OMAX Ad 5/25 - 5/31 *** MOST ITEMS LINKIFIED! *** WD 120 GIG SE HD + FAR items, >>> $9.97 AR/AC <<< *** SMOKIN' !!!

[MaxDSP]

When I dial 877-OFFICEMAX, I get a message saying that the number is invalid.

BTW, they do allow store pickup orders right?

Hey for those of you that bought the Cendyne External 48x Cd-r drive. Do u know if the drive is a Lite-on drive. cause the one i got is prob one from Aopen.

i am a die hard lite-on fan...did anyone or has anyone gotten a Lite-on external 48x drive.

cause if there is one...i'd hunt one down and get it. but if not..i guess i'll just be satisified with the one i got.

Thanks

I used the 50 pack of Khypermedia CDRs that are $12 and FAR. Problem is I don't see the $12 Rebate form I need?? OM links you here to a $5 rebate?? Anyone post a link??

BTW, I grabbed 120gb SE and these 50 CDRs over the phone w/ 30 off 150. If I get all rebates I'm at $36xx. Real happy. Thanks Hot Deals!

Of course you (Rossman) and Mysticman don't need speakerphones. Those large Ferengi ears should do the job nicely as long as the phone is reasonably close, like in the same room.

Update 05-25-2003 @ 7:45pm EST
Many of us (including me) learned the hard way that this week's OMAX sale is a REGIONAL SALE. I happen to be in one of the NON-SALE regions, and when I called 1-877-OFFICEMAX earlier today, they wouldn't place a DELIVERY ORDER for me on the WD 120 Gig HDD! They claimed it's OOS, not being RE-STOCKED, and thus cannot be BACKORDERED (total bull$hit)!

We now interrupt this story for the following message:
OFFICEMAX, LISTEN CAREFULLY: DON'T F*CK WITH TheDiggler!!!
Now back to our story...

After reading various suggestions by users in the FW thread, I decided to take a different approach. I called OMAX back and asked the CSR if I could place a phone order for IN STORE PICKUP. The response was that so long as the item(s) is/are in stock, then YES I COULD. I proceeded with my order that way, and at the end, I asked the CSR to e-mail me a copy of the order! IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU REQUEST A COPY OF THE ORDER BE E-MAILED TO YOU!!!

The CSR did so, and upon receipt of the e-mail, I printed it out and headed to my local OMAX B&M. I also brought along w/ me my own typed up list of the items I ordered (showing the correct SALE PRICES) as the OMAX.COM e-mailed order info was very difficult to read (you'll understand what I mean when you get one). Furthermore I brought along w/ me a printout of the OMAX.COM coupon TERMS & CONDITIONS (but as it turns out I didn't need it).

When I got to my OMAX B&M, they first tried the same line that the rest of you have been getting (i.e. regional sale not valid here). I asked to speak to the manager, and explained to him the following:
a) I'm merely here to pickup an OMAX.COM order.
b) Since OMAX.COM was unable to ship some of the items to me, and since your store has it in stock, OMAX.COM was able to place my order for IN-STORE pickup at your store.

My OMAX B&M ended up re-ringing up the entire order as a fresh order but price adjusted all the items to the sale prices and applied the coupon discount at the end. BTW, my typed up list made it much easier for the CSR to re-ring up the order. All prices were verified though against the prices in the OMAX.COM e-mail (i.e. don't bother cheating).

Consider the above a YMMV situation; however, IMO once you have that OMAX.COM order confirmation e-mail, you're 100% in the right to expect your order to be fulfilled (assuming the items are in-stock at your OMAX B&M).

P.S. Because my OMAX B&M is not part of the REGIONAL SALE this week, I'm unable to get my hands on this week's OMAX Weekly Ad Planner and OMAX MIR Quick Reference Guide.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

AT MODS: Since the sales flyer is now linkified in here, this thread IMO should no longer be considered a "repost."

has this deal worked for any1 else? i think i may pursue a PM @ CC tomorrow...however, if any1 else's experience with this plan has been favorable, i may jsut do this instead. btw, i called the nearest OM store in my airea, and the guy i talked to said they were out of all WD 120 HD, but that they would be gettin some in-stock later this week, like thursday. trouble is, thursday night is my prom! however...i go get to leave school @ 12:30...hmm..

 

[heat23]

does that minolta laser printer come with a toner??

 

[lbhskier37]

I drove 35 miles to the OM next to me, they didnt even havev the SE drive in. I was pretty pissed, so when i got home I called the order line and got the deal to work. They said since I am not local it would take 3 to 5 days, but I'lll be happy as a clam if this works. My IBM deathstar hasnt started the click of death yet, but its over a year and a half old, so I am getting pretty scared of it.

It comes w/ a starter toner cartridge (which is good for half the # of pages of a normal toner cartridge, although I don't know how many pages that is).

 

[McMadman]

I didn't see this question asked.

Looking at the rebate forms the one in question is prebates1
offers# 33 and 38 were purchased, and the rebate form says limit 1 rebate per item..
Do i need to make a second copy of said form and mail in both seperately, or will one get rejected?

1 form total is fine.

 

[HoosierDadE]

Just some heads up on the rebates:

The rebate form OM links to for the iConcept (Sakar) FAR phones does not list any such phone for this rebate period.

The rebate form for the iConcepts 6 outlet surge protector with modem protection has the wrong UPC printed on it. The form is for several products and apparently they swapped the UPC codes for the surge protector and a CD cleaning kit! The form is also a little hard to find since its listed under Sakar, the parent company.

edit: removed some bad info on the Minolta rebate. Apparently OfficeMax WILL accept a copy of the UPC (according to the GotApex main page).

I hope this wasn't a repost. I didn't read the whole thread.

How come when i go onto www.officemax.com, and search for this hard drive nothing comes up. I only see 2 hard drives. a 60 and 80 gig. Whats the deal on that?

 

[Northland]

I phone ordered the WD HD, along with a filler item to hit $150, using the A-10129 coupon code. The CSR said the driver would pick up the coupon when it is delivered on Wednesday. Will the driver just leave the package if I am conveniently "not home" on Wednesday? Or do I need to come up with a coupon to get delivery?

Officemax usually just dumps packages on my doorstep when I am not home. Have they changed their policies?

[Questi4110]

If i order through the phone and they aren't out of stock, where will i receieve the rebates? And the IR will be processed as well correct?


Also, if they are out of stock and i tell them that i will pick it up at the nearest store, what will i need to bring to that store. I saw diggler's change in post for the original post but i am still a bit confused. I print the receipt the CSR sends me in the e-mail...will the final price i pay have $30 off since i spent $150? or will i need to go to the store and show them this phone coupon? Also, when i get to the store, do i show them the receipt, the phone coupon, and the correct sale prices (just to clarify for them)? Will they print out a MIR on their receipt even though they aren't one of the stores in the national sale offering this deal? Can i direct the CSR on the phone that i will pick up from any OM in the area or do i have to specify the store, if i don't have to specify, then does it matter where i pick it up or is this situation like the one where you have to call to see if the mananger accepts online coupons (even though this a phone coupon)?

Final Question: Is the phone coupon a print up or something or is it just that code that is seen in an earlier post (A something)? What would i give to the driver if he picks it up or what would i give to the B&M store?

THANKS

They told me they would pick up the coupon last time, but I wasn't home so they just dropped it there. The order did say "p/u 25 coupon" (something like that).

I just got off the phone with OM CSR and she said OM didn't have any in stock and it would be on back order. She said it might take 7 days. The OM rebate needs to be sent within 14 days and the WD 30 days.

 

[Dood]

My local Officemax B&M took the web $30/$150 printout with no problems. Got the WD 8mb 120gb HDD and the 100 pack of CDRs for $142 less $100 in MIRs. They had "several" of the drives still in stock.

 

[Salvador]

Northland.. I'd remove that coupon code if I were you or the mods will remove it and you.

I phone ordered the WD HD, along with a filler item to hit $150, using the xxxxx coupon code. The CSR said the driver would pick up the coupon when it is delivered on Wednesday. Will the driver just leave the package if I am conveniently "not home" on Wednesday? Or do I need to come up with a coupon to get delivery?

Pffft.. An Officemax CSR told me that one time. She said that the "driver" was going to pick up the coupon code, which had me all worried because I got the code off the internet. The "driver" never picked up anything. It was quite possible because UPS delivered the package and not an Officemax driver.
