HP $120 desktop fiasco......

1,121 1,039 August 9, 2012 at 10:04 AM in Tech & Electronics
So who got in on the $3000 PC for $120 pricing mistake that happened this past weekend? The orders were cancelled and people rec'd a refund of their $$ on top of a $200 coupon off of the HP store (no minimum purchase)

Love to hear what you all are getting with your free $200 from HP.

Don't tease the animals, they bite and it'll be your fault and there aren't any more band-aids until Schooby does the shopping on Sunday.

Have a nice visit and please tell all your friends!

Hi fellow Sd'ers,

I am aking if anyone would be so kind as to send me a code if they are not using it! Mine was erased in my spam folder and can't retreive it.

I in dire need of even the CHEAP $300 HP desktop as I am using a celeron 8 year old machine that crashes 50% of the time and do not have extra $$ to replace it being out of work!

If someone would be so kind it would be sooooooooo greatly appreciated!Thank you

Is anyone actually getting multiple items with the same coupon code? My attempt failed, but I placed both orders within 5 mins of each other.

im still trying to figure out what i want. If the coupon value is less than 200 then you can get next day air for free. The 23 led monitor is running about 40 bucks now after coupon and shipping is 5 bucks.

Everyone that is thinking those monitors will come back in stock before 18th should purchase something now before you will only be able to buy ink cartridges. They are making it harder each day for you to buy something good like the monitors. Try to login to a HPA account if you have one and check if the prices are $100 lower than what we are seeing, if not just purchase the $259 20" because the other 20" is already OOS.

an hp tv connect kit and a flash drive Big Grin The coupon is useless, it doesn't work on anything good like beats or logitech and the ips monitor went out of stock last night so i didn't have that many options. This wasn't the order i was expecting to actually receive though, my first order was a mouse, case, and some ink.

How are people putting in multiple orders?

I see The coupon you entered is invalid.

Does your price not show at 349? It showed 249 for me yesterday with coupon would have been $43 + 6 shipping. Now it's at 150 for me.

I just paid 43 for the only 23 inch monitor left in stock. It was 34 + 5 shipping and 3 tax.

Got my monitor this morning, it was the w2371d, however it wouldn't power on I called customer service and they said at first they couldn't do anything because the coupon was given out by the technical department. Then I called back and and now they are sending an x2301 with next business day shipping as a replacement. I am worried however, the rep said she would charge my card and after it shipped I would get a refund. What are the chances that I don't get a refund and have to call back and explain?
