[sold out] BUY.COM crucial 256gb mSata 159.99 IR + 10% off[

[philipma1957]

This is for mSata not m4 2.5inch ssd

buy.com has a crucial mSata 256gb for 189.99 use code 53240D4 for instant 30 off this makes the price $159.99 they are running 10% rakuten superpoints 16 bucks to spend at a later date at buy.com so the price is 144. I inked to the site with this

http://www.buy.com/prod/crucial-m4-2...231543742.html


I put it in the cart I signed up for the 10% 1 day point deal. I check the cart without the code 1900 r-points. I put the code in price dropped to 159.99 r-points dropped to 1600.


I left that window open. I opened a second window and went to discovercard I used the discovercard buying list and found buy dot com I linked to the buy dot com site. I then went to the cart and was able to get the 159.99 price the 1600 points and I should get 5% from discovercard which is 8 more brings me to 136 for the msata. Getting buy dot com to allow a link from discovercard or ebates or mrrebates when they have bonus rakuten points is hit or miss.

but the 159.99 after the code is easy as is the 10% in points. so 144 is easy enough.

Double dang!

First, I had already purchased one for $165 at Amazon (hasn't shown up yet).

Second, OOS.

 

[philipma1957]

yeah I got the one from amazon and it is in a build, but this was just too of a deal not to buy it.

Now, why didn't I just click on the damned link?

These little drives would be very useful, then.

FYI ASRock elected to not use a SATA 6Gbps interface for the mSATA port on that motherboard, so performance will be limited.
