Frankly... I think it's a crackup that you are buying every one of these up in bay area and then offering them forsale in this forum.... what a humanitarian

This is hotdeals forum... please take your personal dealings to the forsale/trade forum next door....:)

Ok...I picked up the last 2 in Pomona CA. Nothing else available in the neighborhood. If anyone lives around West Covina they said that they have 2...but not garaunteed. Just what shows in stock in the computer.

Actually, people on eBay are very interested in this item. I've seen one guy from Puerto Rico who wanted one. Anyways, I need at least 5 for myself. Considering that the batteries might die, I'll keep at least 5 of them.

Also, if people want it on here, cool. If not, ok then. No problems. I have other means of resources. And besides, the markup is only like $10. That covers gas, driving, handling, and traffic.

Oh yeah..thanks for the info.

;)

For what it's worth, I just found one at the West Little Rock OD in Arkansas - I had gone in last weekend when I had first found out about it but they didn't have any. I also picked up some PC software for $2.44 - NBA Live 2000, The Incredible, Amazing Machine, and RC Racers.

The Logitech FF wheel was still $44.xx and the Logitech joystick was 12.xx.

lol, that was fun

i beleive no more in wichita,ks

i went to the west location which is new, no go

went out east and saw the new ones, thought bummer, looked around some and then saw a box on the overstock shelf, peeked at it and sure enough 19 minutes! tried not to yell... bought some cdrs, turbo tax (wife said i needed to be getting it), and this ups @ 22.49, used a 15 off 50 coupon and out the door i went for 38 bucks.

thank you so much op

cashier and manager looked at each other and manager said under his breath " well that's a good price" ROFLMAO, had a huge smile on my face as i walked out.

at least you went
and at least you posted that you got one, you get props
same here, finally got one that was hidden from inventory, etc.
anyway, saw this big swoll dude with glasses strolling out (while i was walking in) holding a 500va also--where is he and why hasn't he thanked mr. mike bb for the deal? i want to call him a fat louse and a parasite (he wouldn't have found the deal on his own--he looked like he barely can get up and change the channel hisself!), but i don't want no trouble

Well I wanna thank puppyfriend for telling me about the harrison store. Of course when I got there, there wasn't 10... Zclyh3 probably got them already :) But lucky for me he left 2 of them. One was so tore up, look like some animal was nawling on it and the other one had one rip. I pick up the ripped up one.

Sorry lawais. I didn't go to the Harrison store. Just got a new job so I didn't much care anymore. Besides, I still got like 8 of them.
