a printable and a link to the rebate HERE I'd be very happy, they'll only hold it for 24hrs.
Thanx
BTW, there are still a few more in the Phx area, so call around.
