I ordered two of them. One for my kids PC, and one for a system I'm doing for a friend. Both cancelled. The $30 was a rebate that ended 12/31/00.

Oh no, not Samsung. But I could have ordered it elsewhere and still got the rebate if we had known. Give me some ammo here, I'm still on hold...

What are you going to say? The best you can do is tell them to honor that $30 coupon, if not tell them you'll buy elsewhere.

I'll nuke the SOBs! There must be some recourse. I'll even beg for a damn coupon or something. Yeah, I'll be nice... at first...

I've generally had good luck with Onvia. I could have got it at a B&M and still had the rebate if I'd known it was out of stock (it still shows as in stock). It would be silly to blame Samsung.

NO! I BLAME LXI!!! YOU TOLD US TO GET IT YOU LYING #@%@@&@*> Heh, just kidding ;);)

How dare they still list "In Stock". Buy.com has it for $220 with $10 rebate, but no free shipping, not much of a help.

Hmmm, still on hold and still keeping my head. Been 45 minutes now. I should be getting paid for this, no? :(

Whew! Just talked to a fellow named "Jessie" and he said he's got one and he'll send it using the same invoice with the December 30th date on it.

Yeah, I just told him I knew where he lived and asked if he valued his mother's health etc. ;)

Honestly, I don't know what the story is, but the order number is supposed to show it being shipped tomorrow. Sorry to bother you all, but this is kind of a biggie for me.

Take Care,
Ornery

oldfart:

Call them and tell the same thing, "I know where you live and if you care about your mom...".

Staples is $243 w free shipping. I'll check around later and see if I can find a good deal. Onvia is great for monitors. Cheap AND free shipping.
