That is a great price for a rebadged Pioneer A07 drive.

Also, the OEM Pioneer Ao7 is only $139 w/ FREE shipping at Newegg. I just ordered an NEC 2500A there for $101.99 with FREE shipping...

I wonder if you can use it in conjunction with this Memorex rebate:

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?id=cat12105&type=page&rebateid=46019&skuid=6227978&h=387

The rebate is through Memorex, not BestBuy. And it doesn't say anything about including your BestBuy receipt.

Its a chance, I guess. Would then make it a pretty incredible price for a Pioneer drive.

It has Bestbuy's name all over it. It look's like a Bestbuy only rebate.

Well, by default IE won't print out the background when you print it so that removes all those little Best Buy images.

Although I wonder if the Offer # on the TO: line indicates that its for Best Buy. Just thought I'd mention it in case anyone wanted to try. I mean, if you're not doing anything else with your UPC code, it couldn't hurt to try it. :)

Lets see, I missed getting a free case badge on a fan I bought, and I missed a pen on some RAM. That's not too bad, I could have used the pen though...Oh well.

NewEgg has the OEM DVR-107 for $125 right now. It looks like it went out of stock today though.

Back to $129 now and in stock.

But damn those OEM Pioneer 107 prices are dropping like bricks these past month or so.
