Me too!

[lithiumli]

same, i hope there are more deals and hopefully good deals

[Derek]

No... that's just a taste... there's definitely more coming :)

They better have upgraded their servers this year if they expect us to be "surfing" for the online only deals. Last year though they had that bar to the right with all the deals so you just had to click, add to cart and purchase. It still took awhile to do that but just be persistant and have your accounts ready to go. I remember the Logitech Bluetooth MX900 Mouse for $49 last year. But if its anything like last year, it will be more like crawling then surfing.

[Mike71]

Thanks for the info, but nothing there I am interested in so far.

[Badman]

No... that's just a taste... there's definitely more coming :)

well so far it dont taste great ;)

[silvermark]

Hahahaha

[LoveRFD]

IMHO, 229.99 for a color laser print is a very good price, just don't know how the quality is, Minolta is a decent brand.

For the Athena speakers, I'm tempted to get a set, but wondering if there will be any problem to return it later if I'm not satisfied with it. I've heard there're some restrictions on boxing day like they don't PM on boxing day.

[CanadianCool]

bring on more deals FS, i'll be waiting...

[Jon Lai]

Correction. They meant servercrashers, lol.

If anyone finds any servercrashers please post them here, thanks!

[Jag]

I like boxing day

they have it on display at my FS location. it is ok...gets really fricken hot near the paper exit.

color quality is meh...dont expect to frame anything. its pretty grainy.

but if you want basic laser with color abilities this is great

[sentinel]

I like boxing day
lol... that's nice.

[Derek]

added one...

[MARINE BETTA]

well another 8 minutes to go, time to get that credit card ready. >:( :D

[mahjongmaniac]

err... let's hope there's more better "web-only" deals to come....

[inferno_gn]

Hi there,

It's the end of the world as we know it...

Ju Leon...

[Badman]

thin about christmas day to ease the pain :lol: .......seems like everyone forgot about that

[Battscrew]

3 minutes

[mlerner]

Wow, it's slow already. I can still take it though. :cheesygri

[RaynorWolfcastle]

and it's crashed as far as I can tell...

[x-batman]

NOT LOADING!!! (Although there are no deals I am really after lol)

[sxz]

It's 12:05 EST and FS.ca is down already. So much for the prep?

[Sting]

I know what I want, but I can't even login. The server already crash ... you think these people would learn from their mistakes ... What a disappointment :mad:

[Div]

Its loading fine for me. Its RFD that was giving me problems as of a couple of minutes ago.

[mlerner]

Yes, it appears they haven't learned from last year. GET SOME MORE FREAKIN SERVERS FUTURESHOP! Thank you.

[heli88]

Can't checkout either.

Is there a amount you have to order for free shipping?

[xeodragon]

login seems hella slow...

[JayPatel]

wow.. the sites 404'd

[Battscrew]

can't check out

[JayPatel]

btw, the site is more responsive with Internet Explorer. Firefox is just stalling. Im able to navigate the site with IE.

[spy cl]

anybody checked out sucessfully?

[CH40Z_008]

WTF i been waiting for the page to load up for 10 mins... i hope i could purchase my stuff quick..... anyway Merry Xmas! :D

[The_One]

Both sites still running fine for me. RFD is slower in loading. :lol:

[puff_daddy_58_99]

the bestbuy site seems to be a lot quicker than the FS one....

[CSR]

Noo lag..

[lithiumli]

mine is working perfectly

[itsmypostoffice]

bunch of morons hired a bunch of over paid consultants to make things worse. i could have told them we (not RFD) overloaded them in past years so what do they do? shut the site and ask ALL customers to hammer in at the Same Exact Time & Check Out... jokes.

BB & FS should hand out $5 coupons for all this trouble. silly goose, they should know by now -- just ask staples :twisted:

[clboy]

bought 2 hard drives :)

[mlerner]

ok now it's not loading. Listen up peeps: just let me get this last item and checkout then you can hammer the server for everyone else. k? thanks.

[Raxel]

simply don't see anything worth buying, probably my first boxing day no purchase from futureshop

[slotscanada]

Stayed up to try and get a few small items from both FS and BB. Able to browse the sites (slowly) but CHECKOUT impossible since 12:01am. FS just hangs and BB - 404 after a few secs each time.

Ah well, I guess off to bed... Good luck to others..... >:(

[SuperManh]

Trying to order two spindle of Fujifilm DVD+R 100 Spindle @ $24.99 a piece, checkout is crawling...

[JohnyM]

Their site is working fine for surfing. But checkout is not working, yet.

[JohnyM]

Waited at checkout since 12:01 and finally,
"Some of the items in your shopping cart are not available for shipment. Please remove these items"

[theinfamous]

simply don't see anything worth buying, probably my first boxing day no purchase from futureshop


Ditto! >:(

[Battscrew]

Finally checked out waiting for email confirmation

[walmart]

guess I should check my screen tomorrow morning.

the site states:

The next page might take a few seconds to load. Thank you for your patience. :lol:

[xeodragon]

wow i cant check out at all...

[UNiON]

haha! checked out with all my items :D

[7jai]

holy mothers, this is taking so long haha oh yeh merry xmas.

[SuperManh]

GGRRRRRR can't checkout, server timing out

[xeodragon]

u didn't get any errors?!

[sentinel]

simply don't see anything worth buying, probably my first boxing day no purchase from futureshop
yeah...me too. feels kind of weird, like I should be buying something. oh well

[sureLoss]

looks like they prepared the main site... but forgot to get the secure checkout (ssl) server ready...

[KurwaMasz]

this sucks

ive had items in my cart since 12:00:30


****

[xeodragon]

wow major letdown, how could they let this happen? im very disappointed...

[RaynorWolfcastle]

yup, checkout looks borked. I managed to check out at BB with a DVD recorder/VCR for my dad after several attempts. Futureshop is blocked solid, I can't checkout my few small items

[TinyTank]

got everything i wanted; canon sd500, fridge, memory card, wireless keyboard set. :D

[killbillvol1]

simply don't see anything worth buying, probably my first boxing day no purchase from futureshop

same here probably - I may pickup a DVD player or an LCD but not gonna go through the aggravation of lineups, and online sluggishness

[Chief]

Really disappointed compared to last couple of years where i spent over $200 each. Ah well, good luck and Merry Christmas all.

[Trigger]

Stuck at Check-out too.. both IE and Firefox.

Sadly there isn't much to buy. I bought the JVC DVD player from Best Buy (I hope the extra $10 for the name 'JVC' is worth it compared to no-name $30 players)..

and am waiting for my friends at Futureshop to accept my secure checkout for the AudioSlave in Cuba DVD and Kingdom of Heaven. So much trouble for two DVDs...

[xeodragon]

im having trouble logging in, and there are alrdy price errors (price is higher than what's advertised)

[sentinel]

there's some web only desktops pretty cheap...sorta:

http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/class.asp?logon=&langid=EN&catid=1003

[7jai]

sigh. waitting.

[humayoon]

yeah...me too. feels kind of weird, like I should be buying something. oh well

I feel that way too

[xeodragon]

ya, not much this year

[Battscrew]

Pretty sure I got mine - XM Roady and XM Audiovox

[7jai]

i bought the same thing too, the jvc dvd player. I also got the 5 dollars off certificate from the pricing error on their monitors on top. making it 34.99. but sigh...alas...waiting =)

[odbc32]

still waiting for check out as well.. so much time waiting to check out a web cam.. i think i should just give up... :(

[raptorsfever]

I feel that way too

yeah me, too. what's a good buy?

[Riddick]

Me too. Can't get by the login screen to check out.

[7jai]

OK WHO IS HOLDING UP THE ENTIRE LINEE??? lol do your returns ELSEWHERE! haha =) :lol:

[devildude8989]

I can't log in nor checkout in Firefox nor IE :( $300+ of stuff

[Vaxine]

quick question??if something is there in the cart can it be still checked out fter couple of hours??or would it be like out of stock thing??

[wesleyw]

quick question??if something is there in the cart can it be still checked out fter couple of hours??or would it be like out of stock thing??

it will become out of stock if it is the hot items

[mahjongmaniac]

OK WHO IS HOLDING UP THE ENTIRE LINEE??? lol do your returns ELSEWHERE! haha =) :lol:

well 7jai, u can help ur fellow RFDers a lil bit if u get off their servers for a moment while we checkout :cheesygri

[shadowfighta]

I think it's "reserved" for you but I'm not 100% sure of that. I just tried to check out and apparently one of the items I added almost 30 minutes ago when there were a ton in stock is now out of stock for me.

[Guess_11]

Can't find anything i'm interested in buying. Any good deals?

[bgggg2001]

definately sold out i had the jvc dvd player in my cart and now it says i have to remove it because it is not for sale...and of course i go check stock and it is sold out

[ctc027]

Got the Canon SD500 for $399. :lol: :lol: :lol:

[anom]

I think it's "reserved" for you but I'm not 100% sure of that. I just tried to check out and apparently one of the items I added almost 30 minutes ago when there were a ton in stock is now out of stock for me.

yah I don't think it's reserved...if they sell out by the time it works for you, then you can't get it...that's why everyone's pissed.

[Vaxine]

if an item is in your cart it shuld be given a valid checkout i presume...why hve the cart if it just disappears before checkout??

[gcw23]

anyone have any opinion on the 200 pack Kodak 4x DVD-R's web only deal for 39.99? These discs any good?

http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?sku_id=0665000FS10061782&logon=&langid=EN

[Boardman]

definately sold out i had the jvc dvd player in my cart and now it says i have to remove it because it is not for sale...and of course i go check stock and it is sold out

Try the BB site - 170+ left 2 min's ago. I got one in the basket trying to check out. Gonna be a looooooooooong night lol!

[jiffylube1024]

Ditto to what everyone else is experiencing. Can't check out at all.

[xeodragon]

sites starting to work for me! w00t!

[anom]

if an item is in your cart it shuld be given a valid checkout i presume...why hve the cart if it just disappears before checkout??

cuz they SUCK!

[hp]

I picked up the SD500 and laser colour printer, anyone know if the Digimate LCD is still available?

What about the wireless combo?

Thanks

hp

[7jai]

well 7jai, u can help ur fellow RFDers a lil bit if u get off their servers for a moment while we checkout :cheesygri


LOL I knew that mahjong had a play in this HOLD UP!!! Buddy, how many times do I have to tell you, you CANNOT hog ALL THE DAMN LCDS!! lol Stop buying everything in bulks of 20!! rofl :lol:

[wesleyw]

LOL I knew that mahjong had a play in this HOLD UP!!! Buddy, how many times do I have to tell you, you CANNOT hog ALL THE DAMN LCDS!! lol Stop buying everything in bulks of 20!! rofl :lol:

Only 20? You're giving him too little credit :lol:

[RaynorWolfcastle]

I'm trying to get:
- Systemworks 2006 - $50, there's surely a competitive upgrade MIR floating around which I'll use since I have systemworks 2002
- AoE 3 - $30, nice deal
- Tragically hip CD - $6 off a CD I was going to buy anyway
- Maxell DVD-R media - good media for cheap

Of the rest of the deals only the Canon camera caught my eye, but I don't need a camera

*shrug*
I won't be too upset if I can't manage to check these items out, there's nothing terribly I really wanted anyway

[ctc027]

Ditto to what everyone else is experiencing. Can't check out at all.
Couldn't checkout with IE but got through with netscape.

[mahjongmaniac]

the $25/100pk or the $6/25pk

in either case, they're likely to be MIT...

just a reminder that back in the good ol' days of 150% PMing, u could get the 25 pks for ~$5-6 and they were MIJ Maxells/TYs... now THOSE were awesome deals...


anyway... still a "somewhat" good deal i guess...

[devildude8989]

I still can't get thru with my $350 ish cart :(

[7jai]

Only 20? You're giving him too little credit :lol:

haha yeh, i tend to do that sometimes, since he is the maniac of "mahjong" and i'm the KING of it =)

[Boardman]

I can't get through at BB either - stuck in checkout since 12:02 am. Guess they can take their $40 JVC dvd player and stick it. Having to wait an hour to check out is rediculous. Guess no one learned from last years fun.

[DrkMnX]

Is the Logitech MX700 Cordless Mouse for $39.99 a good deal? Is it the same mouse that comes with the LX700 Keyboard/Mouse Combo?

[hp]

Hey,

On one of my orders they are charging me $45 for shipping is this normal? I thought FS had free shipping?

hp

[Boardman]

Hey,

On one of my orders they are charging me $45 for shipping is this normal? I thought FS had free shipping?

hp

One their homepage it says free shipping - even boxing day. Might wanna check that charge out to see if it is a small print "exception". On the up side, at least ya made it through checkout lol!

The 25 pack, I don't really use that many of them
A) I don't think you can get those kinds of prices anymore ;)
B) I really don't use that many discs. I have a 25-disc spindle from when I PMed at 150% and I still have maybe 5 of them left. I only use them to burn the occasional home video and a few here and there for data transfers.

I honestly don't see how people can go through 100-disc spindles in 2 months unless they are pirating every movie under the sun.

[mlerner]

Hey,

On one of my orders they are charging me $45 for shipping is this normal? I thought FS had free shipping?

hp

Where do you live? They do charge shipping in some areas depending how far you live.

[JohnyM]

On one of my orders they are charging me $45 for shipping is this normal? I thought FS had free shipping?

Is it "Special Delivery" item? Everything else should be free shipping

[xtremedrunk]

This sucks, everything is going so slow. I had what i wanted and i just kept trying to checkout but things arent working and now it's "Sold out". This means i have to go for the 10 that they have instore.

[hp]

Where do you live? They do charge shipping in some areas depending how far you live.

Shipping addr is to Downtown Toronto, close to Yonge/Bloor

Is it possible to do a store pickup instead?

I find it kind of strange, cause my first order, I got free shipping. Only the second order I get shipping charges.

hp

[xeodragon]

thats one hella shipping charge, did u buy a tv or something?

[7jai]

Ok guys, FINALLY. I can confirm that I got thru checkout just a few seconds ago!!!

Got the $59.99 (after MIR) rebate Konica-Minolta Laser Printer.

My friend has the same one, and it prints REALLY REALLY SMALL font very very accurately. And of course it prints ultra fast =)

98 LEFT @ fs.ca!!!



Now I have to wait for my BEST BUY one to move =(

[charge]

screw this crap, 15 minutes and it won't even let me log on to the webite....

not worth it to save $30

:mad: :mad:

[zyad]

I think some items are not under the free shipping policy. I remember reading it in the fine print earlier today.

[mlerner]

Ok you shouldn't have been charged shipping and store pickup will not be available again until next month.

[sparkplug]

This sucks, everything is going so slow. I had what i wanted and i just kept trying to checkout but things arent working and now it's "Sold out". This means i have to go for the 10 that they have instore.

Last year, the web site stock kept getting restocked every several hours. For instance, they kept running out of Benq 200 DVD-Rs (or maybe it was CD-Rs) every couple hours last year, but another 200 quantity would magically appear shortly after it said Sold Out.

[jtcb]

I can't checkout.. :(

[hp]

Ok you shouldn't have been charged shipping and store pickup will not be available again until next month.

Yeah, I got that, Anyways, I will call them on boxing day to correct this mistake.

hp

[xeodragon]

its taking a while for that confirmation email :(

[hp]

thats one hella shipping charge, did u buy a tv or something?

Yeah, I got in on the digimate 32 LCD TV

[consumerPI]

Try 45 mins and counting?

screw this crap, 15 minutes and it won't even let me log on to the webite....

not worth it to save $30

:mad: :mad:

[ctc027]

its taking a while for that confirmation email :(

Just got the confirmation email and it "Unable to process your order." Grrrrrr :mad: And I want that CANON SD500 too.

[mlerner]

Yeah, I got in on the digimate 32 LCD TV

that's why. TV's and certain electronics require special delivery, which means an extra delivery charge.

[Boardman]

This sucks, everything is going so slow. I had what i wanted and i just kept trying to checkout but things arent working and now it's "Sold out". This means i have to go for the 10 that they have instore.

I say screw 'em. If they can't set up an e-com site to accomodate what they know will be a boat load of traffic I say the don't deserve our $$$. I realize the servers are gettin hit hard but they MUST have expected this and not being able to check out for over an hour and a quarter is just plain insane. I can do without the stuff I bought so they ain't gettin' my $$$ cause they didn't earn the sale.

Did your friend run out of toner yet? Cos that printer sucks with it's "print count limit and then force user to buy more toner when it still has lots left system".

[(Bean)]

well after crashing 3 times during my order and finally dropping me right when I confirmed - it is out of stock. I waited for NOTHING. lol isn't that always the way.

[mlerner]

This kinda sucks, I think i'll quit too and try again when I wake up.

[JohnyM]

Yeah, I got in on the digimate 32 LCD TV
Which is "Special Delivery" item.

[mahjongmaniac]

LOL I knew that mahjong had a play in this HOLD UP!!! Buddy, how many times do I have to tell you, you CANNOT hog ALL THE DAMN LCDS!! lol Stop buying everything in bulks of 20!! rofl :lol:

hahaha... that's right i hogged everything.... :lol:

[devildude8989]

The chance I got where it started working for about 60 secs I don't recall my password :(

[TinyTank]

Which is "Special Delivery" item.

which sucks. I had to pay $50 shippping for the fridge i just bought. Now, i have to wake up early on boxing day to see if i can buy this instore w/ free shipping ( my dad knows people there)

[ariel]

still waiting to check out.... OMG I thin I'm gonna go to sleep

Merry Xmas and Happy Hannukah

[xMrGonex]

is this Digimate TV any good??

here's the link (http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?sku_id=0665000FS10069074&logon=&langid=EN&MSCSProfile=3C79F0C7EA3162B2AD2D24472DF6467F84625C ED16DD460863EC86749D12D4E4DCC4454252E49CD65AB6757D CE148994D65D2A745E61E1A0670C9444F9755B14891D8E2BF1 DE7A63FE65A5B2C668C550F815D73E5F3418FB08446DFCF520 9341FD5FFE18B82BFCA26B689FBF4E2E895EDD31A4D3CA1E6A 3E)

[apoca0075]

Well it took me a total of 42 frustrating minutes, starting from 12:01 to finally place my order. Good luck to the rest of you fighting the good fight. Friggin' servers. Any chance BB is going to give me back, at least 30 minutes of my life? I won't hold my breath.

Once again, good luck. It's going to be a war of attrition.
You against the FS & BB servers!!! :evil:

Later...

[consumerPI]

I've hit crtl F5 like 50 times now. WTF?

How many tries did it take for you to finally get through?

[king_bizzo]

Say what you want, but I just picked up a 250-gig hard drive for a hundred bucks, I'm not complaining.


...though apparently my buddy hit "refresh" a few too many times and ordered five TVs. Sucks to be his mailman.

[Neil]

Everything I'm trying to order has $50 to $70 shipping charges added on?
Even the 7" LCD which probably weighs 3 lbs.
Stupid!

[Mark099]

After almost 90 minutes of trying to buy Norton SystemWorks 2006 for $49.99 it sold out. I still haven't been able to login to my account.

EDIT: Well, after 99 minutes of trying, I am logged in. Still 15 minutes too late, however.

I sent an email to CS already. I fully expect FS to sell me NSW 2006 for the same $49.99 later next week.

[shadowfighta]

Yeah this is stupid... I was at 3/5 of the checkout process and now i have to log in again and start over.

[Toronto Gamblers]

which sucks. I had to pay $50 shippping for the fridge i just bought. Now, i have to wake up early on boxing day to see if i can buy this instore w/ free shipping ( my dad knows people there)

If its the Haier, I'll buy it from you if you end up getting one in store.

[ctc027]

Ah screw this. I'm going to bed. Damn server keep asking me to relogon after few timeout. Good luck with your orders and MERRY XMAS.

[shadowfighta]

I'm sure FS and BB will restock over the week like last year.

[Sting]

What a WASTE of time. I only login in NOW to find out my item is SOLD out. What a waste of time and a joke the way FS does biz. And same goes for BB as well ... what is the point of shopping there and being early if you can't buy what you want and have to fight with other people online because the item is limited to only for a certain amount. :mad:

[devildude8989]

Got my order thru

[mahjongmaniac]

I'm sure FS and BB will restock over the week like last year.

yeah, but then u dunno exactly WHEN they restock...

and by the time u know about it, it'll prbly be RFD'd... :P

so if u really want it, u'll literally have to check every hr...

[konfusion666]

Did your friend run out of toner yet? Cos that printer sucks with it's "print count limit and then force user to buy more toner when it still has lots left system".

most of the "cheap" printers are like that, so you might as well get the cheapest one available -- this one!

the quality of the printer is fine, speed is fine, first-page-out is fine, so it's definitely worth the $60 or whatever.

DAMN BASTARD ...I WASTED 2HRS AND 15 MINS....STILL CAN'T CHECK OUT!!!!

MUST BE OUT OF STOCKS!!!!

What a WASTE of time. I only login in NOW to find out my item is SOLD out. What a waste of time and a joke the way FS does biz. And same goes for BB as well ... what is the point of shopping there and being early if you can't buy what you want and have to fight with other people online because the item is limited to only for a certain amount. :mad:

[shadowfighta]

yeah, but then u dunno exactly WHEN they restock...

and by the time u know about it, it'll prbly be RFD'd... :P

so if u really want it, u'll literally have to check every hr...

Hahah yeah I know. I got lucky last yr on the restocks :p

[hitman666]

FS=F**KING SH*THEAD!!!!!!!!!!

After almost 90 minutes of trying to buy Norton SystemWorks 2006 for $49.99 it sold out. I still haven't been able to login to my account.

EDIT: Well, after 99 minutes of trying, I am logged in. Still 15 minutes too late, however.

I sent an email to CS already. I fully expect FS to sell me NSW 2006 for the same $49.99 later next week.

This year, I am interested in the WD 250G HD. I bought the WD 250G HD during last years boxing day sale and sent in and got the MIR.

Anyone know if the rebate offer number for this year is the same as last year? The rebate says one per address. I probably shouldn't worry, but does anyone still happen to have the rebate form from last year? Is it the same rebate offer number identical to the one from last year? Thanks.

maybe, but there's a mail in rebate link on the website so you can print out the form, why are you concerned if it's a new number or the same as last year's?

i was going to order one of those 250gigs myself but didn't, planning to get an OEM hdd from a local computer store instead, a WD SataII 250GB 16mb buffer hdd is selling for 134 at canadacomputers (just looked it up)
so i guess after taxes on ur rebate, the costs aren't that much of a difference, i'm not interested in the box for the hard drive

My only concern is that if it is the SAME rebate offer number, then the rebate company could legitimately say that I have already submitted one from last year's boxing day sale.

DAmn, that JVC DVD player was a hot deal for $40. It even plays PAL and JPEG stills on your tv set. Bummer, I wasnt looking for a dvd player but I sure would've liked to have this one.

[blkm3]

LOL got everything i wanted but in multiples of 5 or 6 .. oh well gotta lug this stuff back to them

[IVNP]

Anyone knows those Philips dvd disc any good? Kinda tempted to pick one to test it out but I got loads of dvd discs already. BB's 1.99 for 10 pak Maxell -/+ sure sold out fast...but $25 for 100 aint too bad at all. Order 3 + anyway to see if they're MiJ... Is it - or the + that's likely to be MiJ nowadays? Just earlier this month, I got bunch of the MiJ +R 50 disc spindle from BB in store so I went with the +. If 100 spindle is MiJ, those 50 disc spindle are going back since it's a bit cheaper.(14.99 each)

[bigg_popa]

cursor media at FS was 29.99 for a 200 pack of DVD-R (or +R)....anyone know if they are any good?

I've gotten a WD HD the past 3 boxing weeks. I haven't had any problems with the MIRs... although I can't recall whether I alternated between BB & FS. :?:

If ya want one keep checking .... I just checked and they must have restocked as there were 67 available. As I spend over an hour trying to buy one just after midnight and got no where I can't be bothered giving them my business for it. Gonna hit a B&M store tomorrow and see what type of deals I can find.

[jla0]

The retail WD drives that FS sells also only come with 1 year warranty (vs OEM with 3 years)... you buy extended warranty with the retail (in US$) and in the end it will be as expensive as buying the OEM from NCIX or something.

COLD DEAL!

[jpawloski]

where do i find the rebate to bring it down to 60?

For a total of $111.19 after MIR, I wouldn't call this a cold deal at all. It's not smoking hot or anything, but it is still a good deal. WD's a very good brand, all three of our computers are running ont heir drives and not one has failed in 3 years so far. The one year warranty is a little daunting, but most drives that do fail, fail within a year. This would be a great drive to use as an external HDD with an enclosure. I myself will be getting one from Bcom, but that is a different story.

[GreenWeenie]

how long does an e-mail take to show that your order was confirmed???Took 3hours for the confirmations from FS to show up on items purchased at 8:20am EST

[Maz_Atenza]

are they still restocking the WD 250g HD ??
thanks

[MrDisco]

are they still restocking the WD 250g HD ??

according to the FS rep they will be restocking items, however they did not say which items. my guess is that yes the HD will be restocked.

[Pavel]

As I spend over an hour trying to buy one just after midnight and got no where I can't be bothered giving them my business for it.

Just got up now. Checked and 0 available for both BB & FS.

I wonder how many leeches who got 5 or 6+ of them are going to try to flip them. Hopefully the mods won't allow such posts at RFD.

Also the WD 250GB drive is still a hot deal considering that many people still don't have a SATA interface on their PC. As far as warranty goes, WD is very reliable and many credit card companies offer double the warranty up to one year, so if you don't have problems within the first 1 years or so, your fine.

[robg]

IMHO, 229.99 for a color laser print is a very good price, just don't know how the quality is, Minolta is a decent brand.

For the Athena speakers, I'm tempted to get a set, but wondering if there will be any problem to return it later if I'm not satisfied with it. I've heard there're some restrictions on boxing day like they don't PM on boxing day.

I've seen the output from this printer... it looks great. Just be aware of replacement toner costs down the road, but that's gonna be about the same regardless of which printer you buy. There are very cheap refill kits too, so that's always an option.

[baileyr]

It's not likely to be the same rebate offer number, so you shouldn't have any problems...

i wanna knw too!

i wanna knw too!

Everyone wants to know and buy one, lol

[ViperZ]

It's not the best sub (I used to own studio-series S120PII's, now have PB12's), but definitely the best bang (lol, real bang) for the buck.
And a good deal on R30's too... but I already have RT1000p's, which will blow them away :)

[biggunstwo]

Will JBL PB8 be restocked?


probably wont be retocked

they were trying to get rid of them at $100 before (before boxing day)

It's not even warm man. I get a total of $123.99 after the MIR. I'll wait for a better deal from NCIX or Anitec.ca and by the time you get your MIR (8 to 10 weeks).. I'll have a Seagate with 5 year warranty for the same (or better) price.

It's a cold deal... not even worth Boxing Day status.

[supastar]

Could someone plz give me a quick opinion on the Hdview 17" LCD monitor that is on sale at BB for $200? Is it any good, or a crappy monitor?
Thx;

Yeah, you're right. I presume a lot of people will be returning much of what they bought online.
