whatchell1 said:Deal souded great and the price was excellent. Web site said they had some in the Oklahoma City Store but when I called the Best Buy to have him hold me one, he said there were only 2 left in Fayetville Arkansas. None no where else in the nation from what he said. Bummer.

Reason #1 why you don't call the store. My bro in law works for BB and I called him to check the system around my area.

3 Stores in Georgia have them. No where else in the nation eh.......lol Guess what you just tipped him off to the deal and now he's smiling ear to ear with a $449 laptop in his hands. Good job.

I think the problem with the link is the itemID. How did you come up with 1005621 from the google cache page?

Ai42 said:check store availabilityNot sure when people will learn that this trick does not work. Ive been saying this for a long time now. For example two stores in my area show instock yet the store computer shows zero. Seen it with my own eyes. The trick dont work.

Unfortunately this link is completely false. it showed available in 5 stores in my area and when i went to the store the csr looked in the computer(infact showed me the search screen) to find just 1 store with display model.
so dont get duped with the link.

The stock checking trick for clearance items does not work. It never did. People dont understand this.

When I used the google cached page and did store availability it only showed in stock at 1 store in mass. When I clicked on the link in that post it showed in stock everywhere. somethin ain't right.

different product Id, source Id, and item ID

LINK FROM GOOGLE CACHE:

Is that current stock? Or as of an hour ago or something? I just want to make sure before I drive the 20 miles to the alpharetta store. Thanks.

Yeah I noticed that too. The link via the google cache seems correct to me. I went to one that said they had it and they had several.

I scored two MT6828 in previous deal after checking stock via link provided in the post.

Many FWer did agree that inventory checking works.......

Same thing happened to me. This link showed the MT6456 in all the stores near me. Left work, drove 20 minutes to the store, not one there. There aren't any in the region. Thanks for wasting an hour of my life with the worthless STORE AVAILABILITY link.

Just picked up one in Richfield, MN. Got it for $395 atfer 12% coupon. The guy siad it was thier last one, though the computer showed 1 more in stock. Also, it showed 1 in Edina and 0 in the rest of the Twin Cities area (incl Eagan which I verified).

BTW, they had a MT6458 for $550 ($100 more). The only spec differences looked like slighlty different processor w/ less cache, a name Marvell wireless card and a faster hard drive. Can anyone comment? Thay had plenty of those left (8, I think)

doesnt the coupon exclude laptops


alert mods    

Any there any deals next week for buying a laptop? In that case we can return/rebuy to make it sweet.


alert mods    

Thanks OP!

I picked one up in Greensboro, NC about 30 minutes ago at the $449 (4 left behind). I tried to use the 10/12% & almost got away with it (the cashier was doing an override ... but then she started to read the exclusions ). Anyway, I was able to use two BB gift cards that I have had for the past 6 months and am very happy with the purchase.


alert mods    

I didn't look to close at what the coupon included, but I did read the exclutions and I didn't see laptops. When the coupon was scanned the discount was $0, so you could be correct. THe employee manually removed 12% without question.

Ran to El Segundo BB only to find out someone had purchased the last one half hour ago. FW effect? Felt kind of bummed out not getting this deal until I passed by one on display. It is arguably the ugliest laptop out there. It is hideous - looks like a SS refrigerator opened and a plastic trash can closed. Good spec for the price tho.
