Free PCI Ethernet Card from Tiger Direct. YMMV (Not free shipping anymore)
 
65531 Attachment(s)
Tiger Direct has a free PCI 10/100/1000 Ethernet Card post a few min ago on Facebook. http://www.tigerdirect.com/applic...CJvnCSvNoo

You use coupon code XOZ49810.


EDIT: They just pulled the post because of checkout error. I called customer service and they helped me out. It was hard because TD pulled the Facebook post after a few minuets. I told the guy the that every time I tried to check out it just kept telling me that the shipping was changed. He took my order over the phone and it was totally free. YMMV

Link on Facebook is back up! https://www.facebook.com/TigerDirect

Might not be free shipping anymore....so less of a deal. Like I said...YMMV :(

THIS IS NOT FREE ANYMORE. You have to Pay Shipping and Taxes. (I don't know how to change the title or I would.)

Code works, but I'm still get charged shipping. 6 dollars about.

willardfishbean 12-01-2011 02:35 PM

Lol...ok now it is .02 cents. Tiger can't make up their minds. They keep posting it is free, so if you want or need one I think calling would be best. 800-800-8300

Yep still getting charged $6.29 for shipping. :mad:

wasabi_fu 12-01-2011 02:36 PM

Who did you speak to? Did they give you free shipping?

muoot 12-01-2011 02:37 PM

If you wondering, it is a Ultra PCI-E Ethernet Card

willardfishbean 12-01-2011 02:37 PM

I would call them up and tell them you saw their post on Facebook and it said free. Free card, Free Shipping. That's what I did and after he checked it out he said ok and got my info. No CC required. Just tell them that it kept giving you the check out error like I did? Other people have posted similar results as mine already.

I talked to customer service...not ordering.

Ocajavati 12-01-2011 02:40 PM

:lmao: Who needs one of these, really?

How did you get them to waive shipping? Did it say that on Facebook? Do you have a screen shot showing free shipping?

rds2 12-01-2011 02:45 PM

Added the shipping to mine too. Tempting 'cause it's free but I don't really need it, don't want to hassle with trying to sell it, and too tired right now to hassle with the phone call to get it. TU to op for posting tho, once I see it's confirmed by others. :rolleyes:

Wnsirlord 12-01-2011 02:45 PM

Just talked with CSR and got shot down when I asked for free shipping. Looks like a no go for me.

willardfishbean 12-01-2011 02:45 PM

Yes, its on the top of their list on Facebook. You can read all of the comments people put on the post just before the linked one.

I called and complained because when I went to check out the first time it said free shipping as the only shipping method and it wouldn't let you check out because of the error I mentioned. Rep put me on hold and then came back and said they would ship it to me free of charge. Free shipping and free card.

willardfishbean 12-01-2011 02:48 PM

This reminds me of a sweep a few years back where Western Union basically gave everyone free money....lol. Somebody is gonna get fired today too I guess...

gezzuzz 12-01-2011 02:49 PM

i think everyone who would need this have dozens just laying around..

willardfishbean 12-01-2011 02:50 PM

Free is free.... :) Even if I do have a pile of them.

same... they fix the free shipping error, so CSR are now denying the free shipping.

willardfishbean 12-01-2011 02:53 PM

Yeah, just check again.....they changed the title. "Now FREE Ultra PCI-E Ehternet Card (after coupon & before shipping)!" Not cool Tiger. Not cool. At least I tried to share.. :)

BubBowen 12-01-2011 02:56 PM

Geesh, and shipping went from $4 to $10?!?!?

NM, I had a company name and it was $10. Took out Company Name and now it's $6 economy shipping.

$6 ok for a Gigabit NIC.

Please edit the title to reflect either dead or YMMV. Misleading as it stands right now as completely free cannot be replicated.

willardfishbean 12-01-2011 02:59 PM

The changed the title now...."Now FREE Ultra PCI-E Ehternet Card (after coupon & before shipping)!" So I guess this deal is pretty much dead. Unless you want one for about $6. Hey, at least I tried to share right? :)

BubBowen 12-01-2011 03:03 PM

FYI,

If it say's only available in Store, then click the Combo below it which adds both to cart and then just delete the Toolkit.

Worked for me.

Later,

Bub

ecker2008 12-01-2011 03:06 PM

Good idea; however, I just tried that, and it appears to be no longer working. Would have been a great deal though! :nod:

rick355 12-01-2011 04:37 PM

I thought about trying to delete the toolkit also and it didn't even put the ethernet card in my basket

blownSS 12-01-2011 04:52 PM

The Kev Master has a ton of 3Com PCI cards if SDers are interested.

I've attached a screenshot of my order status so you guys can see, they let me order TWENTY of these cards for free, and all I had to pay was $9.43 for UPS Shipping. I have a tracking number and everything :D I caught the post on Facebook like 25 minutes after they posted it.

Kitto 12-02-2011 08:03 AM

My order shipped, thanks!
