Code doesn't work for me. Good deal though if you need one.

I've already used promo codes on Newegg deals in the past and they paid out the full value. The "not combinable with any other offer" is more than likely referring to rebate offers.

same here. by any other offer they mean other rebate offer.

TY. This seems addictive. :)

What's diff between red mere and regular hdmi??

Here is an explanation of the RedMere technology:
LINK [redmere.com]

HDMI cables with RedMere typically go for a premium... even at places like Monoprice [monoprice.com].

Personally, I've never owned any ultra slim cables, so I guess I'll see if there's any true difference.

Someone on AVSForum described it like this:
"One of the detrimental things that happens to a signal as it travels down a cable is that the corners of the square wave get rounded off. What the Redmere chip on the receiving end does is to attempt to square up the waveform so that it looks as much like the original as possible. That doesn't fix everything detrimental that happends to the signal but helps to fix one. Because the chip is programmed for the particular cable by the manufacturer, it is more successful at it than add on equalizers. What it won't do is make a picture that doesn't have sparkles or worse better in any way."

Is this what SD has become?????

$3.60 and that's before you factor in postage and envelope plus gas to get to the post office

My mail man comes to my house :)

Ya the government comes to my house too, Mail man works for the government..
You can pay full price if you would like. Or go buy 6 cables for $5, I will make 3 bucks and use a dusty stamp i bought in 2010 and get a cable out of it.

Bought one Because its free, Not gonna be a money maker though as Newegg said this when entered Promo code, But free is free:)
Your email address is not valid for redemption of promo code BTEXVWM22.
Bought a mousepad from Newegg 2 weeks ago

what a waste of time for 3 dollars

Improvesv waves on a digital signal... What?

I don't underprehend.

so many morons on here complaining about making $3.60, when the main thing about this thread is free redmere hdmi. get a farking clue

:bounce:Why do you need to pay for gas to get to the USPS? Just put your first class mail in your mail box and the mailman will collect them on a daily basis.

BTW, effective January 27, 2013, the price of a stamp increased to 46 cents.

And go ahead to do some research on what HDMI is, what RedMere is, how digital signals travel in copper conductors, cross-talks, EMI, signal regeneration,
how much a 10-ft RedMere HDMI cable costs and etc. Then please make some informative and instrumental comments here.

:shake:

First class Forever stamps way to go, bought 200 of them on SD 23-4 years back for right around $2 :)

in 4 1...so I can gloat at work about my viewing experience with Redmere technology

Good for you. Envy. :omg:

Bought 4 stamp books, 80 Forever stamps, from Safeway last night then found the price increase.

I like that it's RedMere...those cables are expensive on MonoPrice. The Cons are that it's generic (may be crappy quality despite RedMere chip present) and Newegg-sponsored rebates are very slow. With the 20% coupon overshadowing CA sales tax, I took the plunge.

Damn.. :( 80 huh.
I havent seen 1 stamp deal since the one 4 years ago, I wish I had bough my bank accounts worth. Was 21 and didn't know how important they were haha. Sucks

The way the postal service is going, forever might not be too long.

I might recall that stamp deal 4 years ago and wish I had bought more. Doh!
:cool:

I love how "Ultra Thin" is a feature, not just a hallmark of a crappy cable.

The best deal I've seen on Stamps in the last few years was this:
THREAD

The manager ended up over-riding 2 100 roll stamps for me and my dad at $35 because the coupon wouldn't apply correctly.

Thanks OP. Didn't get discount but still bought 1. Free is Free :)

without rebates HDMI cables are 2-4 dollars

That's a great deal on stamps.

Right now I am looking for deals on envelopes too. I remember I ever bought them at a rate of 1 case, 500 #10 envelopes per 99 cents. Let me search my -F-W- history. Here you go.

Order Total $15.47

not bad for ca i suppose

Sigh. Ok, so RedMere technology is a chip that's built into the cable that allows for less copper to be used in the cable itself by correcting for signal loss over long distances.

The whole goal of RedMere is to use less materials over long distances, and to make cables that are more easily routed. I was a size queen when it came to all my cables, but just read a review for once: http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-3319...-hands-on/

I still won't pay extra for this technology, as I only really have short lengths, and I don't mind a bit of cable kinking when it comes to my $1.50, thick HDMI cables, but hey, since this is cheaper than even a plain HDMI cable...

Just want to note that TigerDirect has been very good for rebates after switching to 4myrebates. In the past about half year I've gotten countless rebates from TigerDirect without trouble, and more quickly than the other rebates.

Though as we all surely know from experience, NewEgg is better than TigerDirect overall. But TD really gets a much worse rap than they deserve.

they have been very good at cancelling orders for this, newegg and frys for the win.. yeah newegg despite the tax might be worth dealing with than thumbsdown direct

Good deal. Repped

IMO, cancelling orders is better than shipping incomplete orders or delaying orders indefinitely on backorder, which Frys has done to me several times. What's worse is it takes multiple calls to get a straight answer from Frys instead of "we don't know when we will get more stock" answers.

I know that if you pay the whole order with a TD giftcard at TD, the order never goes through. Does paying with a newegg giftcard for the whole purchase cause any problems in getting the order complete? What about rebate? TIA

How do you get these codes to work. I can never get any of these special codes and I order from Newegg all the time. Do you have to be on a special list to get these codes to work?

Ultra Thin High Performance HDMI® Cable with RedMere® Technology 10ft. (3m) FAR @ Newegg (FS with shoprunner)
 

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Pro...6882422053
$18 rebate

Thanks OP TU + Rep bought one.

Just one suggestion: maybe "SR Req'ed" should be a new shorthand for shoprunner required deals, since Newegg has so many of these.

Try signing up for their daily spam list.

Repost......

Erased !!!!

Newegg- Ultra Thin High Performance HDMI® Cable with RedMere® Technology 10ft. (3m) $1.99 AR or free with shoprunner
 

Newegg [newegg.com] has the Ultra Thin High Performance HDMI® Cable with RedMere® Technology 10ft. (3m) for $1.99 AR or free with shoprunner.

Shlocky pictures. Do they come that way? All cut open and labelled with "To the TV" already on it?

I doubt it. The other pics show a regular cable. I gave it a shot, since I have shoprunner.

let us know how you like it when you get it...

I know, I was just joking. Hope it works out for you though - big rebate and all. Is this RedMere thing for real?

Repost.

Edit: No longer repost. Threads has been merged.

doesn't work for me and i am a regular customer and receive their spam daily :(

I am sorry to hear that then. Maybe you can create another account for "your parents" then? wink wink.

thanks for that, but since we actually need it and there is a rebate for it too, i just paid tax and got what i needed in the first place.

not a very SD thing to do since it's not a MM but for $1.26 i am ok with that. I have Shoprunner to so free shipping.

unsubscribed

Thanks got one!

coupon not working for me

coupon worked for me.
Have shoprunner too... thanks SD

we'll see how the cable is.

Thanks OP.

Coupon worked for me. I was going to buy a redmere cable so why not get it FAR.

People's reactions

1) When a deal is FAR: WOW FREE!!! Thumbs up, repped thx!!!
2) When a deal actually makes $3.60 AR: Wow, what a waste of time for 3 bucks.

So true lol

will this go FP

I could use the HDMI cable but I still havent got their rebates from black Friday :(

What is a redmere technology?

Flaky technology
 

No thanks. This is flaky technology to sell thinner cheaper cable that uses less copper.
I'll stick with standard cables that don't rely on a chip to "correct" the degraded signal caused by their narrow gauge wire.


http://www.avsforum.com/t/1417609/monoprice-redmere-hdmi-cables [avsforum]
http://www.avsforum.com/t/1443594/do-monoprice-redmere-cables-boost-the-signal-for-the-audio-return-channel [avsforums]

This is technology to enable making thin HDMI cables that still work well. I don't know how that makes it flaky technology. And it currently costs more to have the chip, so that wouldn't make it cheaper. Sure, you can make a Redmere cable out of crappy wire just like you can a standard HDMI cable.

I got tired of thick gauge cables that put extra strain on connectors. I'd switch all of mine to Redmere if it weren't for the high cost.

How come this isn't FP

if one of the mods would have posted it then it would have been FP a long time ago.

Thanks got 1.

So let me get this straight, Redmere is just thinner, it doesn't provide better video quality than any old HDMI cable???

Is it possible to get the 10ft and the 15ft one and get the rebate for both?

Yes! I just ordered both at the same time.

The rebate offers are different and it asks for a "copy" or the receipt/packing slip. You can order both together and are good to go. Just make sure you send both rebates in separate envelopes.

Thanks, I added 4pts to your rep for answering that question. I was reading through both threads looking for the answer to that. After reading your post I ordered both plus the hard drive bracket. Since I have ShopRunner and use LOTs of these sorts of things I see no reason not to.


Thumbs up to the thread and reps added to the OP!

Nevermind.

Thanks for posting.

got one. thanks

It's a digital signal...you can't get better quality than an HDMI cable that's functioning properly.

HDMI is a digital signal. 0 and 1's. No voltage = 0, high voltage = 1. So you can't really improve a digital signal.

sweet, need one more "free" order w/ shoprunner to extend my SR trial for another year....

I just received the HDMI cable which took only day to ship with shop runner.

You need to subscribe to their promotion emails. Log into your account, In left navigation bar, under category Options, there is a Subscriptions. :nod:

Very good point.

Unfortunately that's not true. I it were true, any cable was able to carry unlimited data.

after you submit the rebate it will take 2-3 months to get it back.

Sooo, OOS?

yes, all gone now

More like 5 months for Newegg rebates. There's no reason it should take so long (exceeding their own stated timeline) except being customer-unfriendly to take advantage of the extra float.

that extra float in a high interest short term investment makes them some money off of the rebate money.

I submitted my rebate on Feb 22nd and tracking shows as "Your registration has been completed and we are waiting to receive the corresponding mail."

It's been almost near to 20days, and they did not receive my mail till now. What the f***.

Anyone knows how long does it take to show in their system. Do I need to call them, or just wait for few more days/weeks ??

You probably want to wait a bit longer. My min/max for them is 6 / 21 business days. With that said they haven't been as bad lately and mine (mailed same day as yours) was entered on 3/5.

mine shows mailed now.....just waiting on the envelope.

Did you ever get your envelope?

Received a $17.99 rebate card yesterday.
Good MM deal. Thanks, OP.
