SCREAMIN' - IPAQ 1910 for $245+tax, no rebate!!! (YMMV)

[joecool]

OfficeMax is sellin the IPAQ 1910 for $299 - $50 gift card. BestBuy won't match to the GC, but ... if you really want this PDA and don't want to mess with the OfficeMax GC and you're willing to spend some time at BestBuy, try this:

buy the IPAQ 1910 at BB for full price ($300).

take it back a few days later and return it. tell them you're returning it 'cause OMax has the $50 GC deal. If you're lucky (I was) they'll offer to match the OMax price +10% and credit you back $55+tax. You just got the PDA for $245+tax with no rebate hassles!!!

Worst case, they won't do the PM, and you have to actually return it. You can still buy it at OMax and get the GC if you want, or just punt on the whole deal.

enjoy!

I have to agree with iwearnosox.

The key words are: "maybe $55 if you're lucky!"

u can get it at Staples with the 50off200 coupon. No hassle..but the last time i check, they didnt have them in-stock

no pricematch or wait for the GC

I have seen this for 199 on a few hot deals of the past.... So I am gonna wait til I can get another deal like that again.....

It is easy to get it for $217. OM has it on sell for $299. Use $50 coupon and then get the $50 GC by rebate... Finally $217 (including tax)

uh, read my original post ... that's whay i'm talking about. but where do you see a $50 coupon? they're not selling the 1910 on their web site so the coupon doesn't do any good!

good deal... if i had saw this post i would of never bought it from crapusa for 299.99 plus tax.... gosh what a rip. if i return it i have to pay 15% restocking fee... i'll remember to watch the forums before i buy from now on.

(offtopic)
anyone noticed their 1910 kinda suck at playing video but has incredible audio playback for a pda.

Definitely not screaming. This has been on here numerous times for $199. I've seen it for even less when ecost had that price mistake.

$250 is pretty much the standard price considering you can almost always get it at Staples, OM or OD with a $50 coupon.

Also the H1910 is hardly brand new. It's been out for over four months now.

This is a warm deal. The H1910 isn't "brand new," but there's nothing better to replace what it does right now.

 

[dpopiz]

is there any method right now to get it cheaper? if not, is there any info about the possibility of getting it cheaper in the near future?

 

[dp004i]

Best (Worst) Buy will most likely slap you with a 15% restocking fee if you try to return it simply because OM is offering a GC, since they wouldn't pricematch the GC in the first place.

 

[jodhas]

Hardly a hot deal.

Joecool you're tryin' too hard to make this into a good deal. It aint. Change your Title to *Warm at Best*

the hp 1910 is a great pda i got when there was the $199 deal/pm

Call up OM and place your order over the phone. They'll accept the coupon.

Btw... The 1910 rocks!

Has anyone been able use their MSN Wallet money with this? OfficeMax $50 Giftcard and $50 off of $250 or more, plus MSN Wallet would make this pretty hot. Starting March 16th, the 1910 will have the $50 gift card again.

Your tying up alot of money in that deal.... but if you have to have this It's not a bad deal.
