I've got to chime in and say it's refreshing to not be hearing all about the g*ddam Wii this Chritmas season. Good riddance!

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.

Did it take long to receive your card? I would think they would rush these out as fast as they can before Christmas.
My fingers are crossed hoping this will combine with the Dell deal to make this a super hot deal.

Sony CSR is now telling people you have to buy it through sonyreward.com in order for the $150 credit to work, take a look here

Link

how do they verify you actually got a ps3 not something else (like $400 of Dell or Amazon gift card) if you don't go through sonyrewards.com

In for one!!! thanks OP!

I think it may fly - since $150 could be coming from Chase - and it's kind of a sign on bonus (like w/Chase Sony card) - and offer clearly states from any authorized retailer!!! Good luck!

I will call Sony CSR myself tomorrow, if you purchased a PS3 from Amazon, on statement, it simply say $399.99 charge, it does not state you purchased a ps3, what if I simply buy $399.99 worth of Amazon gift card ?

So, what order should I use the -$150 and coupons? I'm signing up for the Sony card right now.


alert mods    

Just applied through http://www.sonyrewards.com/en/gateway/?offerlink=150newps3
Got approved instantly, but didn't get CC number (or any kind of ID number) online
Said I'll get my card in two weeks. Dam!
Oh well, been meaning to get this card anyways. Just hoping now that WalMart will have another PS3 deal.


alert mods    

I hope I get my card in 2 weeks, and PS3 deal show up. On the Sony card thread, it mentioned first puchase has to be done before 12/13/08 to get $150 credit.

I've been checking the forums on this deal, and there are 2 Sony credit card deals. They both have the $150, but if you sign up through the Sony Rewards one, you can only buy from sonyrewards.com. The other card, you can get from any authorized dealer.

You are absolutely right. I signed up back in July for the one that was $100 credit to the statement on purchase of PS3 (did not say SonyStyle) and got it at WalMart. I already got the $100 credit without even having to call them.

Let me see if I can hunt down the link for that offer.

Edit:

Link for $150 Statement Credit Sony Visa Card Offer

Updated OP with some offers that I found on SonyStyle.

Guys, I was just approved for the card. Is there a way to get my card # or do I have to wait 2 weeks?

Is there a number I can call to get the number?

Thanks

Here are the actual details about the promotion(s).

b. Receive the credit card number and CVV2 number upon approval.

b. Purchase a PS3 (using the account and CVV2 numbers) at sonyrewards/SonyStyle and get $150 instant credit.

I might be under a rock - how did you get 313 with DPA? I want to buy one, but want that extra $10 off.

Far Cry 2 = FAIL

Should have been named "Make Me Cry Too" (from boredom)

I'm thinking about using method 2 so I can buy from Dell through OP's deal. But, I would have to wait for the Sony Card to be sent to me before I can buy from Dell. Are the OP's coupon codes going to good by the time I get the new card? When do those coupon codes expire?

Thanks. Looks like I won't be able to get the 5% off, but might get the 15% if it comes early enough..
