Thread: Amazon.com alert - PC 3518 router $199 while it lasts

    Amazon.com alert - PC 3518 router $199 while it lasts

    Amazon.com alert - PC 3518 router $199 while it lasts. You also get an additional $25 off future purchases from amazon, so the net price with free shipping is $174!

    This looks like a mistake, but I placed an order anyway and can only hope at this point.

    After I saw this, I went checking around to see what it normally goes for and found a rebate for the 7500 series. It's another $50 off!!!

    Here's the link to the rebate: http://lib.store.yahoo.net/lib/tools...-50-rebate.pdf

    Be well,

    Back up to $249 on Amazon.......can't make up their minds. Wish I could hit the site when it was $199
    If over thinking was an Olympic event, I'd win Gold every time!

    It seems that it has gone up to $249 now.

    You could keep checking back or.....you could call the customer service number and tell them that you saw it for $199 and that you would like that price. I've had to call two or three diferent times sometimes to finally get someone to give me the lower price.

    PLUS, there's still all the extra goodies.

    Ordered mine while it was stil $199. I could have saved another $25 by using my Amazon credit card rebate but I figured the price was low enough.

    You can click the help button, enter your phone number and they will call you immediatly back. I tried to bend the guy's arm, but couldn't get the 199 price. That is still a great deal though with the rebate and amazon 25 credit.

    I called the 800 number on that page (the PC 7518 page) but I notice that it is now gone.
    You can try customer service at 800-201-7575 and tell them that the price was 199 earlier in the day and if they would honor it.
    Good luck
