Ok, buy.cam has the Plextor 16/10/40A for $259, but they don't have any coupons.
LINK


So, if anyone can come up with the Ingram Micro part # for this puppy, then you can get staples to price match and use the $40 off $200 coupon.


Come on, I know some of you guys have connections.

74 mins / 16x = 4.625 min. add around 30 seconds for pre burning processes and for cd to be closed or what not.

You could try calling up staples with:

IM1289314

in combination with the $40 off code. No guarantees though.

Well, attempted the Staples PM... that's if Staples actually had the product. I took the Ingram Micro info and ran with it... no luck...
the 2 emails and one call = "sorry, couldn't find it".
The CSR I called suggested that I wait for it... should be available soon hopefully... so keep your eyes peeled. That $40 off $200 with a PM should drop it close to $200 even, if not under. I'm gonna raid my B&M to ask there...

Your CSR was full of baloney. Ingram Micro has these drives in stock. They have 522 Drives in LA and 112 Drives in SF as of this morning. That's only 2 out of the 7 wherehouses that have these. Try calling again, maybe you'll get a CSR that knows how to search their database.

So what is the final price of this thing? $220 excluding tax and shipping?
