Good deal on a PS3, though remember tax in most states which brings the total discount to about 15-10% (Still pretty good)

there's a bundle with far cry 2 only $399 for even better deal

Adding the coupons removes the instant rebate on the Bundle, so you can't do it.

Did worked for me. Thanks

styleza said: there's a bundle with far cry 2 only $399 for even better deal

good call

This also works on PSP 2000.

Doesn't work on Far Cry bundle since it eliminates the existing 60$ off.

Just ordered one, came out to $346 with tax. Combined with the Playstation card discount and FatCash, the total will be well under $200!

I put in my card number, expiration date, etc. that came up after I filled out the application and Dell's checkout accepted it. Dell is listed as an authorized online retailer, so it should work.

But doesn't the sale price have to be $399? I think that with Dell's deal, the sale price is whatever the residual is once the coupons are taken off.

I bought a PS3 partly for the Blu Ray DVD player. Now I think that was a mistake. Blu Ray DVD's cost on average $10 more, and public libraries have none in stock.

I'm concerned by this on the Sony site:
http://www.sonyrewards.com/en/offers/index/ps3shopnow

At the bottom:
Instant credit and immediate use of the PlayStation Card is only available at SonyRewards.com. The $150 credit will be directly applied during the online purchase process at SonyRewards.com.

Dell checkout will of course accept the card, because it's a normal credit card, but I wouldn't expect to see that $150.

Thanks OP. Ordered one with my new PlayStation Card which I received today by mail (nice timing).
It should be ~$180 after taxes/credit/CashBack.
P.S. Called Sony to confirm the "Authorized Retailer" thing. They agree that the offer page does state "any" and Dell is one.

Click here and then on the superscript "1" at the end of the first paragraph.

Try it first and let us know if it works. I'm seeing alot of "should be, could be, and would be". Not really sure where you're getting the 180 number but if you apply the -$150 (w/Sony card) from $399 you get $249 and you take that and apply your coupons you should come to about $216 and this total includes tax and f/s.

Some of you are applying the -$150 towards $322 after applying the coupons but if Dell allows the -$150 it would only work from $399-150 first then the coupons.

wish Dell didn't charge tax - wishful thinking!

Quoted from the site:

Sony said: The $150 credit will be directly applied during the online purchase process at SonyRewards.com.

This offer is non-transferable and is limited a one-time use.

Purchase must be made by 3/7/09 - (even though it doesn't specify where, I'm guessing they mean SonyRewards.com)

That should be your red flag.

I doubt that getting your $150 will be automatic, or easy, but keep us posted, eh?

good deal thx.

msrp has to be 399

msrp has to be 399

This has already been discussed on the other PS3 $150 offer forum. It's saying that the $249 price is based on an MSRP of $399, not that the minimum purchase price is $399. CSR's have confirmed that as long as the purchase price is over $299, you're OK.

Got my rebate approved e-mail from Chase.

Thanks OP.
