i wouldn't want a sub-standard plextor drive that isn't even made by plextor
good deal though

That's an excellent deal! Since it's one of the only ways to get an excellent above average drive, quite wisely OEM'd by Plextor. You can even flash it to a BenQ DW1640 and get even better firmware and software support
Too bad it's nearly impossible to get BenQ DW1640's these days when they aren't sold as other brand name OEM's.

Some people in another forum claim that they have bought this drive from BB and drive comes even with 20 D/L which is quite questionable since the price of 20 D/L DVD+/-R is atleast $60-$80.

Yes, that's what the ad showed but my local BB had a correction on the shelf next to the drives. The correction stated that the disks are single layer TDK's.

because bb corp sent out a memo that if the customer complains about the ad, give them 20 dl instead to compensate
people have been getting 2 packs of 10 verbatims, although at this point, i am more interested to learn the media id of the fuji 15 that is $34.99 instant
wish that coupon still worked...
edit: it was memorex 15 pk instead of fuji. nm

im sorry but that wouldn't fly at our store, especially with me in the department overseeing retarded customers
i put up the disclaimers next to the drive tags on sunday, i caught it before our store was open

Well on Sunday, I purchase the Plextor 740A (black) for $31.00 (after rebates).
Yes, I got 20 TDK DVD-Rs (TTG02) in the box...
Yes, I did receive two 10-pack Verbatim DVD+R DL for free...
Could not pass up on this deal !!!!!

Hoxlund; What you have to say about the steal deal that beach hobo got from BB, are you still hiding the disclaimer from costumers?
Posted:

i never said i was hiding the disclaimer, i said i was the one that put it out, and no customers of mine can push me to give them a 20 pack of dl media

would do it if they would buy an extended warranty?
anyway i was wrong about it being 15pk fuji dl for $34.99
it was memorex instead, somebody had moved stuff around :p bleh

those kind of sales tactics don't work with me, i think there to dishonost
you should get the same kind of sales performance weather you get a warranty or not
