May 6, 201115 yr Cheapest price I've seen! NCIX is selling these guys for $69.79 + $10 mail-in rebate http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=59671&vpn=0F12117&manufacture=Hitachi&promoid=1323 Total: CDN$59.94
May 6, 201115 yr Author For you SmartA$$es, the math doesn't work out exact because the rebate is in US dollars, the sell price is in CDN (What's that you say? The CDN dollar is worth more then the US$ What is this topsy-turvy world we live in???)
May 6, 201115 yr (What's that you say? The CDN dollar is worth more then the US$ What is this topsy-turvy world we live in???) Damn canucks. You know, I keep forgetting that the USD is just about worthless everytime I see these CDN based deals. I get all giddy inside believing this is still 1997 or something where, when a deal like this is $69.79 CDN, I think "NICE, gonna get me that 2TB for only $20". On a serious note, I remember one of my last underway periods when I was in the Navy, we went up to Halifax, NS. I stopped in at a casino there, played the slots just to kill some time. And I hit $800 for just $0.50. I was all sorts of excited.. then someone from my office said, "ya know that's only like $400 US right?".. Where's the NWO at with this one currency <grin> Let's make things simple.
May 6, 201115 yr Author Finally! The tables are turned! Frankly, I've made more trips to the US border to pick up stuff in the last year than I did in the decade before. I'm a sucker for good deals, and when the exchange rate actually gives me money... Oh Yeah!
